This little species resembles B. fraierna in the stiffish erect 

 bristles with which it is clothed, and also resembles U. Meyricki 

 (vide infra) in general appearance and its antennal structure, but 

 differs widely from both inter alia in the shape of its prothorax, 

 and from the latter in its much coarser sculpture.

 The whitish grey pubescence on the elytra is here and there 

 condensed into a somewhat conspicuous patch or tuft, but it is 

 possible that this may be due to the rest of the surface being a 

 little abraded in my unique example. The antennae shorter than 

 usual in the genus, and having the apical joints a little incrassated 

 furnish a very noticeable character.
