the front near the base. The head is furnished with another horn that
inclines backwards towards the other, and at the extremity is curled and
pointed, having a square knob placed on each side near the curl. Elytra

Drury states that this insect was brought from Sierra Leone, and that it
lives in the mangrove trees; many specimens having been taken from thence.
