An extensive genus, many of whose species are extremely 
closely allied. It may be known by the wing cell having 
the hook-like nerve, by the shining upper surface, the 
slender second antennal joint, and the pale, easily-rubbed- 
off pubescence ; the species are mostly oval, and the @ is 
slightly more elongate than the ¢, and its antenne have 
the second joint longer and thicker; in some species also 
the sexes vary notably in colour; the tibie are armed with 
strong black spines, rising from black spets. Rostrum 
reaching to the intermediate cox or beyond them, apical 
joint of the tarsi as long as or longer than the first and 
second together. There are fifty-one species recorded by
