 nounced rows of punctures. Each elytron with a large scale 

 patch at base, reaching from first row to lateral margin. In 

 the middle a broad crossband and in apical fourth a large trian-

 shallow. The depression with an oblong pale green scale spot. 

 Another spot at each side of head. Prothorax slightly broader 

 than long, with an indistinct anterior submarginal groove and 

 a strongly pronounced posterior submarginal groove. Female 

 with a pair of subparallel transverse bands across disk, from 

 one lateral margin to the other. Elytra of female one-half 

 longer than broad, apically terminating in a prolonged thorn, 

 which is slightly bent downward. Elytra punctate-striate. Fe- 

 male with two pairs of subparallel bands across disk from one 

 lateral margin to the other, and at apical third another band 

 forming a triangle. The basal pair of bands interrupted at 

 suture, but confluent along lateral margin. The anterior and 

 posterior bands of second pair curved backward at and near 

 lateral margin ; they recurve so as to form the triangular figure
