Antenna^", with the lOtli to 19th joints white except above ; the 

 scape rufous beneath. Face and clypeus strongly and closely 

 punctured and tliickly covered with white pubescence. Front above 

 and clypeus closely and distinctly punctured. Mesonotum closely 

 punctured and thickly covered with short black hair. Scutellum

 with longish pale hair. The base of the post-scutellum is obliquely 

 depressed ; its apex has an oblique straight slope. Areola smooth 

 and shining ; the posterior median area closely transversely striated ; 

 the other area) closely and distinctly punctured ; the spiracular

 lateral arese are coarser, more irregular and more widely separated. 

 Pro- and mesopleurts closely and minutely punctured, the apex and 

 middle of the former closely and the lower half of the latter, more 

 widely and strongly striated. The metapleurae, if anything, are
