latera flavis et transverse ferrugineo-notatis ; antennis testaceis ; 

 pedibus flavis. 



Long. corp. 1| lin., lat. f lin. 



Oblong-ovate, subcylindrical, very finely pubescent, piceo-ferru- 

 gineous. Head short, transverse, slightly depressed ; above the base 

 of the antennae and between the eyes is an obsolete V-shaped fovea ; 

 the surface is finely granulated and rufo-ferrugineous. Thorax trans- 

 verse, slightly constricted towards the base ; the anterior angles are 

 subtruncate and depressed ; the sides are marginate ; near the anterior 

 margin is a distinct transverse depression, and at the base is another, 

 broader and somewhat deep depression ; the surface (when viewed 

 under a high power) is clothed throughout with fine rufo-flavous 

 pubescence. Scutellum small, fuscous. Elytra subparallel, ante- 

 medially transversely depressed ; punctate-striate, the punctures 

 being almost concealed by fine pubescence; in colour piceo-ferru- 

 gineous, with the apex, and also irregular longitudinal and transverse 

 markings flavous. Antenna? fine, slightly incrassated towards the 

 apex; the joints first and second are flavo-ferrugineous, third to 

 sixth flavous, seventh and eighth flavo-piceous, ninth to eleventh

Oblong, ovate, subparallel, deeply and coarsely punctate-striate, 

 subpubescent, flavo-ferrugineous. Head short, hardly produced in 

 front, vertical ; the eyes are globose and lateral, situated at the base 

 of the head ; the surface below and also above the base of the antennae 

 is deeply and coarsely punctate, unmarked however (as in some other 

 species) by any tubercular elevations or depressions ; clothed with ob- 

 solete pubescence, more apparently at the inner margin of the eyes ; 

 in colour rufo-ferrugineous, suffused medially with rufo-fuscous.
