ceis, tarsia brunneo'variis. 

 Hab. Brazil (Para). 



Reddish brown, closely pubescent, with numerous small 

 ochreous spots, which on the elytra are more or less confluent, 

 giving them a somewhat patchy appearance ; antennae reddish 

 brown, the club darker, except the last joint, which is white;
