" Vertex black , impunctate, lower face fulvous, a ray of 

 the same colour extending upwards on the vertex ; front deeply 

 excavated between the eyes, irregularly punctured ; anterior 

 margin of clypeus concave-emarginate. Thorax rather more 

 than twice as broad as long ; sides rounded, converging from 

 behind the middle to the apex ; the anterior angles obtuse, the 

 hinder ones rounded ; disc transversely convex, shining, impunc- 

 tate, excavated on either side near the lateral margin. Scutellum 

 trigonate, piceous. Klytra scarcely broader than the thorax, 

 parallel, very finely punctured ; the black markings on their sur- 

 face extend from the base nearly to the middle of the disc, and 

 again from the middle itself nearlj^ to the apex, leaving only an 

 irregular fiavous transverse band across the middle^ which sends 

 a narrow ramus along the suture nearly to the base. ' '
