 jnst above and in front of tlie apex of the lateral carina and two snbajiieal dots, a 

 nebnlons patch before middle of elytra, common to both, and another before apical 

 declivity, and a nnmber of lateral dots on elytra more densely pubescent white. 

 Underside speckled with clayish white, the pnboscence condensed laterally ; an 

 indistinct mesial mark on pronotum in front of carina, and a dot at each side of disc 

 behind middle of the same clayish white colonr. Tibiae brown at base and apex. 

 Tarsi entirely brown above. 



Pale end-segment of antenna longer than ninth. Pronotnm convex, depressed 

 behind ; hinder angle as in njax, being abont '.M) , with the tip distinctly rounded 

 off; side not sinuate before angle. Elytra slightly depressed at suture, subbasal 

 callosity and third interspace very feebly elevate. Mesosternum with rounded 

 tubercle between coxae. Hind tibia of c? with apical, ventral, obtuse process.

?. Stouter than calcaratus, which it resembles, more densely pubescent grej'- 

 white ; lateral spot of pronotum less distinct ; alternate interspaces of elytra 

 obviously tesselated with brown and white ; tibiae nearly entirely grey-white ; first 

 and greater part of second tarsal segments grey-white above, third black ; second of 

 anterior tarsus nearly black. Rostrum and frons much broader than in calcaratus, 

 mesially canaliculate, the latter twice as wide as the eye is high in frontal view. 

 Second auteunal segment snbglobular, ninth nearly twice the length of the tenth, 

 but shorter than the eleventh, which is twice as long as broad. Lateral angle of 

 pronotal carina more strongly rounded than in calcaratus and ajax. Alternate 

 interspaces of elytrum slightly but distinctly elevate. Mesosternal process vertical, 

 somewhat slanting at apex, not convex, not tuberculate, apical margin rounded. 

 First mid- and hindtarsal segments much longer than second.
