 with a point a little behind the spiracles, a spot at basal 

 angles of third ventral segment, and a me<lian spot on sixth

 tween the cicatrical areas and the apical mar«^in^ a low of 

 punctures immediately within the lateral margins, and 

 numerous partly thick-set punctures which form a fascia 

 conn<*cting the humeral processes and emitting from its 

 middle an irregular contimiation forward to a little beyond 

 the middle of the pronotum ; scutellum with scattered 

 punctures arranged in a tiiangular basal area and an oblong 

 area on each side near apex of frena ; exocorium with a row 

 of punctures reaching from the base to beyond the middle, 

 then irregularly sparsely punctate, mesocoriiim with an 

 oblong punctured aiea behind the middle near the radial vein,
