Hah. Port Dennison. 



The dark stripes on the elytra are due to the sparseness of 

 the scales, which varies considerably in different examples ; 

 the denticulations or spines on the tibiae are well marked, and 

 occur also in tlie two preceding species, but are nearly hidden 

 by the hairs which arc generally present on that part in all 

 Curculionidae.
