Minus elongatus ; postice modice dilatatus, minus nitidus ; 
niger ; antennis palpisque testaceis ; tarsis pygidiique apice piceo- 
ferrugineis ; capite prothoraceque vix manifeste, elytris sjjarsius 
sat for titer, pygidio crebrius sat fortiter, punctulatis ; clypeo 
antice fortiter triangulariter emarginato ; antennis 9-articulatis ; 
unguiculis bifidis. [Long. 34, lat. 14 lines. 
The head and prothorax are less shining than the elytra, and 
their puncturation is very fine, faint and sparing, scarcely visible 
under a strong lens ; the refiexed margin of the clypeus is very 
wide at the sides but fine in the middle, the surface of the reflexed 
margin evidently punctulate ; the labrum (viewed from above) is 
strongly concave in front ; the surface of the clypeus is quite 
continuous with that of the rest of the head, and the clypeal 
suture is entirely obsolete. The prothorax is a little more than 
half again as wide as long, and its base a little more than a third 
again as wide as its front, which is gently bisinuate with strongly 
produced angles ; the sides are gently arched, the hind angles 
(viewed from above) well-defined and slightly directed hindward ; 
the base is widely and gently lobed in the middle. The pygidium 
has a keel down the middle which does not reach the apex. The 
elytra are scarcely visibly wrinkled transversely, but bear some 
obscure stria-like longitudinal wrinkles ; they are truncate at the 
apex and the lateral fringe is not continued round the apex
