Front flattened, coarsely and irregularly, but not very closely 

 punctured, impressed in the middle with a single deep fovea ; eyes 

 black, deeply notched; antennae shorter than half the length of 

 the body; second joint short, moniliform, third elongate, sub- 

 filiform, fourth half the length of the third, fifth and following 

 joints compressed and dilated, fifth to the tenth very sparingly 

 clothed with robust hairs, subtrigonate, the fifth one-fourth longer 

 than the sixtli, the rest nearly equal, the eleventh subovate, equal 

 in length to the fifth. 'J'horax rather broader than long, sides 

 straight, very slightly converging from base to apex ; apical 

 border truncate, obsoletely sinuate in the middle; upper surface 

 smooth and nitidous, bounded posteriorly by a more or less dis- 

 tinct transverse groove, which is sometimes entirely obsolete, 

 remotely punctured, the punctures large and deeply impressed, 

 being irregularly scattered over the whole surface ; on the an- 

 terior disc, just behind the apical margin, is a large ill-defined 

 shallow triangular depression ; on either side at the base, imme- 

 diately in front of the posterior angle of the thorax, is a short 

 obtuse protuberance. Scutellum triangular, its apex distinctly 

 notched. Elytra much broader than the thorax, sides parallel, 

 above convex, somewhat flattened along the suture; humeral 

 callus prominent, laterally produced, its apex obtuse ; surface sub- 

 remotely punctured, sparingly clothed with suberect fulvous hairs.
