  Entirely 
  brownish 
  red, 
  densely 
  clothed 
  with 
  greyish 
  de- 
  

   cumbent 
  setse, 
  with 
  a 
  very 
  few 
  isolated 
  erect 
  hairs 
  near 
  the 
  

   sides 
  of 
  the 
  elytra. 
  

  

  It 
  is 
  elongate, 
  parallel-sided, 
  and 
  depressed. 
  

  

  The 
  eyes 
  are 
  very 
  large 
  and 
  the 
  head 
  finely 
  granulated 
  in 
  

   front 
  and 
  densely 
  rugulose 
  behind, 
  the 
  clypeus 
  small, 
  

   broadly 
  semicircular, 
  with 
  the 
  margin 
  strongly 
  reflexed. 
  

   The 
  ])ronotum 
  is 
  very 
  short, 
  uneven, 
  and 
  finely 
  rugulosely 
  

   ]ninctured, 
  with 
  its 
  sides' 
  gently 
  rounded, 
  the 
  front 
  angles 
  

   l)lunt 
  and 
  the 
  hind 
  angles 
  indicated 
  but 
  almost 
  rounded 
  off. 
  

   The 
  scutellum 
  is 
  finely^ 
  punctured 
  and 
  the 
  elytra 
  finely 
  

   rugosely 
  punctured, 
  with 
  the 
  costaB 
  narrow 
  and 
  inconspicuous. 
  

   The 
  pygidium 
  is 
  coriaceous 
  and 
  clothed 
  with 
  rather 
  long 
  erect 
  

   hairs. 
  The 
  antennae 
  are 
  10-jointed, 
  joints 
  3 
  to 
  6 
  being 
  elon- 
  

   gate 
  and 
  nearly 
  equal. 
  The 
  front 
  tibia 
  is 
  long 
  and 
  armed 
  

   with 
  three 
  sharp 
  teeth, 
  occupying 
  less 
  than 
  half 
  its 
  length. 
  

   The 
  second 
  and 
  third 
  teeth 
  are 
  farther 
  apart 
  than 
  the 
  tirst 
  

   and 
  second, 
  and 
  are 
  separated 
  by 
  a 
  sharp 
  notch. 
  The 
  longer 
  

   front 
  and 
  middle 
  claws 
  are 
  minutely 
  cleft, 
  and 
  the 
  shorter 
  

   claw 
  of 
  the 
  hind 
  foot 
  is 
  more 
  tiian 
  half 
  as 
  long 
  as 
  the 
  other. 
  

   The 
  hind 
  tibia 
  is 
  a 
  little 
  contracted 
  at 
  the 
  end. 
  

  

  I 
  have

  It 
  is 
  very 
  near 
  A. 
  ciibratus 
  and 
  dlstivguendus, 
  but 
  easily 
  

   recogtiized 
  by 
  the 
  sharp 
  notch 
  separating 
  the 
  two 
  upper 
  teeth 
  

   of 
  the 
  front 
  tibia.
