Male. — Tawny, slender, testaceous beneath. Head short; tip of the yertex 

 depressed, nearly round ; front punctured, slightly oblique, with four well-defined 

 diverging keels ; inner keels ending in the flat ridge which extends from the tip of 

 the vertex. Antennae slender, a little longer than the head and the prothorax to- 

 gether. Prothorax with a very slight keel, which is most apparent near the hind 

 border ; four transverse impressed lines, the first, as usual, widely interrupted in the 

 middle; fore border hardly curved; hind border slightly elongated and angular. 

 Prosternal spine thick, oblique, rounded at the tip, approaching the mesostemum. 

 Abdomen testaceous, with a piceous stripe which extends from the base to beyond 

 half the length. Pore-wings cinereous towards the tips, with numerous blackish 

 points, which mostly form very irregular bands ; a row of subcostal black more 

 determinate points. Hind- wings cinereous ; veins black. 



Length of the body 15 lines ; expansion of the fore-wings 30 lines. 



Tlie prosternal spine is shorter, stouter, and more obtuse than that of Q. rubi- 

 ginosa, which this species closely resembles. The speckled fore-wings distinguish it 

 from C. spissa.
