 Antennce with joints 3rd to 11th sharply edged in front. 

 ProthoruA' ivith its lateral edge at some distance from the coxal 

 cavity and the prosternal suture, the iniers^tace marlced in 

 the female by a reddish callosity. Elytra; each ivith at least

S . Dark brown, the elytra and antennae i-eddish brown ; sparsely 

 covered with yellowish tawny pubescence which is resti-icted 

 on the elytra to linear tracts lying along the channels between 

 the cost^e. Antennae a httle longer than the body ; third joint 

 a little more than t\\ice as long as the first, and about equal 

 in length to the fourth and fifth united. Prothorax with its 

 lateral edge distinct, extended into an angulate process at the 

 base and into a short blunt tooth (sometimes obsolete) at the 

 front angle ; notum finely granulate. Elytra finely granulate ; 

 each with t\vo acute dorsal coslte extending from the base, the 

 inner one for about two-thirds of its length, the outer one almost 

 to the apex ; a sharp lateral costa runs from a little behind the 

 shoulder to the apical margin and a very short fourth costa lies 

 midway between the outer dorsal and the lateral costa ; apex with 

 a sharp spine at the suture. Last ventral segment subtruncate 

 behind. Claw-joint of tarsi as long as the first two joints 

 united.

 agrees very closely in structure.
