Deep olivaceous-green ; the elytra with a yellow oblique stripe 

 at the middle of each, extending from the front margin to a little 

 before the hind margin, two short and fine transverse white lines 

 at the posterior part of the outer margin, and a minute white spot 

 in the apical angle ; the prothorax with white patches or lines 

 upon the front angles beneath. The mesosterual epimera and the 

 sides of the metasternum, hind coxae and abdomen are also white. 

 Tbe upper surface is opaque and the head, legs and lower surface are 

 shining. The latter parts are sometimes black and the lateral and 

 apical margins of the elytra are frequently coloured deep chocolate. 

 The margin of the pronotum is sometimes vaguely reddish. 



The form is depressed, moderately elongate and slightly 

 narrowing behind. The head is densely punctured and deeply 

 notched in front. The 2^ ^'o not um is coarsely punctured, with the 

 sides strongly curved, the hind angles rounded off and the base 

 trisinuate. The scutellum is short and blunt, and the elytra are 

 distinctly punctured in rows, strongly sinuated at the sides and 

 very spinose at the apical angles. The pygidhim is coarsely 

 rugose, and the sides of the metasternum and the abdomen are 

 coarsely punctured. The/;-o)i^ tibia bears two very sharp teeth 

 and the third is distant and almost obsolete. 



$ . The front tibia is a little broader than in the male. 



The type-specimen of Fabricius has a white patch on each side 

 of the pygidium, but this is most often absent.
