3. More robust than /uteipes, Walk., which it resembles 
at first glance. Antenne distinctly longer than head and 
pronotum together, filiform. Frontal ridge convex, without 
any trace of an impression near ocellum, sparsely impresso- 
punctate. Temporal foveolz small, shallow, elongato-rhom- 
boidal, not sharply defined. Fastigium of vertex scarcely 
reclinate, distinctly marginated, with an ovoidal impression ; 
lateral carinule converging between the eyes and prolonged 
into two parallel occipital carinule, not reaching pronotum ; 
the feeble median carinula begins beyond the middle of the 
impression and reaches the pronotum. Pronotum rounded, 
gradually narrowed anteriorly; median carina well-developed, 
almost straight in profile, intersected just behind its middle 
by the hind transverse sulcus; lateral carine strongly” 
convergent between the fore margin of pronotum and the 
first transverse sulcus, which intersects them, but does not 
reach the median carina; from the first suleus backwards 
the lateral carinz are strongly divergent, straight, and reach 
the hind margin of pronotum, being interrupted in the 
middle by the hind sulcus; hind angle of pronotal disc 
obtuse, rounded at the apex; lateral lobes minutely 
rugulose, with an oval impression in the middle of upper 
margin, with fore and hind margins straight, lower margin 
very obtusely angulate behind its middle, fore angle very 
obtuse, hind angle a little more than 90°, both angles 
rounded at the apex. Elytra reaching behind the knees, 
with apical third attenuate ; mediastinal area reaching to 
the middle of elytra, with a dilatation in its middle, with a 
false vein and a few oblique veinlets ; scapular area reaching 
the apical third of elytra, dilated, especially beyond its 
middle, with regular oblique veinlets; externo-medial area 
narrow, gradually widened towards the apex; discoidal area 
as wide as the interulnar, irregularly though not densely 
venulated, with cells in part disposed in two rows; fore and 
middle radial veins straight, the latter bifurcate in the 
apical third; hind radial slightly bent backwards, bifurcate 
about the middle of elytra; hind ulnar and dividing veins 
straight. Wings scarcely shorter than elytra, twice as Jong 
as broad. Hind tibiz armed with four apical spurs, the 
two outer being about half as short as the upper inner one,
