than the central, their apices roundly inwardly curved but widely 
separated ; antenniferous tubercles prominently spined, the apices 
of the spines turned inwardly, ocelli at base, nearer eyes than to 
each other, eyes large, transversely produced, scarcely projecting 
beyond the anterior angles of the pronotum ; antennae five jointed, 
first joint slightly passing apex of head, remaining joints longer and 
almost subequal in length ; pronotum about twice as broad between 
the lateral angles as medial length, lateral margins sinuate and on 
their anterior halves distinctly crenulate, the lateral angles slightly 
and subacutely produced, posterior margin truncate before scutellum, 
anterior margin moderately excavated for the reception of the head ; 
scutellum longer than broad at base, the basal angles blackly foveate, 
apical fourth slender and rounded at apex; corinm distinctly 
longer than scutellum, its apical margin oblique, the inner apical 
angle rounded ; membrane prominently obliquely veined, the veins 
about six in number, the second fureate, and with a short transverse

ing base of head, second scarcely passing the anterior coxae, third 
reaching the intermediate coxae ; metasternum slightly raised and 
broadly grooved between the coxae ; legs of moderate length, femora 
considerably longer than the tibiae, anterior femora very shortly 
and obscurely spinous near apex. Mesosternum injured by pin,
