Among closely allied species especially recognized by, that the thira 

 joint of maxillary palpi is more than ordinarily thickened toward the tip, 

 so that it becomes strongly reversed conical; the subuliform fourth Joint 

 is at base distinctly thickened and about as long as the third, longer

 rarely entirely brownish; legs brownish black with reddish knees and tarsi. 

 Sometimes the legs are entirely reddish-brown, and the antennal base al- 

 so brownish. 



The body is rather narrov. ; the head with fine and scattered punctation; 

 antennae rather robust, their third joint most often a little longer than 

 the second, the middle and next-last ones about twice as broad as long. 

 Pronotum is nearly as broad as elytra, anteriorly hardly narrowing, but 

 the fore-corners strongly deflexed, the dorsum convex, lather finely and 

 densely punctated, the rounded sides simple bristle-haired. Elytra as 

 long as pronotum, rather robustly and densely punctated, their posterior
