Head broadly trigonal, it? liind angles directed outwardly 

 beyond the widest part o£ the thorax, antennal tubercles 

 somewhat flattened ; the frontal channel is deep, moderately 

 broad, and extends as far as the back of the eyes, and a fine 

 stria proceeds further back, the occipital fovere are small. 

 Thorax convex, quite as broad as it is long, cordate, widest 

 and strongly rounded near tlie front, much contracted behind ; 

 median depression subquadrate, basal fovese small and 

 punctit'orm, lateral fovese deep but not prolonged as far 

 forwards as the middle, on the centre of the disc there is an 

 abbreviated linear impression. Elytra hardly any longer 

 than the thorax, a third broader than long, a good deal 

 narrowed towards the base ; sutural striaj deep and broad, 

 the dorsal ones much shorter and not distinctly punctate or 

 divided, there are no punctures between the strire. Hind 

 hody nearly double the length of the elytra, the second and 

 third exposed segments about equal, the terminal attenuate, 

 with a short appendage at each side. 



AntenncB rufescent, longer than the head and thorax, with 

 slender outstanding pubescence ; basal joint cylindric, second 

 stout, fully half the length of the first, slightly narrowed 

 near the base, third small, rather longer than broad, nearly 

 oval ; joints 4-6 oblong, seventh and eighth slightly broader, 

 conical, ninth and tenth transversely quadrate, eleventh 

 longer than the penultimate. 



Underside rufescent, finely punctate, with conspicuous 

 vestiture. Hind angles of the head transversely concave 

 throughout, the middle transversely bi-impressed and obli- 

 quely ciliate. Third and fourth ventral segments, singly, 

 slightly longer than the fifth, which is truncate at the 

 extremity, sixth short, the supplementary oblong, rather 

 narrow, with a separate appendage at each side. 



Resembles S. eminetis, 2121, but more slender, with less 

 robust legs and antenna\ The hind angles of the head are 

 rather more acuminate and outwardly prolonged, and the 

 basal fovese are smaller. In 2724 the elytra are less nar- 

 rowed towards the base, the suture is minutely sculptured, 

 the dorsal striae are divided into two nearly equal portions, 

 and there is no median stria on the thorax.
