  Head 
  smooth, 
  conical, 
  white; 
  antennae 
  twice 
  as 
  long 
  as 
  the

  green 
  towards 
  the 
  base, 
  afterwards 
  with 
  long 
  black 
  

   spaces,

  the 
  latter 
  half 
  almost 
  entirely 
  black; 
  scape 
  

   whitish 
  below, 
  above

   Pronotum

  only 
  slightly 
  marked, 
  not

  ; 
  the 
  longitu- 
  

   dinal 
  sulcus 
  very

  of 
  the 
  

   first 
  transverse 
  sulcus 
  ; 
  the 
  surface 
  is 
  marked 
  with 
  small, 
  

   scattered, 
  reddish-brown, 
  raised 
  granules, 
  and 
  the 
  deflexed 
  

   lobes 
  are 
  strongly 
  serrated

  mediastinal 
  nervure

  reddish 
  grey 
  for 
  a 
  short 
  distance. 
  Beneath 
  the 
  

   mediastinal 
  nervure 
  are 
  three 
  large 
  triangular 
  white 
  spots, 
  

   each 
  bisected 
  by 
  a 
  nervure, 
  and 
  bordered, 
  except 
  at 
  the 
  base, 
  

   with 
  black. 
  Just 
  above 
  the 
  base 
  of 
  the 
  mediastinal 
  nervure 
  

   is 
  another 
  small 
  triangular 
  white 
  spot, 
  and 
  there 
  is 
  another 
  

   small 
  one, 
  of 
  irregular 
  shape, 
  and 
  enclosing 
  a

  the 
  middle 
  of 
  the 
  inner 
  margin.
