coarsely, imbricately granulate, becoming smoother near apex, 
sparsely clothed with short inconspicuous hairs and each elytron 
with a transverse band of white pubescence at the apical third 
and a similar band at tip. Body beneath dark aéneous; pro- 
s4ernum sparsely and coarsely rugose, finely granulate between 
the rug and sparsely pubescent; prosternal lobe broad, very 
broadly rounded and fully truncate in front; intercoxal process 
broad, sides parallel, with the edge strongly, abruptly elevated 
along the coxee, abruptly narrowed at tip; propleura punctate, 
feebly reticulate and sparsely pubescent; metasternum strongly, 
transversely strigose, with fine punctures along the edge of the 
strigee, sparsely pubescent. Abdomen sparsely and coarsely 
strigose at base, becoming more densely, finely strigose and 
punctate at the sides, sparsely pubescent; first ventral segment 
convex, not impressed nor conspicuously pubescent; last ventral 
broadly and feebly, transversely concave, the apex acutely, but 
not deeply emarginate at middle; vertical portions not conspic- 
uously pubescent; pygidium punctate and carinate at middle, 
the carina not projecting at apex. Hind tarsi very short, one- 
fourth as long as the tibiex, first joint slightly longer than the 
second; all of the tibiee nearly straight, without a distinct mucro; 
hind femora not as robust as in A. subpubescens; claws similar 
on all tarsi, strongly cleft, = lower portions incurved, but with 
the points distant. 
Length, 5 millimeters; width, Eds 
Described from three specimens, which are probably all males. 
The type is from Davao, Mindanao (Baker 8313). One para- 
type from the same locality and another from Zamboanga, Min- 
danao (Baker). 
This species is closely allied to A. subpubescens but can be 
easily distinguished from that species by the white pubescent 
band on the elytra, the broadly rounded prosternal lobe, and by 
having the sides of the intercoxal process abruptly elevated 
along the coxee. 
Agrilus subpubescens sp. nov. 
Form short, rather robust, color entirely greenish blue, some 
examples with a purplish tinge on the elytra. 
Antenne cupreous, with the basal joints more or less aéneous, 
reaching to basal third of pronotum, serrate from the fourth 
joint. Head with the front nearly flat, widest at clypeus, then 
gradually narrowed posteriorly; vertex and occiput slightly im- 
pressed ; surface strongly rugose, the ruge becoming less distinct
