spatiis inter foveas elevatis, foveis discoidalibus fundo nigris ;

 tudinalibus dispositis, iustructis. Long. 3J lin. 



Hah. Sarawak, a single specimen (Wallace). 



Head much longer than broad ; clypeus large, smooth, im-

 on the intermediate row being less defined than those on the 

 lateral ones ; the tubercles on each row are connected by a faintly- 

 defined longitudinal costa.
