of the two antemeilian spots ou each elj'trou we find iu fasciatus one entire trans- 

 verse band of 1 mm. width, slightly dilated backwards npon the suture; the edges 

 of the band are somewhat undulate; behind tlie middle there is a second, much 

 narrower baud, which is interrupted at the suture as in curians ; the two spots 

 before tlie ajiex of the elytra, the sjwts on the pygidium, and the spots of the 

 underside are the same as iu rarians, with the exception of the spots on the 

 abdomen, which are iu fasciatus much smaller.
