The clypeus reddish, truncate in front with the angles rounded, 
the margin being reflexed ; the scales elongate and not very closely 
packed. Eyes very prominent. Antennae reddish, the three terminal 
joints pubescent, forming an elongate club equal in length to the seven 
preceding joints taken together {^). Labrum with the lesser lobe 
not so evenly rounded as in the other species of the genvis. Palpi 
pitchy-red; the 1st and 3rd joints of the maxillary palpi elongate, about 
equal in length to each other, the 2nd joint much less elongate ; the 
apical joint of the labial palpi scarcely longer than the antepenultimate. 
Thorax transverse, covered, except the anterior half of the lateral 
margin, with large, nearly round, glossy- white scales, which, with those 
on the elytra, in some lights reflect a faint rose-colour. Sides of the 
thorax contracted anteriorly ; posterior margin much produced at the 
scutellum. Elytra elongate, with the sides parallel, covered with scales 
similar to those on the thorax, the scales being less dense just before 
the deflexed margin. Suture of the elytra raised, except near the 
scutellum ; each elytron with two distinct longitudinal costse, and a 
third which is almost obliterated. Sternum covered with long 
pubescence, the spur of the mesosternum very short, acute. Abdomen 
sparingly covered with very small scales ; pygidium broad, rounded at 
the apex, scarcely arched, moderately covered with small scales.
