bare, except the hind tibiae and tarsi which are more strongly pubes- 

 cent than usual. Head rugosopunctate above the ocelli; front 

 excavated gently above the antennae, the basin finely longi- 

 tudinally striate, space between it and the eyes more coarsely 

 striate; between the antennae is a strong carina that extends up- 

 ward and disappears before the ocelli; beneath the antennae is a 

 transverse carina that curves upward outside them and extends 

 halfway to the ocelli; face with deep striae that converge below; 

 cheeks with striae that curve toward the base of the mandibles; head 

 behind the eyes with scattered punctures of variable sizes, impunc- 

 tate near the posterior edge and on the occiput except close to the 

 ocelli. Cheeks half as long as the eyes, the inner edges of which 

 are divergent below; ocelli close together in a low triangle, the

posterior ones larger than the anterior one, as far from one another 

 as from the eye margin. Antennae slender; third and fourth 

 joints equal, each as long as the first two together and fully six 

 times as long as thick. Mesonotum with distinct parapsidal fur- 

 rows and with two other deep-grooved lines on each side external 

 to the furrows; of these the inner one meets the furrow near its 

 anterior end and the outer one meets the edge of the mesonotum 

 just in front of the tegula; both attain the posterior margin of the 

 mesonotum; surface of mesonotum irregularly punctate with 

 coarse and fine punctures intermixed; smooth medially behind. 

 Scutellum with large, well-separated punctures, smooth medially 

 behind. Propodeum elongate, longer than the distance from its 

 base to the anterior edge of the prothorax; not excavated behind, 

 its posterior surface very gradually sloping, rounded off to the
