and with longer antenna3. The head is small and eyes 
very prominent ; it is highly polished, though covered 
with a fine punctuation, dense only on the neck. The 
antennas are very long and tapering, with third joint 
much longer than any of the rest ; they are dull piceous, 
the second and third and apical joints rather clearer, and 
the scape red. The thorax is moderately narrow and 
ovate, its greatest width being a little before the middle, 
whence it narrows pretty equally to the front and behind ; 
the posterior narrowing is a little sinuated, but the hind 
angles are obtuse and rounded ; the siu'face is covered 
very densely with fine punctured rugula}. The elytra arc 
very convex, and clothed in fine fresh specimens with 
decumbent golden-tawny pubescence ; the punctures of 
the stride are very distinct.
