Testaceous ; terminal joints of antenna? fuscous. Elytra very 

 pale, a humeral, another spot near scutellum and two at middle 

 placed transversely, black.

 thorax (in one specimen with an indication of four small spots). 

 Elytra much less strongly punctured, the punctures more regu- 

 larly placed, the spots of different shape, those at the base con- 

 nected, the humeral spot small and round, the inner one much 

 larger and subtriangular in shape; of the lower spots one is attached 

 to the lateral margin and is oblong, the other is placed close to 

 the suture, somewhat subtriangular. Beneath and the legs testa- 

 ceous, finely clothed with yellow hairs ; the tarsi slightly fuscous, 

 their first joint distinctly longer than the others. 



Length 5 mm.
