Apparently closely allied to crassicornis, Mor., but there 

 is no mention in the description of that species of the 

 peculiar form of the mesonotum, and the arrangement of 

 the white pattern on its abdomen appears to be quite 

 different, each segment having 2 oval spots widely 

 separated from the margin, whereas in this species they 

 have wide bands.
