 Figure 61 



Male. — Form rather slender, slightly flattened above, and moder- 

 ately shining; head bronzy green; pronotum and elytra cupreous 

 brown, and each elytron ornamented with a vague pubescent vitta; 

 beneath bronzy green, and more shining than above. 



Head with the front rather wide, nearly flat, about equal in width 

 at top and bottom, the lateral margins sinuate and vaguely con- 

 stricted at middle, and with a broad, shallow depression, extending 

 from the occiput to epistoma; surface densely granulose, coarsely 

 punctate, more or less rugose, and sparsely clothed with short, recum- 

 bent, white hairs; epistoma rather narrow between the antennae, 

 broadly, deeply, arcuately emarginate in front, and the clypeal suture 

 distinct ; antennae extending to middle of pronotum. serrate from the 

 fifth joint, and the outer joints as wide as long; eyes rather small, 

 broadly oval, and about equally rounded above and beneath. 



Pronotum about one-fourth wider than long, about equal in width 

 at base and apex, and widest at middle; sides regularly, arcuately 

 rounded from apical angles to near the posterior angles, which are 

 rectangular; when viewed from the side the marginal carina is 

 slightly sinuate, the submarginal carina nearly straight, the two 

 carinae rather narrowly separated anteriorly, and connected to each 

 other near the base ; anterior margin strongly sinuate, and the median 

 lobe broadly rounded; base feebly emarginate at middle of each 

 elytron, with the median lobe feebly produced, and subtruncate in 

 front of scutellum; disk moderately convex, with broad, more or 

 less distinct median depressions, arranged longitudinally, a broad, 

 shallow depression on each side along the lateral margin, and with 

 sharply defined prehumeral carinae; surface finely, transversely ru- 

 gose, finely, sparsely punctate, and sparsely clothed with short, recum-
