I have only seen the female which, compared with the same 

 sex in B. undulala, differs in the shorter prothorax, parallel at 

 the sides behind the abruptly contracted anterior portion , and 

 more tuberculate elytra. The females in this genus have the 

 antenna3 inserted near the middle of the rostrum and not at 

 the apex as in the males; the two basal joints of the funicle 

 are also considerably shortened, at least in B. undulala.
