The head is much narrower than pronotum, dorsally flatly depressed, 

 with scattered and rather fine punctation, and together with pronotum 

 and elytra with extremely finely shagreened surface, its sides with out- 

 standing, fine and short bristles; eyes small; temples only margined pos-

 often a little longer than the second, the fourth as long as broad and 

 often (in the a) equally as robust as the fifth, the middle joints (5-7), 

 especially in the d , about as long as broad, the next-last feebly, yet 

 distinctly, especially in the o , transverse, distal joint tapering, as 

 Icng as the two preceding joints together. Pronotum is somewhat narrower 

 than elytra, 1* times as broad as long, with feebly and smoothly rounded 

 sides with a few robust, black bristles and several finer erect bristle- 

 hairs, flatly convex, with rather fine and scattered, not deep punctation, 

 in the p often with a merely suggested, in the o with one as a rule distinct, 

 broad, irregular longitudinal impressiom at middle. The elytra are . longer 

 than pronotum, with a little finer and denser punctation than this. Tne 

 first three free dorsal Joints of abdomen rather densely and finely pun:> 

 tated, the fourth sparsely, the fifth simply punctated, almost smooth. The 

 first four free dorsal joints are depressed at base, the fourth in the a
