Description

This beetle has brown elytra with short spines on the neds. The antennae are longer than the body and the male has short spines at the end of each segment. The thorax is mottled brown and black.[2]

gollark: I disagree entirely.
gollark: We have the worst of both worlds in many places, with nigh-identical rows of houses which are apparently still built slowly and inefficiently.
gollark: If it was made of multiple cuboids, you could even put them together in exciting ways.
gollark: It isn't like you couldn't paint a cuboid to look nice.
gollark: Do you actually spend enough time admiring your house that the substantially greater cost would be any use?
