parte apicali minoribus, spatiis subtiliter punctatis, extrinsecus

Similar to D. nigrifrons, but Smaller and narrower; elytra pro- 
portionately longer in basal half, entirely ferruginous; rostrum, 
tibie, and apex of femora, especially the posterior, blackish; 
antenne and apical half of elytra black, the latter strongly sub- 
striate in basal half, gradually more finely punctate in apical 
half, the intervals distinctly punctate, chiefly on outer edge sub- 
carinate, sloping, the suture with a fine carinula which is confluent 
behind scutellum; propygidium rather densely punctate, pygi- 
dium more remotely so; underside ferruginous, abdomen blackish, 
sides of first and penultimate sternites (the last nearly entirely), 
propygidium, and pygidium dark reddish brown; first joint of 
posterior tarsi longer than the two following together.

Scaphostethus cylindricollis sp. nov. Plate 2, fig. 7. 
Scaphostethus tuberculicolli Faust *° similis, badio tomentosus, 
tuberculis concolore setosis; prothorace lateribus perfecte cylin- 
dricis, ante apicem subconstrictis, disco ante medium utrinque 
tuberculo rotundato majore; scutello oblongo, postrorsum dila- 
tato, albido setoso-squamoso; elytris prothorace fere duplo latio- 
ribus, latitudine sesqui longioribus, remote seriato-punctatis 
(solum ad locos denudatos observandum), spatio secundo tuber- 
culis quinque majoribus, duobus approximatis, subbasalibus, uno 
* Hor. Soc. Ent. Ross, 24 (1890) 469. The species is described as 4 
Niphades, but belongs to Scaphostethus Roel.
