carinae curve inwards to the extremity of the frontal area, on 

 which they are obsolete, though there is a slight carina in front 

 on each side of the median carina ; pronotum pointed at extremity ,^ 

 extending about as far as the abdominal appendages, and with 

 very large wing-like lateral expansions. Hind femora very stout 

 and rounded above, spines of hind tibiae very small.

 fig- 1- 



Body short and broad, thickly granulated. Eyes large, the 

 vertex above triangular, and narrowed in front till there is only 

 space for the not very prominent carina, which is only bifid for a 

 short distance between the antennae ; below the antennae it is just 

 perceptible as a slight elevation to the extremity of the clypeus. 

 The wing-like lateral expansions of the pronotum are very con- 

 spicuous. The stout hind femora have oblique wrinkles on the 

 upper outer area, and much longer oblique striae on the lower 

 outer ai*ea ; the under surface bounded by the two lower carinae is 

 flat, and black ; hind tibiae with small terminal spines, and the 

 spines on the upper surface minute ; pulvilli on the under surface 

 of the first joint of the tarsi very inconspicuous. 



Length 9 mm. ; hind femur, 5 mm.
