Long. 4 lin. S • 
Of cylindrical form, the bead and tborax narrower tban 
the elytra. Tbe bead is opaque, yellowish ; tbe antennae, 
a little longer tban tbe body, are filiform, not at all ser- 
rate, pubescent, grooved and carinate to tbe tenth 
joint, the four basal joints chesnut-red, tbe rest testa- 
ceous yellow, with tbe tips of the joints brown. Tbe 
thorax forms a somewhat regular oval, and is not much 
constricted behind, with the groove not strictly marked ; 
the surface is densely and confluently punctate, testaceous 
yellow or tawny, with a broad vitta on each side of the 
disc purplish-brown, not touching either front or hind 
margin. The elytra are rounded, and much narrowed 
close to the tips, the latter simply notched ; the surface 
is covered with large deep circular punctures ; the longi- 
tudinal elevated line of the disc becomes wavy near the 
middle, and then disappears; the colour is testaceous, 
with a large triangular humeral spot, and a spot occupy- 
ing the whole apical half, violet-brown, this spot being 
advanced and rounded on the suture. Beneath, entirely 
testaceous-yellow, shining; the legs the same, with the 
tips of the thighs and base of the tibiae brown.
