 Elytral sqiiamules very fine, white, disposed in two somewhat even lines on 

 each interval ; legs blackish to dark rufo-piceous. 

 Elytral squamules uniform throughout, slightly broader only near the

Elytral squamules much coarser on intervals two to four, for a short distance 

 behind the middle, forming a cloud-like spot ; form more broadly rhom-
