Head very thickly and rather strongly punctured, with the 

 slight swelling: at the insertion of the antennae smooth, and 

 with two smooth spots between the antennae ; there is a 

 slightly elevated line in the middle which extends nearly to

 (except the basal lobe), the posterior angles rather abruptly 

 diverging so as to embrace the elytra, acute, and with the 

 extreme apex directed backwards. The one side of the basal 

 lobe makes with the other side an an^le a little less than a

 with a small round (not very conspicuous) tumour near the
