 clypeus densely covered with silvery pubescence. The 

 clypeus slightly projects towards the apex, and is indis- 

 tinctly carinate down the centre ; the apex is broadly 

 rounded, almost truncate. Base of mandibles densely 

 covered with short silvery pubescence ; the apex is broadly 

 red, thorax opaque, alutaceous, covered with a sericeous 

 short pubescence ; pronotum ending in a rounded part in 

 the centre ; mesonotum truncated at base ; metathorax 

 nearly longer than the mesothorax ; not very distinctly 

 striolated, except at the sides and apex ; the latter semi- 

 oblique, furrowed in the middle, the sides densely covered 

 with silvery pile. Abdomen pruinose, hardly longer than 

 the thorax, the apex acute ; the pygidial area very shining 

 and bearing a few punctures. Radial cellule not reaching 

 to the apex of the third cubital, wide, and very sharply 

 oblique at the apex ; the second cubital cellule shorter than
