Long. (cap. excl.) 15 mm. 



Perak (W. D,iherty) ; 1 (?. ♦ 



Not very nearly allied to any of tlie otlier known species, and easily recognised 

 by tlie uniformly ashy grey j)ronotum and elytra. 



The head and rostrnm are yellowish clay-colour above with a black median 

 stripe, and bear a patch of the same pubescence underneath at the sides. The 

 antenna is entirely black, non-jiubescent with the exception of the last two 

 segments, which bear minute hairs ; segment :5 short, 2 to 9 more or less com- 

 pressed, granulose, sulcate on the inner side. Prothorax much longer than broad. 

 Elytra broadly depressed at the suture, impressed on the declivous apical area 

 near the suture and somewhat less strongly outwardly, so that a very olituse ridge 

 is formed on each elytrum. 



The underside is pubescent ashy grey ; the centre of the prosternum bare of 

 pubescence, convex and studded with granules. The tibiae and tarsal segments are 

 black at the apices.
