Head very little wider than the thorax , mouth testaceous , 

 maxillary palpi of the same colour but brown externally, an- 

 tennae dark fuscous, rather thickly punctured and with faint 

 rugae on the crowp, in one specimen the punctures are much 

 closer than in others, in which the head is more smooth. Thorax 

 elongate, twice as long as wide, not constricted in front, but 

 much narrowed behind, the lateral fossae (on the widened me- 

 dian lobes) are very obsolete, but visible, the base is flattened 

 a little, obsoletely and often indistinctly fossulate in the centre 

 and laterally compressed, the punctuation is coarse and often 

 confluent, especially in the middle of the disk, and towards the 

 base. The elytra are very long and narrow, scarcely wider than 

 the thorax, very thickly and deeply punctured, the punctures 

 are distinct at the base, but become confused and granular near 

 the apex. They are indistinctly costate. A few white ' flecks, ' 

 one such on the extreme base, two in a line near the middle; 

 and two obliquely placed in a fascia, about two thirds from the 

 base, of which the external one is the larger (and is present 

 even in worn examples) are visible, but are often more or less 

 effaced. The extreme apex is tipped with white hairs, it is 

 truncate, but this is only to be observed when the white hairs 

 are worn. The underside and legs are blackish, the legs long , 

 and the hind tibiae near the apex armed with a small angular 

 tooth , which is hairy at it apex , and the tip of the tibiae on 

 the inner sides clothed with silky hairs.
