Thorax with seven distinct areolets, the mesial one very narrow ; 

 the anterior border rather roughly punctured ; the discoidal and 

 basal areolets slightly dusky. Elytra with the four costae well

A very dull species, with a woolly appearance above. The thorax 

 is short, very much rounded anteriorly, with seven areolets, the dis- 

 coidal one broad, the anterior ones roughly punctured ; the yellow

 each elytron, but the second, fourth, and sixth are a little more 

 elevated. The sterna and base of the femora are pitchy yellow ; the 

 abdomen pitchy.
