and stigma piceous, radix flavous. Abdomen flavo-testaceous. 

 Coxae and trochanters black ; femora and tibiae concolorous 

 with abdomen ; tarsi infuscate. 



This genus bears the general facies of the Acoenitini,

 place it at the end of the latter group. 



I captured one Ç in the environs of Tunis in April 191 1.
