Head with a central fovea, the vertex finely longitudinally stri- 

 gose; clypeus separated from the face hy a transverse curved 

 depression, its anterior border feebly emarginate ; antennae fuscous, 

 not extending to the base of the thorax, basal three joints 

 flavous, fourth to terminal joint transversely widened. Thorax 

 two and a half times as broad as long, the sides straight, slightly 

 narrowed anteriorlv, the posterior angles distinct ; median lobe
