In gcneral appearance similar to the preceding (= C. clan- 

 destina) ; but the flat triangulär space between the eyes is not 

 bounded by a raised line; the ej'es are more widely apart, owing 

 to the greater breadth of the head., the antennae have the seventh 

 to tenth joints transverse, the prothorax larger, with its sidcs 

 gradually rounded. from near the base, giving Icss prominence to 

 the anterior angles, and the Striae on the elytra more distincth' 

 punctured, the int erme diäte and posterior tarsi are also shorter. 



Die Beschreibung paßt auf mehrals ein Dutzend Arten.
