 rounding angulate; tylus distinct, slightly elevated, broad, length 

 equal to that of vertex behind it ; ocelli equidistant from tylus and 

 pronotum, also equidistant from eyes and each other; elytra, 

 length one-third greater than width, much wider than pronotum, 

 costal margin deeply deflexed to middle, broadly expanded and 

 narrowly reflexed throughout. 



Genitalia: Female py gofers broad and stout, length equal to 

 width, outer margins obliquely angled, distinctly grooved from 

 lateral margins of last ventral segment diagonally to apical third, 

 slightly exceeded by ovipositor. Male, last ventral segment 

 strongly convex ; plates equally as convex and as broad at base,
