 Body length up to 85 mm. 



The head is slightly more in length than height. The eyes occupy 

 the dorsal and partly lateral surfaces, leaving free the relatively broad,

 the same as that of the head. The head in males is relatively lower and 

 the antennae adjacent and much longer than the head. In females the
