short, fully twice as wide at its base as long, scarcely, sulcate and 

 without definite bounding carinae; the frontal costa is rather promi- 

 nent, the sides almost parallel, sulcate throughout, and rather coarsely 

 punctulate at sides and on the carinse, especially above and towards 

 the clypeus; the antennae are long and slender, reaching considerably 

 beyond the caudal margin of the pronotum. The latter with the 

 sides of the anterior lobe nearly parallel, the sides of the hind lobe 

 rather strongly divergent caudad; disc somewhat full, in front sub- 

 tectate, viewed laterally gently arcuate, the hind lobe flat, the median 

 carina rather prominent on the hind lobe, but becoming less so ceph- 

 alad; transverse sulci deep, but not especially wide; the hind margin 

 at middle forming a right angle; lateral lobes deep or high behind, 

 the lower edge rather strongly obliquely sinuose. Legs somewhat 

 robust and elongate. Tegmina greatly elongate, of moderate width, 

 extending fully one-fourth of their length beyond the apex of the hind 

 femora and the tip of the abdomen. Prosternal spine small, slender, 

 cylindrical, nearly erect, its apex rounded. 



General color brunneo-ferruginous. Middle of the occiput and the 

 pronotum provided with a prominent longitudinal bright ferruginous 

 band, inclining to orange, bordered on the head with black, starting 

 in front at the very top of the frontal costa and narrowing from the 

 last transverse sulcus of the pronotum to the apex of the disc. Lower 

 edges of the lateral lobes of the pronotum rather prominently bordered 

 with a wide but irregular yellowish patch. Costal margin of the 

 tegmina on their basal third also provided with a conspicuous test- 

 aceous stripe. Antennae bright orange-ferruginous, exterior face of 

 the hind femora dirty white; their genicular arcs and lobes testaceous, 

 the lunules more or less piceous; hind tibiae brunneo-cinerous, tinged 

 with purplish. 



Length of body, 9, 66 mm.; of pronotum, 14 mm.; of tegmina, 

 65.5 mm.; of hind femora, 38 mm.
