" T. (Abromce) apicali, Germ., maxime afiinis, operculis nonnihil longioribus, apice obtusius rotundatis, 

 tegminibus apice immaeulatis, area ulnari interiore latiore, apice obtusiore, angulo ejusdem apicali 

 exteriore minus obtuso, fronteque paullo minus tumida differt. Fascia inter ocellos et oculos maculaque 

 anterior verticis, angulus apicalis interior jugorum lora et clypeus nigra. Thorax macula anteriore, 

 maculis duabus discoidalis, impressionibus, lateralibus et postica nigris. Scutellum maculis quattuor

 jugorum pallide testaceo-flavescentibus, vitta media limboque postico thoracis pallidis ; segmentis dorsalibus 

 abdominis, excepto limbo apicali, in fusco-testaceum vergentibus, margine basali nigricante ; vitta cosarum 

 anticarum, femoribus anticis subtus, femoribus posterioribus, parte superiore apiceque exceptis, nee noa
