Pronotum, length mm, width at base mm, basal angles well for- ward of posterior margin on median line; lateral margins straight, earinate; anterior margin ele- vated into a narrow collar, margin set off by transverse line just behind; disk coarsely punc- tate, reddish yellow, blackish about the calli; calli outlined by inner and basal margins of polished black, slightly impressed, forming a wide marginal line which is acutely angled at inner basal margin of each callus; outer margin of each callus with a glabrous line, but some- what hidden by overlapping silvery, sericeous pubescence. This form of collar and calli rather distinctive for the genus. Scutellum moderately convex, transversely striate, irregularly punctate, yellowish, basal half black. Hemelytra with yel- lowish hypodermal color, clavus blackish, outer half of corium with fuscous, cuneus reddish yel- low; membrane pale fuscous, veins dark fus- cous. Dorsal surface clothed with short, recumbent, pale pubescence, and intermixed around the calli and on the head with some silvery, seri- ceous pubescence. Ventral surface reddish yel- low, sternum black, venter more reddish; clasp- ers distinctive. Legs black, shining, femora with- out visible spots. Female. Length mm, width mm. Head: width mm, vertex .59 mm; black, yellowish about front margins of eyes. Antennae: segment I, length .27 mm, thickness .13 mm, black; II, mm, gradually thicker on apical half, thickness .15 mm, black; III, .27 mm, black; IV, .34 mm, black, slightly more slender than III. Pronotum, length mm, width at base mm. Slightly more robust than the male but very similar in color and pubescence. Second antennal segment tapering from base to thicker on apical half, somewhat thicker than in the male. Holotype: d" June 23, 1965, Area 18M, Ne- va
