Head coarsely punctured, front impressed with the usual longi- 

 tudinal groove ; anterior margin separated from the encarpae and 

 epistome by a deep sutural groove, deeply sinuate on either side, 

 the middle portion produced into a broad rounded lobe, lateral 

 angles distinct but rounded ; epistome much broader than long, 

 apex deeply concave-emarginate, sides converging backwards ; 

 surface closely punctured ; encarpae cultril'orm, their surfaces 

 nearly plane ; antennae half the length of the body, six lower 

 joints fulvous, more or less obscured with piceous, five outer 

 joints broadly dilated, black, seventh and three following joints 

 giadi'.ally increasing in width, eleventh obtuse. Thorax more 

 than a third broader than long, sides nearly straight and parallel 

 at the extreme base, thence rounded and converging to the apex, 

 hinder angles acute ; above transversely convex, sides strongly 

 dt flexed in front; surface somewhat coarsely punctured. Elytra 

 less parallel than in the majority of the species, ovate-oblong, 

 convex, slightly excavated transversely below the basilar space ; 

 humeral callus moderately prominent, bounded within by a longi- 

 tudinal depression ; finely but rather deeply punctured, the punc- 

 tures arranged in longitudinal rows, which approximate in pairs ; 

 alternate interspaces towards the apex and on the outer disk 

 thickened, one just within the lateral margin costate.
