9 — Elytra with two more or less definite and approximate, but non-coalescent, 



dark spots very near the base 10 



Elytra each with a small subsutural spot at some distance behind the scutel- 



lum 13 



10 — Elytra without maculation between the transverse band and basal spots, 



except occasionally near the lateral edges 11 



Elytra with a i>osteriorly arcuate transverse band between the fascia and the 

 base, which is composed of six short longitudinal dashes of slightly 

 darker brow nish-piceous tint ; subbasal spots also pale brown, large and 



indefinite 12 



11 — Subbasal spots prolonged obliquely outward, enclosing the pale humei'i; 

 erect haii-s of the elytra very long and bristling; thoracic process strongly 



constricted at base liuiuboldti n. sp. 



Subbasal spots not obliquelj^ prolonged. 



Tlioracic i^rocess uan'ower and more gradually acuminate, not or feebly 

 constricted at base and generallj' differing but little sexually. 

 Elytra each with a subapical diffused spot of darker tint, (vars. pilatei and 



decoloratiis Laf. ) Ilioiiocloii Fab. 



Elytra invariably pale behind the transverse fascia. 



Erect hairs of the elytra shorter and more inconspicuous; transverse 

 fascia more even; vestiture finer and more decumbent. 

 Thoracic process moderate in size; sides of the elytra invariably pale. 

 Body stout, the black fascia extending almost to the sides. 



aiistiiiianus n. sp. 



Body narrow, the black fascia scarcely extending at all beyond 



the median line of each elytron, and having the form of two 



inverted commas filicornis n. sp. 



Thoracic process very large, often fully one-half as wide as the pro- 

 thorax; sides of the elj^tra dark dinoceriis n. sp. 



Erect hairs very long and bristling; vestiture coarser; fascia nar- 

 rower and acutely zig-zag desertiis n. sp. 



Thoracic process broadly spatuliform, strongly constricted at base at least 

 in the female. 

 Smaller species, the elytral apices simple in the male. 



coiistrictus n. sp. 

 Large species, the apices narrowly truncate in the male.. .i'ol>iistiis n. sp. 

 12 — Transverse fascia broad, interrupted at the suture, {digitafus Lee). 



serratus Lee. 



13— Transverse fascia much broken up alaniedae n. sp. 



14 — Elytra with a transverse band between the fascia and the base, which is 

 prolonged posteriorly along the siiture joining the fascia; body narrow, 



elongate and parallel pictus n. sp. 



Elj'tra without the intermediate band. 



Elytral apices dark in color, the sides behind basal third also dark; larger 



species, ( marginatus Lee. ) apicalis Lee. 



Elytral apices pale as usual; small species; fascia feeble in tint, nubilate 

 and strongly zig-zag cavicoriiis Lee.
