punctured ; the enclosed area at the base of the median segment smooth

$ . Clypeus with the lamina free, springing from below the middle and 

 truncate at the apex. Antennae inserted about one-quarter further from 

 the anterior ocellus than from the base of the clypeus, the second joint of 

 the flagellum nearly half as long again as the first. Eyes distinctly 

 diverging towards the clypeus, the posterior ocelli quite half as far again 

 ' from the eyes as from each other. Mesopleurse without tubercles ; first 

 abdominal segment longer than broad, second ventral segment without a 

 raised area at the base ; pygidial area rugose, truncate at the apex, twice 

 as long as broad, the sides almost parallel. Finely and shallowly punctur- 

 ed, more coarsely on the vertex ; the enclosed space at the base of the 

 median segment very finely and closely punctured, without a distinct 

 median groove. First recurrent nervure received just before the middle- of 

 the second cubital cell.
