fact that the second longitudinal vein ends in the first and not in the costal 

 vein. 



It differs from Eulonclms in the eyes being contiguous between the 

 antenna' and the vertex only, and not above and below the antennae. The 

 abdomen is very broad, and its upper side very convex ; it is broad and cut 

 squarely at the basis ; broad and blunt at the tip (not tapering, as in 

 Eulonchus). 



The cuts represent this species, Fig. 1, L. Klcttii magnified; (the hind 

 tarsi are broken off; the hair line indicate the natural size).
