turcs becoming sjiarser posteriorly and disappearing near the 

 apex. Each elytron has six silvery-grey spots, of which two 

 are in the same transverse line at a short distance behind the 

 base, the third is just in front of the middle and is placed 

 transversely, with its inner extremity rather close to tlie 

 suture ; the fourth and fifth are smaller and more remote from 

 the suture, the fourth just behind the middle, the fifth about 

 midway between this and the apex; the sixth is at the apex, 

 and from its inner edge a narrow sutural vitta passes forwards 

 for about half the length of the elytron. The body under- 

 neath and legs arc greyish, with the anterior portion of each 

 of the metatlioracic episterna, an anterior band on each of 

 the first four abdominal segments, and the whole of the 

 fifth segment so faintly pubescent as to appear black and 

 subnitid.
