Tlie antenna is similar to tbat q{ fagelhitnA in tlic (bird segment l)eing long. 

 Tbe species i.s unlike any otber in jiattern. Tbe scutellum is Inteous grey, as is 

 also tbe basal edge of tbe elytra, particularly near tbe sboulders. Tbe brown 

 median spot of the elytra is ditl'use in front, rounded behind, and reaches neither 

 suture nor lateral margin : tbe brown transverse fascia placed at the beginning of 

 the apical declivity is ]iractically straight, slightly narrower than the median sjwt, 

 and does not quite reach the lateral margin. The tarsal segments have black 

 apices as usual.
