9 . Clypeus small, triangular and .almost smooth. Head shining, 

 sparsely punctured, the antennae gradually thickened from the base 

 of the flagellum, the joints except the second much broader than 

 long ; eyes very feebly emarginate on the inner margin, the ocelli 

 placed well forward, the anterior ocellus nearly as far from the 

 posterior margin of the head as from the base of the clypeus. 

 Pronotum as broad as the head, as long as the mesonotum, the 

 anterior margin depressed and broadly emarginate, finely and 

 closely punctured with a row of larger punctures on the anterior 

 and posterior margins. Mesonotum short, sparsely punctured; 

 scutellum rather large, broadly rounded at the apex ; median seg- 

 ment short and broad, truncate posteriorly and slightly broadened 

 from the base, very closely and minutely punctured. Abdomen 

 much longer than the head, thorax and median segment combined, 

 broader than the thorax ; finely punctured, more closely at the base 

 of the segments than at the apex, shining ; the pygidium rounded at 

 the apex, the epipygium thickly clothed with coarse fulvous 

 pubescence. As in other species of the genus, the intermediate 

 coxae are widely, the posterior rather less widely, but very dis- 

 tinctly, separated. The radial cell is rounded at the extreme apex. 

 Tarsal ungues bifid. 



Black; the mandibles and antennpe fusco-ferruginous ; an inter- 

 rupted transverse band close to the posterior margin of the pronotum, 

 a transverse spot on the posterior margin of the mesonotum, a small 

 spot at the base of the median segment, a spot on the sides of the 

 prothorax close to the anterior angles, a spot on the mesopleuraj at
