Distinct in its coloration from all other known species. The head and thorax and 
the underside of the body are blackish, closely covered with incumbent ash-coloured 
pubescence. The antennz are glabrous and shining, black, with the scape and base of 
several succeeding joints red, their under surface furnished with the usual stiff bristles. 
The thorax is nearly globular, but strongly constricted at the base. The elytra are 
elongate-trigonal, with the usual depressed suture, bounded bya longitudinal carina on 
each side, the apex being simply angular and not spinose; the apical third of the 
surface, suture, and lateral margins are blackish, the rest of the surface reddish tawny, 
the dusky suture widening near the scutellum, and a small pale ashy spot lying near 
the suture on each side a little before the apex. The legs, with the exception of the 
tarsi, are bright red. The mesosternum is very convex, but not vertical in front as in 
Trichorys. 'The antenne (¢) are of equal thickness to the apex, and about two thirds 
the length of the body. The hind femora are short and gradually thickened. 
13. Ochresthes palmeri. 
Parvus, modice elongatus, postice vix angustatus, niger, antennis pedibusque tenuiter cinereo-pubescentibus, 
corpore supra breviter flavo-olivaceo pubescente, subtus grisescente; thorace lateribus squaliter modice 
rotundatis ; elytris absque carinis, apice singulatim rotundatis; antennis filiformibus apicem versus haud 
incrassatis. |
