the posterior fascia is ivory yellow, much angulated and smooth, 

 but the fourth and fifth striae just cross its inner end where 

 it joins in a hook-like way with the discal yellow plagia. There 

 is no apical spot, in the three examples collected by L. Fea, 

 but the apex has a slight grey pubescence.

Elongate and rather parallel, the head thorax and body be- 

 neath are of an obscure dark pitchy colour, the labrum and 

 antennae, palpi and legs are pale rusty red. The head and 

 thorax are thickly punctured, longitudinally rugose and thickly 

 clothed with upright yellow hairs, the latter longer than wide, 

 anterior constriction faint, elytra punctate- striate, sometimes 

 sub-crenate, pale dirty-yellow, with a fascia (sometimes only 

 partly indicated by a spot) one third from the base, and a wide 

 one about one third from the apex. In my Assam insect these 

 fasciae are only faintly marked, and are both more diffused.
