Pubescence fine, white, sparse on dorsal surface,coarser and denser on sides of prothorax, mesothorax, and beak shorter than head and prothorax, one-third longer thanprothorax, slightly, evenly curved; in lateral view attenuate fromantennal insertion to apex; in dorsal view expanded laterally atantennal insertion, strongly attenuate to apical third, tip slightlyexpanded, somewhat compressed in apical third; punctured andsparsely pubescent to near apex, tip smoother, bare, a line of con-fluent punctures above antennal insertion appears as a sulcus, extends SUBGENUS TRICHAPION—KISSINGER 287.
