Female: This species is closely allied to the preceding one; it 
differs, however, in the following points: the punctures on the head 
are less rugose, the gen do not project conspicuously, the prothorax 
has a transverse band of minute scabrose punctures along the 
anterior margin only, the other punctures are round and not very 
closely set, and the sides of the prothorax, the basal part of the 
elytra, and the whole pectus have a conspicuously long flavescent 
pubescence ; the colour is also much lighter, the elytra and under side 
are somewhat testaceous. 
Length 15-16 mm. ; width 8 mm.
