It may probably be generically distinct from Cicindela, but to decide 
this a knowledge of the g is necessary. The tarsi are all ungrooved, 
and the palpi moderately short and simple.

A larger and more robust insect than %. cribrata, from which it 
differs in colour. The white spots would appear less dissimilar if the 
short streak on the dise were connected by a transverse line with the 
short lateral vitta, and it doubtless would be so in some examples; the 
apical spot shows traces of prolongation into a lunule.
