520 REVISION OF THE GENUS PAROPSIS, 



fortitei' elongate subrostriformi, parte postica crebre sat 

 grosse (parte ante oculos subtilissime) punctulato; oculis 

 prominulis; antennis brevibus, articulis 7°-ll° sat abrupte' 

 dilatatis, 7°-10° quam latioribus baud (11° vix) longioribu.s; 

 prothorace quam longiori circiter triplo latiori, antice modice 

 bisinuato, sparsius subtiliter (ad latera crebrius fortiter) 

 punctulato, angulis anticis subacutis posticis fere rectis, 

 lateribus leviter arcuatis; elytris baud striatis, puncturis sat 

 magnis sat symmetrice (in seriebus 10 dispositis) impressis, 

 parte lateral! puncturis quam serierum puncturte baud 

 majoribus crebre sat sequaliter impressa. Long. 1|^, lat. 1 line. 



Although the difference between the almost entirely testaceous 

 and the darkest specimens of this insect is very great, yet there 

 are intermediate forms which connect the two by gradations that 

 allow no doubt of their specific identity. The species is quite 

 incapable of confusion with any other owing to its very remarkable 

 head, — coarsely punctulate behind the level of the front of the 

 eyes and strongly produced in front as a nearly impunctulate 

 almost rostriform clypeus.

Addendum. 



As this present memoir completes my Revision of Group vi., it 

 seems convenient here to enumerate and remark on the species 

 (attributable to the Group) that for various reasons I have been 

 unable to assign to any subgroup. First, however, it should be 

 noted that two species appearing in Mr. Masters' Catalogue as 

 Paropses (and referable to Group vi. if they belonged to the genus 

 at all) are almost certainly not membei's of the genus, — viz., P. 

 ( Paj'opsipacha) metallica, Motsch., and P. (Xotodea) splendens, 

 W. S. Macl. The former I take to be the insect since called 

 Cyclomela nitida by Dr. Baly, and the latter to be a Cydomela or 

 Aiigotnela (probably A. hypochaleca, Germ.). Excluding those 

 two there I'emain 10 names, not yet dealt with in this Revision, 

 of species attributable to Group vi. They are as follows : —
