The clypeus is rather strongly emarginate (in an upvrard 
direction) in front, giving it the appearance somewhat of its 
contour being disturbed by the labrum, but on close inspection the 
labrum is seen to be altogether below it and its margin to be 
continuous and even ; its surface continues the plane of the rest 
of the head, the clypeal suture being straight and rather distinctly 
impressed; its puncturation is slightly finer and closer than that of 
the rest of the head. The prothorax is two-thirds again as wide as 
its length down the middle and its base is about a third again as 
wide as its front margin, which is gently emarginate with angles 
very little produced ; the sides are slightly but somewhat evenly 
rounded, the basal angles rounded off, the base nearly straight. 
The transverse wrinkling of the elytra is fine but distinct; these 
have no trace of strise except a faint indication of that next the 
suture, and their lateral fringe is not continued to the apex. On 
the underside the metasternum and hind coxae are evenly and 
strongly punctured, the hind body more sparingly and feebly (espe- 
cially in the middle), where the hairs of the ventral series become 
very sparse and short. The hind coxae are decidedly shorter than 
the metastemum, the hind femora not much wider than the inter- 
mediate, their inner apical angle being rounded and very little 
prominent.
