Anterior outline of clypeus broadly sub-truncated. Eyes flat, their anterior outline continuous with that of head; interocular distance equalling half of pronotal width at posterior angles. Clypeus with two obliquely oriented and deeply impressed wide depressions, their central region with dense punctation; diameter of these punctures similar to that of frons punctures.

Punctures behind anterior margin of clypeus small and moderately dense; between clypeal depressions and on frons larger but irregular in size, their diameter equalling 1 to 2 meshes of microreticulation, with a few larger punctures reaching 3 meshes in diameter; punctures on frons rather regularly spaced with mean distance between two punctures about 2–3 meshes; vertex with small and sparse punctures; posterior margin of head with smooth surface between dense and small punctures; beside inner eye margin with impressed puncture lines and meshes of microreticulation smaller. Setae on head small and restricted to clypeal depressions and impressed puncture lines along inner eye margin.

dark brown with anterior margin, posterior margin and sides ferrugineous. Lateral bead of pronotum rufo-testaceous. Pronotum width at posterior angles distinctly exceeding body width at shoulders. Posterior angles slightly obtuse. Sides of pronotum in posterior half almost parallel; in anterior half, pronotum sides regularly curved and weakly convergent. Pronotal bead thick, distinct from anterior to posterior angle, in lateral view equalling diameter of antennomeres 5–9 at their base. Surface uniformly microreticulated; meshes contiguous, polygonal and of same size as on head, anteriorly a bit smaller; before anterior line of large punctures, meshes with a transverse orientation. Near anterior margin, punctures very small and sparse (like on vertex); behind with a line of very coarse large punctures (their diameter about 2 to 3 meshes), distance between these punctures irregular, from less than one diameter to more than two diameters of a puncture. Laterally before posterior margin with a dense group of coarse and large punctures in a hardly perceptible linear-oblique depression; median half of pronotum without distinct puncture line before posterior margin. On disk with rather fine, moderately dense and regular punctation; in central disk region puncture diameter equalling 1 to 2 meshes of microreticulation and mean distance between punctures about 3–4 meshes; laterally, punctures slightly larger and coarser, but punctation not decisively denser than medially; in posterior third with punctures on average much larger, some reaching 3–4 meshes in diameter. Punctures apparently all bearing a distinct transparent seta; pronotum sides with longer setae.

. Head reddish, genae blackish, gula rufo-testaceous. Palps entirely testaceous; last article of maxillary palps very long. Ventral surface of prothorax and elytral epipleura ferrugineous; posterior narrowed extremity of elytral epipleura darker. Rest of ventral surface black, except dark ferrugineous metaventral wings, antero-lateral part of metacoxal plates, posterior part of metacoxal processes, first and last abdominal ventrites, posterior and lateral parts of other abdominal ventrites. Genae microreticulated without punctures, gula smooth with small coarse punctures. Prosternal process ferrugineous, with blade lanceolate; lanceolate blade in cross section rather narrow, evenly convex (not roof-like and not carinate), medially smooth and laterally partly smooth and partly micro-granulose; margin distinctly beaded; apex bluntly pointed. Lanceolate blade with long golden setae on its margins. Between procoxae with an indistinct protuberance, and anteriorly with about 10 wellimpressed transverse ridges; surface between ridges smooth; ridge length decreasing anteriorly; first ridge placed slightly before procoxae; process not prolonged anteriorly as a narrow convexity onto prosternum. Antero-median region of prosternum ferrugineous (not distinctly darker than rest of prosternum), with many long golden setae; its surface rugose and finely granulose. Internal beading of elytral epipleura very thick; this beading not much thinner along metacoxal plate than along metepisternum. Posterior margin of metacoxal processes medially prolonged backwards, very slightly concavely sinuate along sides; midline of metacoxal processes deeply impressed over its entire length. Lateral lines of metacoxal processes distinct, elongate and weakly divergent, ending shortly behind posterior margin of metaventrite; inside metacoxal lines with strongly impressed grooves. Ventral surface smooth on metaventrite, internal half of metacoxal plates, between metacoxal lines, and in median region of abdominal ventrites 1 and 2. Elytral epipleura, metepisterna, lateral parts of metacoxal plates and of abdominal ventrites 1 and 2, and whole surface of abdominal ventrites 3–6 microreticulated; on elytral epipleura this reticulation weakly impressed, almost obsolete. On ventrite 6 microreticulation not distinctly more impressed than on ventrite 5. Sides of metaventrite with very large and coarse punctures; along internal margin of elytral epipleura, on whole surface of metacoxal plates and on sides of abdominal ventrites 1–2 with coarse punctures of medium size; on abdominal ventrites 3–6 punctation fine and sparse. Interlinear space of metacoxal processes with a few small punctures. Distinct and rather long setae present on metaventrite, on metacoxal plates, between lateral lines of metacoxal processes, on abdominal ventrites and elytral epipleura.

Both spots were also characterised by an abundance of fine organic particles and decaying vegetal material (partially decomposed leaves), completely covering the calcareous substratum. These two habitats otherwise differ significantly. The first population lives on the margin of a grassy wetland (

At Saintes-Maries de la Mer there is a famous spring located in the crypt of the church. The latter was built on the burial place of the Holy women St Mary Jacobe, St Mary Salome and St Sarah, who according to the tradition arrived there after having been arrested in Jerusalem and set off on a boat then abandoned on a raft, together with Mary-Magdalene, Lazarus and other disciples of Jesus, towards the middle of the 1st Century.

The southern extremity of this fault line is the place that the Romans chose to be the starting point of one of the main aqueducts of the region at that time, which alimented the city of Aix-en-Provence (the aqueduct of Traconnade, now almost entirely destroyed). The mountain of Vautubière itself is an anticlinal structure with Jurassic (Kimmeridgian and Tithonian) calcareous rocks in its centre, and on the south versant late Miocene molasse (west from the fault line) and early Cretaceous limestone and marl (east from the fault line) in abnormal contact.
