General description:
"I cannot keep the name that Mr. Chevrolat gave to this species because of its coarseness, and I also saw no possibility in correcting it by making a small change. I have therefore chosen the name and placed the beetle in Sturm’s catalog, even though this name [that I have chosen] would make sense only if one does not consider the hind spot." [Translated from Suffrian, 1858].
