 transversis ; clava ovata, acuminata. Prothoraoc oblongo-sub-

Most of these characters are diagnostic, and differentiate 

 the genus from Bhadinosomus, to which it has, however, a 

 most unmistakable resemblance. The eyes are round as in 

 Rhodinosomus (not oval) ; and, owing to the rostrum not being 

 dilated at the tip, the scrobes are not apparent above.
