distinguished by the colour of the three posterior bands of the 

 elytra; the middle one of these is fulvous-brown in colour, 

 while the submedian band, immediately in front of it, and the 

 apical band , just behind it , are both of a somewhat greyish- 

 tawny shade. The third and fourth joints of the antermae are 

 very briefly spined at the outer distal angle.

The relatively great width of the elytra as compared with 

 the head or prothorax (the width of the elytra across the base 

 being about twice that of the base of the prothorax) gives to 

 this species a characteristic appearance. Some of its remaining 

 characters do not quite agree with those of the genus Blepe- 

 phaeus. The mesosternum has a small but distinct tubercle at 

 about the middle of its length ; the middle tibiae bear an evi- 

 dent, though feeble, oblique groove just below the middle.
