  Prothorax 
  convex, 
  a 
  third 
  as 
  wide 
  again 
  as 
  head,

  turning 
  the

   aciculate; 
  7 
  striae 
  (including 
  marginal 
  one), 
  not 
  reaching 
  base, 
  

   impunctate 
  on

  very 
  large 
  punctures, 
  which 
  

   are 
  more 
  numerous 
  and 
  very 
  irregular 
  on 
  the 
  last 
  one; 
  this 
  has

   large 
  (presumably 
  setiferous) 
  pore

  much 
  

   smoother 
  head, 
  with 
  frontal 
  furrows 
  not

  eye, 
  prothorax 
  

   quite 
  smooth,

   actually 
  on 
  border 
  (showing 
  a 
  distinct 
  nick 
  in 
  the 
  marginal 
  

   outline), 
  striae 
  punctured 
  throughout, 
  though 
  very 
  finely 
  

   on

  4 
  and 
  5 
  a

  1-3, 
  

   and 
  becoming 
  carinate 
  further 
  from 
  apex; 
  epipleurae

  6 
  

   or 
  8

  There 
  is 
  a 
  second 
  example 
  of 
  0.

  also 
  from 
  

   Ceylon, 
  in 
  the 
  British 
  Museum
