Body above and abdomen beneath more or less ferruginous- 

 brown ; face, sternum and legs brownish ochraceous ; tegmina 

 brownish ochraceous, the base of costal area piceous, remainder of

 at right angles to each other fuscous-brown ; wings hyaline, slightly 

 fuliginous, the veins fuscous ; vertex broader than long, centrally 

 and marginally ridged ; pronotum narrow, strongly anteriorly 

 produced in front of eyes, posteriorly deeply angularly sinuate, 

 all the margins ridged and with a prominent central longitudinal 

 carination ; mesonotum long, tricarinate ; face elongate, the 

 margins ridged, centrally longitudinally carinate, its base con- 

 derably above eyes and truncate, gradually widened towards 

 clypeus before which it is obliquely turned inwardly ; clypeus short 

 and centrally carinate ; rostrum reaching the posterior coxae ; 

 posterior tarsi with two spines somewhat close together beyond
