fins areas 
Black, elytra and disc of thorax shining, oblong-ovate. 
Thorax narrower than elytra, transverse; disc w ‘ith a few 
punctures and distinctly channelled ; sides reflexed, opaque. 
Elytra closely and distinctly punctured; sides scarcely 
widened below the middle; apex rounded. The anterior 
fascia has its extremities recurved towards the base, and 
is bidentate towards the apex; the second fascia has two 
teeth corresponding to those in the first, directed towards 
the base, and the extremities, and a median tooth directed 
towards the apex; neither fascia reach the suture nor 
extreme margin. Allied both to #. annularis and £. 
lunulatus, Gerst., the punctuation and form both of the 
thorax and of the markings is different from either.
