deeply sulcate ; the pimcturhij^ of the remaining striae distinct, and 

 deeply impressed in their middle portion, indistinct and nearly ob?olete

 each impressed with a single row of fine punctures placed midway 

 between the strife ; those in the outer interspaces are larger and deeper, 

 rendering the strife themselves confused : the exti'eme basal and lateral 

 margin, a broad sutural vitta, abbreviated at the extreme apex of the 

 el>i;ra, together with two broad transverse fascife, the first immediately 

 before the middle, the other halfway between the latter and the apex,
