The species of this genus resemble those of Ad'ixus in form, but 

 differ by iiaving the front margin of thorax straight, the sutures 

 separating the side pieces of ]irosternum w holly obliterated, and the 

 legs much longer. From XaiiUionid they may be known by the cyl- 

 indrical thorax and larger size. 'I'he males have the front tibia^ 

 curv(Hl inwards near the tip.
