One specimen, collected at Steilacoom, by Mr. George Gibbs, to whom I dedicate it with much 
pleasure. The second spot of the elytra is situated about one-third from the apex, and extends 
from the margin nearly to the suture; the posterior one is near the apex, it also extends nearly 
to the suture, but is dilated along the margin.
