fascia on the vertex, reaching from the anterior to the posterior margins, 

 produced on each side in front, enclosing the ocelli ; a curved fascia a 

 little before the inner margin of the eyes, and a subtriangular spot on 

 the apex of the lateral margin : pronotum with the anterior margin 

 (narrow) , a central longitudinal fascia, bordered with black on each side, 

 and a triangular fascia on each lateral margin, pale ochraceous ; two 

 narrow oblique fasciaa on each side, a narrow longitudinal fascia on each 

 side of the disc, inner posterior, and inner and outer lateral margins, 

 black : mesonotum with a clavate central longitudinal fascia, bounded 

 on each side by a shorter, broader, and much angulated one, followed by 

 an elongated spot and by a sublateral broad fascia, broken near the 

 anterior margin, two rounded spots near the base, and two smaller ones 

 on the anterior branches of the cruciform elevation at the base : abdo- 

 men pale castaneous, disc piceous, gradually widening from the base to 

 the apex, where it is wholly black. Underside of the body ochraceous 

 and unspotted ; a black spot on the inner margin of the eyes, anterior tibiaa 

 and tarsi, apices of intermediate tibiae and tarsi, and apex of the rostrum, 

 piceous. Opercula pale greenish : tegmina and wings pale hyaline, trans- 

 verse veins at the bases of the second and third apical areas, infuscated. 

 Face broadly sulcated in the centre, and transversely striated (many of the 

 strise black) ; rostrum passing the posterior coxse, and reaching the inner 

 angles of the opercula. Opercula reaching the second abdominal segment, 

 the outer margins subparallel with the lateral abdominal margins, hipped 

 and widest (but not meeting) near the bases of the femora, from thence 

 diverging and gradually narrowing to the apex, which is obtusely anga- 

 lated : anterior femora with two long and prominent teeth, and a shorter 

 one near the apex. Posterior tibiaa with three inner and two outer long 

 marginal spines (Distant) .
