£ . Face closely and very distinctly punctured ; the two 

 interantennal ridges well developed ; the marginal carinas of 

 the frontal depression well defined ; vertex shining, sparsely 

 punctured. Mesonotum sparsely and rather finely punctured ; 

 the depression at the base of the scutellum large and marked 

 with three strong longitudinal carinas ; mesopleuras almost 

 smooth behind, punctured in front. Median segment trans- 

 versely striated in the spaces between the usual longitudinal 

 carinas, the sides of the segment finely punctured-rugulose. 

 Hind coxas sparsely and finely punctured. Abdomen smooth 

 and shining ; an indistinct, transverse, impressed line near 

 the middle of the second tergite. Second cubital cell sub- 

 quadrate. The flavo-hyaline mark below the stigma extends 

 into the second cubital cell, and below the cubitus along the 

 recurrent nervure.

§ . Eufa ; mandibulis basi palpisque testaceis ; capite, tibiis pos- 

 ticus apice tarsisque posticis nigris : alis anticis fuscis, basi ad

Long. 13 mm. 



$ . Face finely and closely punctured, vertex more sparsely 

 punctured, the two interantennal ridges distinct but rather 

 low, the marginal carinas of the frontal depression well 

 marked. Antennas nearly as long as the whole insect. 

 Mesonotum shining, with a few minute punctures, the para- 

 psidal furrows distinctly crenulate ; the depression at the base 

 of the scutellum large, with three strong longitudinal carinas. 

 Median segment finely rugulose ; with a small diamond- 

 shaped enclosed area in the middle of the dorsal surface ; 

 from the apex of this area a carina runs to the apex of the 

 segment, a curved lateral carina on each side of the median 

 area and a transverse basal carina ; the sides of the segment 

 finely and closely punctured. First tergite a little more than 

 half as long again as its apical breadth ; the transverse line 

 on the second tergite almost obsolete.
