In Anthribola—to which Eccrisis is nearly allied—the 
elytra are dehiscent from the base, and the scape, longer 
and nearly straight, extends nearly to the posterior 
margin of the eye. The specimen here described is 
probably a female.

This genus is differentiated from all the genera of 
Toxotine, to which it belongs, in its emarginate eyes, 
and the insertion of the antenne close to them, The
