base (remaining joints mutilated in type), first joint not reaching

 coarsely darkly punctate, the lateral angles broad, short, a little

 anterior and posterior angles subacute, the lateral pronotal margins 

 sparingly dentate, an obscure central pale levigate line, and 

 between the lateral angles transversely subrugulose ; scutellum 

 more finely punctate and transversely wrinkled, the basal area 

 moderately elevated ; corium thickly, somewhat finely punctate ; 

 membrane bronzy-brown, a little passing the abdominal apex, an

The comparatively short, apically triearinate, lateral angles of 

 the pronotum will distinguish this species. It was received

 Add : Hob. Nainital and Lebong (Pusa Coll.}. Kumaon, Chau- 

 battia (A. D. Imms). 



When previously enumerating and figuring this species, I only 

 knew it by a specimen from Signoret's collection now contained 

 in the Vienna Museum and labelled " India." I am now able to 

 give more precise localities. The specimens before me vary in 

 length from 18 to 20 millim.
