  Body 
  slender, 
  compressed, 
  very 
  thinly 
  pilose. 
  Head 
  not 
  prominent, 
  

   the 
  summit 
  gently 
  arched, 
  the 
  fastigium 
  descending 
  with 
  moderate 
  

   rapidity, 
  the 
  face 
  retreating 
  considerably; 
  interspace 
  between 
  the 
  eyes 
  

   broad, 
  the 
  fastigium 
  scarcely 
  sulcate, 
  the 
  frontal 
  costa 
  rather 
  narrow, 
  

   not 
  nearly 
  so 
  broad 
  as 
  the 
  space 
  between 
  the 
  eyes, 
  sulcate, 
  percurrent, 
  

   and 
  subequal; 
  eyes 
  moderate 
  in 
  size, 
  not 
  very 
  prominent, 
  similar 
  in 
  the 
  

   two 
  sexes, 
  about 
  half 
  as 
  long 
  again 
  as 
  broad, 
  and 
  distinctly 
  longer 
  than 
  

   the 
  anterior 
  infraocular 
  portion 
  of 
  the 
  genae; 
  antennae 
  moderately 
  

   stout, 
  somewhat 
  longer 
  (male) 
  or 
  a 
  little 
  shorter 
  (female) 
  than 
  the 
  head 
  

   and 
  pronotum 
  together. 
  Pronotum 
  subequal, 
  even 
  in 
  the 
  female, 
  very 
  

   feebly 
  and 
  gradually 
  enlarging 
  in 
  passing 
  backward, 
  with 
  a 
  distinct 
  

   percurrent 
  median 
  carina, 
  the 
  disk 
  very 
  broadly 
  subtectate, 
  passing 
  by 
  

   a 
  rounded 
  angle 
  hardly 
  forming 
  a 
  lateral 
  carina 
  into 
  the 
  vertical 
  lateral
