 Elongata, subcylindrica, cupreo-aenea, nitida, antennis extror- 

 sum nigris ; thorace profunde et crebre punctato ; elytris 

 tliorace latioribus, a basi apicem versus subparallelis, apice

Head coarsely rngose-punetate ; labrum rufo-fiilvous ; anterior 

 border of epistome angulate-emarginate ; five outer joints of an- 

 tennae slightly dilated, black, six lower joints fulvous. Thorax 

 one third as broad again as long ; sides rounded, scarcely con- 

 verging in front, slightly sinuate in the middle, anterior angles 

 produced, their extreme apex obtuse ; surface closely covered with 

 deep round punctures. SciUellum rather broader than long, 

 sides diverging backwards, apex broadly rounded, basal half 

 closely punctured. Elytra broader than the thorax, slightly 

 tapering from the base backwards ; surface coarsely punctured, 

 interspaces forming irregular raised transverse strigae which ex- 

 tend across the inner disk to the suture; towards the apex near 

 the suture are three or four raised longitudinal vittae. 



The elytra are rather broader, less parallel, and more coarsely 

 punctured than in D. elegans {jjost, p. SG^).
