size of punctures); punctures relatively small (diameter of punctures equal to diameter of cells of microreticulation); head with a row of setigerous punctures along inner margin of each eye and a short row at frontal angle of each eye; a slightly longer puncture row forms fronto-clypeal depression at each head side; head with relatively strong microreticulation. Pronotum with sparse strioles in whole surface or with only few at posterior margin or posterior angles; with or without longitudinal wrinkles at posterior margin; pronotal punctation finer than on head; setigerous punctures form a broad row along pronotal margins, absent in posterior middle; disc of pronotum with thin, longitudinal median scratch. Pronotal microreticulation fine. Elytron usually with 11 dorsal striae; striae weakly to strongly impressed; odd striae shortly reduced apically; stria 1 or striae 1-3 shortly reduced basally; sometimes stronger stria reduction can take place: stria 1 reduced completely, elytron with only ten reduced and interrupted striae; submarginal stria present, well-developed, sometimes reaching
