The following is Dr. Uhler's careful description of this genus, 

 which he renamed Pachyopsis: — 



" Broad and robust ; head from above very short, bluntly 

 rounded, including the eyes a little wider than the pronotura, the 

 vertex and front confounded in a common convexity in both 

 diameters ; ocelli on a line with the middle of the eyes, large and 

 placed remotely from each other ; front short and broad, promin- 

 ently and abruptly raised above the level of the cheeks and 

 epistoma ; epistoma flat, almost as wide as long, short and broad, 

 the end truncated, and the sides a very little oblique, or very 

 feebly sinuated; antennae short, the basal joint short, very thick, 

 rounded, the four following joints very short, narrow, tapering, 

 the apical one vA'ith a short, oblique bristle ; outer cheeks Aery 

 broad, curving bluntly to concur with the tip of the epistoma; 

 inner cheeks wider, a little longer than the epistoma with the 

 inner margin oblique and the outer margin curving interiorly and 

 making an acute tip ; pronotum transverse, of medium length ; 

 the posterior margin feebly concave, the postero-lateral margins 

 oblique, with the angles a little rounded ; tegmina moderately 

 long, not valvate, narrowing towai'ds the tip, the tip narrow and 

 obliquely rounded, inner nuirgin straight and the costal margin 

 broadly arcuated ; nervui'es straight, the outer one acutely forked 

 near the base and its two branches each forking on the last third 

 of the corium, apical cells short, the middle are shortest, quad- 

 rangular, the next outer one almost twice as long as the former, 

 the next inner one widening posteriorly and of the same length as 

 the outer, the outer marginal apical cell much longer than the 

 other and showing a tendency to reticulation, the inner marginal
