It is impossible to allow this curious species to remain in 

 Euphanistes, witli which it has only an external resemblance. 

 The eyes are rather coarsely granulated ; the clypeus emarginate ; 

 thorax hardly transverse, sides slightly rounded, with a basal line 

 of deep punctures; elytra smooth, not margined at the base; 

 metasternum with no coxal line, prosternum not keeled.
