Pl. an, Figs. :26,528,.30;° Pls, Bis. 6: 
Of medium size. Head and prothorax precisely as in the preceding 
species, the rostrum very faintly granulate, distinctly shorter than the pro- 
thorax, moderately stout, barely arcuate and equal; eyes long oval, trans- 
verse; scape of antennz just reaching the anterior margin of the eye, half 
as long as the funicle and club together, the club fully as long as the pre- 
ceding three joints together. Elytra sharply punctato-striate, the puncta 
very slender and longitudinal, not very remote, the interspaces flat with the 
usual median row of bristles; these are removed from each other by about 
their own length, which is slightly less than the width of the interspaces.

Of medium size. Head and rostrum delicately and closely granulose, 
the rostrum as long or almost as long as the prothorax, slender, arcuate, 
and equal; eyes rather broad oval, transverse ; scape of antennze much more 
than half as long as funicle and club together, reaching the posterior mar- 
gin of the eye, the club hardly so long as the last three joints of the funicle, 
the funicle gradually enlarging so that the club is not so abrupt as in the 
preceding species. Prothorax densely and rather coarsely eranulose. Ely- 
tra as in G. repositus, but with rather coarser puncta.
