twice as long as 1, 3-7 obconic, subequal in length, becoming stouter outwards, the club stout and 
acuminate. Prothorax small, transverse, rounded at the sides, obliquely narrowing anteriorly, broader 
than the head with the eyes, rugulosely punctate. Scutellum small, triangular. Elytra broad, 
moderately long, widening to the middle in @; rather coarsely punctate-striate, the punctures somewhat 
transverse, the interstices feebly convex. Anterior tibie, and the intermediate tibia also in d, 
unguiculate, the anterior pair without denticles. Third tarsal joint large. 
Length 62-74, breadth 23-23 millim. (od 2.)

One pair. ‘This species has rather short, broad, fusco-fasciate elytra, a small 
prothorax, stout antennal club, &c. 
MIMOGRAPHOPSIS, gen. nov. 
Rostrum oblong-subquadrate, sulcate, flattened, emarginate at the apex, with a small, triangular or v-shaped, 
bare nasal plate followed by a broad, arcuate, concave area, the scrobes deep, lateral, sinuous, extending 
as far downwards as the lower limit of the eyes, the latter large, convex, strictly lateral; antennse 
moderately slender, the scape clavate at the tip and reaching as far as or beyond the posterior margin 
of the eyes, the joints of the funiculus obconic, 2 elongate, the club oblong, acuminate ; mentum 
covering the maxille ; mandibles with a conspicuous prominence bearing the deciduous piece; prothorax 
transverse ; scutellum minute or small, triangular; elytra 10-striate, much wider than the prothorax, 
sinuate at the base, the humeri prominent, the outer stria becoming confluent towards the middle ; legs 
rather slender; femora clavate, unarmed ; anterior tibie denticulate and unguiculate, bowed at the 
apex; posterior tibie feebly or narrowly laminate at the apex, the glabrous articular surface ascending 
and densely ciliate externally ; body oblong, rather slender, more or less squamose, winged. 
Type, M. viridicans. 
The two species referred to this genus are intermediate, as it were, between 
Steirarrhinus and the insects here placed under Cyphus, differing from the former in 
the confluent outer strie of the elytra and the more prominent humeri, and from 
the latter in their relatively narrower head and prothorax and more slender build. 
The laterally placed, convex eyes, shorter rostrum, smaller scutellum, &c., distinguish 
Mimographopsis from Exophthalmus and its allies. M. viridicans is remarkable in 
having the elytra nodose in the female. There are no visible impressed lines at the 
base of the fifth ventral segment in this sex in either of the two species. The 
scales are rounded, rather large, and imbricate in J. viridicans, and clustered into 
smail spots in J/. pustulatus. 
1. Mimographopsis viridicans, sp.n. (Tab. X. figg. 1, la, ¢; 2, 2a, 9.) 
Oblong, narrow (3), broader (2), black; densely clothed (the legs included) with rather large, rounded, 
imbricate, greenish, greenish-white, or cinereous scales, those around the eyes white, and also set with 
extremely short, minute, scattered hairs, the whitish scales on the prothorax sometimes condensed into 
two faint vitte on the disc, the widely separated seriate punctures on the elytra bare; the antenne (the 
club excepted) finely pubescent and also with long bristly hairs, the club blackish-brown. Head and 
rostrum finely punctate, narrowly sulcate to the u-shaped raised subapical plate, the scales on the latter 
small; antennal scape not extending beyond the eyes, joint 2 of the funiculus nearly twice as long as L. 
Prothorax much broader than long, slightly nurrowed and constricted in front, transversely wrinkled 
towards the base, rugulosely punctate, the dise sometimes depressed or feebly sulcate down the middle. 
Scutellum minute or scarcely visible. Elytra flattened on the dise anteriorly, with rows of widely
