Elongate, linear, parallel, depressed, rather shining, the head and thorax testaceo- 
rufous, the former becoming fuscous in front, the mandibles nigro-piceous, and the 
antennz rufo-piceous ; the scutellum, elytra, and abdomen nigro-piceous ; the scutellum 
and the margins of the segments of the abdomen with a rufescent tinge; the legs 
piceous. Head with the front part sloping towards the mouth, the slope depressed and 
deeply foveolated just behind the epistome, which has two projecting teeth (fig. 82) and 
is slightly biemarginate on each side; the sloping punctured portion is rounded on its 
sides, narrowest behind, and the posterior margin is truncate; the sides of the head are 
smooth, rather rounded, and impunctate, and the back smooth, with the exception of a 
slight oblique fovea on each side. "The mandibles have one very large tooth behind the 
point. The thorax is narrower behind than in front, widest a little before the middle, 
both base and apex truncate, the disk smooth in the middle and surrounded with faint 
punctures, slightly longitudinally corrugated at the base; anterior angles slightly decli- 
nate and obtuse, posterior angles distinctly obtuse. Scutellum slightly and irregularly 
punctate along the base. Elytra punctate-striate, the strive sloping from the base 
obliquely inwards and becoming effaced before reaching the apex; there are a few very 
long fine hairs projecting from the sides of the elytra. Abdomen above with the fourth 
segment dull, opaque, and impunctate, the remaining three smooth, impunctate, and 
shining in the middle; on each side next the fimbriz deeply and irregularly punctate. 
Thighs very thick and stout, and tarsi very long and slender.
