is smooth and rather truncate; elytra with obvious transverse 
depression where the punctures are enlarged, becoming foveate, 
especially in the ?; the legs are eneous with tibia dark rufous, 
shading off into lighter on the apex and tarsi; the upper rear 
edge of the front ¢ tibia bas a comb or fringe of long golden 
hair, very noticeable ; the curve at the end of the ¢ middle tibia

¢. There are sparse white hairs on the head, longer and denser 
on the petiole and apex of abdomen. The pleure are covered with 
dense white pilosity, and on the legs, the hairs, though less dense, 
are longer and more conspicuous. 
Frons, vertex and occiput strongly arcuate rugose; one strong 
carina between the posterior ocelli and two behind them ; ocellar 
space depressed. Posterior margin of head broad and slightly re- 
flexed. Cheeks and temples smooth, with a few setiferous punctures. 
Second flagellar joint fully twice as long as first, third a little longer 
than second. Prothorax transcarinate; semiannular smooth and 
laterally hairy. Scutellum centrally smooth, lateral lobes coarsely 
rugose-punctate. Mesonotum coarsely transcarinate. Propleurz 
finely, mesopleure coarsely punctate. Metapleurw and median seg- 
ment cribrate punctate, and separated by a strong carina, which is 
anteriorly somewhat rugose, posteriorly smooth and shining. Petiole 
trans-striate, basally more coarsely, shorter than rest of abdomen, 
which is smooth. Hind coxe stout, coarsely transrugose; femora 
smooth, bidentate, the teeth long and acuminate; tibie as long as 
femora and trochanters, strongly compressed in basal third. 
Black; head, scape and apex of anterior femora red, frontal
