 less contracted in front and its sides nearly straight ; it is 

 also differently coloured, having a narrow line on each side 

 and a vitta on the front margin testaceous ; the elytra are 

 deeply punctate-striate, with a humeral vitta, and a fascia 

 commencing widely on the margin, but terminating in a 

 point about the centre of the elytra ; the breast is yellow.

Ohs. — This may be the female oi funesta, but I am not 

 able to assert their sex. I have only seen three specimens.
