350 MEMOIRS ON THE COLEOPTERA 



moderate, the posterior very long, thicker in the male. [Type C. 



luscus Fabr.] Neoclytus 



Pronotum even as a rule, the sculpture fine, dense and evenly disposed 



throughout 1 



10 Head and prothorax well developed, the latter generally but little 

 narrower than the elytra; front gradually sloping, the inter-antennal 

 space not or but very slightly prominent; anterior coxae subcontig- 

 uous or very narrowly separated; mesosternum moderately broad, 

 gently sloping; met-episterna sometimes a little narrower; prothorax 

 evenly rounded at the sides, not or scarcely at all constricted at 



base; eyes subcircular, rounded behind 1 1 



Head and prothorax relatively less developed, the latter much narrower 

 than the elytra; front abruptly vertical from the more prominent 

 inter-antennal ridge, short; anterior coxae subcontiguous; mesoster- 

 num not gently sloping but almost vertical; eyes more transverse, 

 having the usual emargination but broadly subtruncate at base. . 13 

 II Outline and general characters nearly as in Neoclytus, the elytra 

 generally somewhat tapering but less modified at tip and not spinose 

 as a rule, the legs similarly rather long, the hind femora extending 

 greatly beyond the elytra, especially in the male, but with the middle 

 femora more strongly claviform, the met-episterna not very evi- 

 dently narrower, similarly parallel; elytral ornamentation generally 

 in fewer irregular fasciae. [TypeLeptura verbasci Linn.]. . Clytanthus 

 Outline more parallel and cylindriform, the legs relatively less developed, 

 more slender and differing less sexually, the elytra ornamented some- 

 what as in Clytanthus and Xylotrechus; front and genae short 12 



12 Prothorax longer than wide, equal at base and apex, the surface 

 feebly bitumorose near the base, which is very briefly subtubulate; 

 scutellum smaller than usual, scarcely wider than long; elytra par- 

 allel, rounded and feebly subtruncate at the apices; antennae long, 

 very slender, filiform ; met-episterna exceptionally narrow ; body small, 

 slender, the upper surface less convex than usual. [Type Clytus 



albofasciatus Lap-Gory] Clytoleptus 



Prothorax wider than long, equal at base and apex, not at all constricted 

 at base and not bitumorose; scutellum larger and broader; elytra 

 but slightly modified at apex, generally very nearly parallel; antennae 

 short, incrassulate and compact distally; met-episterna of the usual 

 relative width; body larger, stouter, more convex above. [Type 



assumed C. marginicollis Lap-Gory] Clytus 



13 Prothorax, antennae, met-episterna and scutellum nearly as in Clytus, 

 the first more constricted and subtubulate at base, the legs not dif- 

 fering much sexually, only moderate in length, the posterior not 

 unusually developed; elytra ornamented with four or five narrow 



fasciae. [Type C. nimbata n. sp.] *Clytopsis 



14 Body somewhat as in Clytopsis but narrower and more convex, 

 the eyes similarly rather transverse and broadly subtruncate at base, 

 having an unusually large emargination; front very short, vertical; 

 antennae moderately long, somewhat tapering, flattened and very 

 free-jointed distally; prothorax nearly as in Ochrccthes, constricted 

 and tubulate at base, coarsely sculptured; scutellum moderate;
