[April, 



rotundato-triangular, about twice as long as it is high. Mesosterual lobes 

 separated by an interspace about twice as broad as it is long, and distinctly 

 broader than one of the lobes. INIetasterual interspace almost twice as broad 

 as it is long. Elytra about five times as long as their maximal width, 

 gradually and not strongly narrowed towards the obliquely rounded apex ; 

 nuire than the basal half densely reticulated, subcoriaceous ; mediastinal area 

 rather hroad, quickly narrowed at the apex, with a distinct false vein ; scapular 

 area in its middle a little narrower than the mediastinal, sinuate, gradually 

 narrowed towards the apex, with a false vein beyond the middle, not reaching 

 the apex of the area ; radial veins distinctly sinuate ; discoidal area densely 

 and irregularly reticulated, somewhat broader than the mediastinal area in its 

 broadest part ; the false discoidal vein well developed, though in the apical 

 part somewhat irregular, in the basal half subparallel to the hind radial vein, 

 and beyond the middle approaching to the latter, but not touching it ; 

 inierulnar area in its broadest part as wide as the discoidal area, with about 

 five irregular rows of cells and a scarcely developed, irregular, false vein ; the 

 interfurcal area at its base about half as broad as the discoidal, slightly 

 narrowed towards the apex, with 3-4 very irregular rows of cells; more than 

 the basal third of the apical part of elytra rather densely and irregularly 

 reticulated, subcoriaceous, the rest hyalinous with regular elongated cells ; 

 the axillar vein confluent apically with the anal vein. Wings rather broad, 

 with two apical lobes rounded. Hind femora broad basally, with the apex 

 attenuate ; the upper carina regularly bent, without a preapical emargination. 



Coloration brownish ochraceous, densely raarmorated with dark chocolate- 

 brown and whitish. Antennae pale ochraceous, somewhat darker apicalh^, 

 with brownish rings. Face whitish, with dark grey puncturation ; margins of 

 the frontal costa near the fastigium and not far above the clypeus, black ; 

 cheeks whitish ochraceous with grey marmoration, dark grey punctures and 

 one black spot near the edges of the clypeus. Fastigium and vertex 

 ochraceous, densely marmorated with velvety-black. Occiput of a lighter 

 shade than the vertex, with an indefinite dark median fascia and sharply 

 defined from above blackish postocular fasciae. Pronotum ochraceous ; its 

 middle part marmorated with black and velvety-brown, while the sides of the 

 disc are paler, forming an X-shaped design; the two callous tubercles in the 

 middle of the disc, before the hind sulcus, white ; hind margin with three 

 pairs of brown spots ; the lateral lobes with an indistinct dark fascia along the 

 upper margin and with a velvety -brown spot in the middle, surrounded by 

 whitish. Elytra ochraceous ; the basal third densely marmorated with 

 chocolate-brown, the colour being darker along the apical border, which is 

 irregular and oblique; the postmedian fascia brownish, distinctly interrupted 

 between the radial veins and suddenly widened behind them; the apical third 

 part of the elytra with irregularly scattered brownish spots, more dense at 

 the base of that part where an indefinite fascia is formed by them. "VVings 

 hyalinous; a broad black fascia starts from the middle of the fore margin and 

 runs towards the hind angle, but neither reaches the latter nor touches the 

 hind margin ; the fascia is distinctly constricted at the anal vein, and its post- 

 anal part is then suddenly widened, being in its broadest part more than twice 

 as broad as the preanal part ; its outer margin is very convex, while the inner 

 one is only so feebly ; the veins and veinlets in the apical lobes are brownish.
