rather broadly explanate; lateral margin feebly sinuate when 
viewed from the side; hind angles rectangular, with a sharply 
defined, strongly angulate carina, the carina reaching lateral 
margin near apical third; disk strongly convex anteriorly, with 
a broad, rather deep, oblique, lateral depression extending along 
the base, the depression slightly deeper in front of scutellum; 
surface comparatively smooth, with a few indistinct strigse and 
sparsely clothed with inconspicuous recumbent hairs. Scutellum 
transversely carinate. Elytra gradually narrowed to middle, 
with a feeble postmedian dilatation, then obliquely narrowed to 
apices, which are separately, obtusely rounded and finely ser- 
rulate, sides of abdomen nearly concealed from above; disk con- 
vex, with distinct costae; sutural edge feebly elevated near apex, 
with a sharply elevated carina extending from humeri to middle, 
basal depressions almost obliterated; surface opaque, finely and 
densely, imbricately granulate, sparsely clothed with rather long 
. recumbent pubescence. Body beneath piceous ; prosternum 
densely scabrous, not pubescent ; prosternal lobe broadly 
rounded in front; intercoxal process narrow, sides parallel to 
behind coxae, then obtusely rounded; propleura finely reticulate; 
metastemum finely strigose. Abdomen sparsely punctate-stri- 
gose ; first ventral segment convex, not impressed or pubescent ; 
last segment obtusely rounded at apex; pygidium without pro- 
jecting carina. Hind tarsi about one-half as long as the tibiae, 
the first joint equal in length to the four following joints united; 
tibiae simple ; claws of anterior tarsi cleft at apex ; (middle claws 
broken off) ; posterior claws cleft near base forming a short, 
acute tooth.

Male . — Form elongate, rather slender, color olivaceous bronze, 
head dull green, each elytron with a transverse dark band at 
apical third. 
Antennae brassy, reaching to basal third of pronotum, serrate 
from the fourth joint. Head with the front slightly convex, 
the sides nearly parallel, slightly arcuate at middle of front; 
vertex very slightly, longitudinally impressed; surface sparsely 
and rather finely punctate, becoming slightly rugose on the oc- 
ciput, intervals dull, finely and very densely granulate, sparsely 
clothed with long white hairs along the eyes and in front of
