Agrilus inermis sp. nov. 
Form small, elongate, and slender, head and pronotum brassy 
green, elytra piceous, with a strong metallic luster, covered 
with short white hairs, except a broad transverse band at the 
middle. 
Antennz brassy green, reaching to the basal third of pronotum, 
serrate from the fourth joint. Head with the front slightly 
convex, sides slightly narrowed from vertex to clypeus; vertex 
and occiput broadly and rather deeply impressed; surface 
very finely and densely granulate, becoming less granulose and 
more coarsely punctate on occiput; in front of clypeus and along 
the eyes densely clothed with long pale yellow hairs. Clypeus 
nearly square, with the front margin nearly truncate. Pronotum 
quadrate, nearly as long as wide, base and apex equal in width; 
sides nearly straight; narrowly explanate; lateral margin feebly 
sinuate when viewed laterally; hind angles rectangular, with a 
sharply defined, abruptly angulate carina, the carina joining 
lateral margin just in front of middle; disk convex, with a vague 
median depression divided into two portions, and an indistinct 
depression at the sides; surface rather finely but coarsely and 
irregularly strigose, near the posterior angles more densely 
strigose-punctate, intervals sparsely and finely punctate, and 
very sparsely clothed with inconspicuous hairs. Scutellum not 
very wide, strongly, transversely carinate. Elytra slightly 
narrowed from the base, with a very feeble postmedian broad- 
ening, then more obliquely narrowed to the apices, which are 
subtruncate and without distinct serrulation, sides of abdomen 
exposed above; disk flattened, with an elongate concave space 
along suture at the middle, without distinct coste ; sutural margin 
elevated from about the apical third, with a sharply elevated 
carina extending from the humeri to the basal third, on a 
line with the prothoracic carina; basal depressions moderately 
deep and extending obliquely behind the scutellum to the 
suture; surface rather shining, finely granulate-punctate, sparse- 
ly clothed with distinct short whitish pubescence, except for a 
broad transverse denuded band at the middle. Body beneath 
Piceous, with a strong brassy tinge; prosternum sparsely 
punctate and feebly scabrous; prosternal lobe obtusely angulate 
in front, with a very minute tooth along margin on each side
