 smooth, slightly arcuate ; apex of labrum with a slight 

 inward curve. Antennae short, thick, involute ; the third

 shorter than the head, narrowed and rounded towards the 

 base, in front broadly convex. Median segment with a 

 gradually rounded slope to the apex which is almost 

 transverse, transversely striolated ; the sides at the base 

 broadly depressed laterally and with abroad raised margin ; 

 the lateral tubercles elongate. Abdomen subpetiolate, a 

 little longer than the head and thorax united ; acute at the 

 apex, the apical segment with scattered punctures and

 beneath it is punctured, except at the base. Legs of 

 moderate length, stout, the tibiae and tarsi with golden 

 pubescence, the hind tibiae sparsely spinose ; the long spur 

 of the hind tibiae does not reach the middle of the metatarsus, 

 metatarsal brush incomplete ; the other joints spined. The 

 second recurrent nervure is curved, and is received about 

 the length of the second transverse cubital nervure from the 

 base of the cellule ; at the top the second cubital cellule is 

 much shorter than the third ; at the bottom they are sub- 

 equal. In the hind wings the anal nervure is received 

 beyond the apex of the cubital.
