Head, about as broad as thorax ; ej'es contiguous in S for a 

 considerable space (with one or two exceptions), broadly separated 

 in $ , ranging from densely pubescent to absolutely bare, always 

 more hairy in S than $ except in a limited group of species in 

 which the reverse is the case; frontal triangle in 6 small, frons 

 in $ usually Avith three longitudinal channels and a more or less 

 distinct transvei'se depression just above the antennaB ; face 

 excavated below antennae and then produced into a distinct central 

 bump, being hollowed again before the produced mouth-border. 

 A peculiar generic feature is the sliglitly raised eye-)nargins 

 extending along the lower inner orbit of the eyes, bearin<j; a 

 different pubescence from that of the face, the latter being little 

 more than tomeiitum except in certain species. Antenna) with
