Dor- sal view, X 16 diam- eters The prothorax is closely and deeply punctured, punctures irregular in size and shape, with a tend- ency to rugosity, vestiture of hairs short, fine, ob- scure. Median line absent, or present and more or less interrupted and obscure, usually vestigial, scarcely elevated if at all when pres- ent, marked by dividing line between prothoracic hairs even when not otherwise evident. Elytra clothed with three types of vestiture, punctures of stria? large, deeply indented, and tending to rectangu- lar, each with a very fine, appressed, obscure, pale hair; interspaces more finely and obscurely punctured, punctures well separated, each accompanied by a single, coarse, brown, backward-directed scalelike hair. The inter- spaces are roughened between and around punctures, becoming shagreened or granu- late posteriorly and laterally, and sparsely clothed with shorter golden-brown appressed scalelike bristles. Interspaces and stria' almost straight. Vcntrally, the anterior cox as are widely separated and clothed with long golden hairs, the second visible ventral abdominal segment, or sternite 4 of Hopkins, about as long as the fifth, or sternite 7 of Hopkins, and nearly double the third, or sternite 5 of Hopkins. Venter and legs shal- lowly and evenly punctured and clothed with hair. The tibiae are toothed and di- lated, the anterior pair with exterior angle o\ anterior margin nearly rectangular, with four short, blunt, recurved teeth close together on anterior margin and a stronger lateral tooth usually posterior to others on outer margin; the median pair have three strong teeth along anterior half of outer margin; the posterior pair have two well-separated strong teeth along outer margin. The third joint of the tarsus is deeply bllobed. 97826—26f 2. Fig. 7. -Adult of clover root borer, X 30 diameters. Please note that these images are
