Subdepressed, nitid, dark fuscous, sides of thorax narrowly, of the 

 elytra more broadly, fusco-rufous ; femora and upper half of tibiae light 

 yellowish-brown, the latter piceous towards the extremity ; antennae and 

 tarsi somewhat variegate, generally fusco-rufous. 



Head smooth, with elongate frontal impressions, a single setigerous 

 puncture at each front angle of the epistome and also near the middle of 

 each eye ; including the large and prominent eyes, it is about as broad 

 as the thorax ; labrum large, sex-setose. Thorax quite a third broader 

 than long, widest before the middle, gradually narrowed towards the obtuse 

 posterior angles ; its sides moderately rounded, with Avell-developed and 

 somewhat reflexed margins, base subtruncate, apex slightly incurved ; 

 the dorsal groove does not attain the apex, basal fossae large, situated 

 nearer to the sides than the middle, there is no other definite sculpture, 

 the seta at each side is placed before the middle. Elytra oblong, broader 

 than thorax, nearly thrice its length, with oblique not at all prominent 

 apices ; their striae are well marked and simple, and there is a short scutellar 

 groove on each, interstices impunctate and nearly plane, the marginal 

 pimctures are distinct near the base and apex but absent near the middle.
