 and sculpture, but the angles are rather more pronounced. The

 all over it. The scutellum is smooth and the ehjlra finely punc- 

 tured, some of the punctures arranged in longitudinal rows. The 

 posterior i)art of the elytral margins and also the p7/gidium are 

 rugose and \ ery scantily clothed with hair. The steimed p)>'ocess is
