 The species which I include in this genus only differ from those of the preceding genus 

 in not having the second and third joints of the tarsi Obviously lobed; the fourth joint, 

 therefore, though only half the size of the preceding, is not received upon it: the lir.-t joint 

 - lone as the two following united. 

 This genus will eventually be merged with the preceding, in which case the two spe< ii - 

 here described, forming the first group, having the posterior angles of the thorax nol i i- 

 rinated, and the third joint of the antenna equal to the fourth, \\ ill enter the division i A ## ,) 

 before Pedetes Bright welli; those of the second group will enter (U ## .)

 taccous: the suture- and margin of the elytra darker. I lend coarsely punctured, with the 

 front very much pro 'nerd, deeply excavated: antennae a little longer than the thorax, bud- 

 scrratc; second joint small, third equal to the fourth: thorax longer than wide, anteriorl) 

 not narrowed. Bides very slightly rounded, almost straight, distinctly margined, margin 

 relieved posteriorly, so that the posterior angles become elevated, as in Pedeti - Bright- 

 welli; angles aim • i rectangular, with a very indefinite trace ofa carina; disc slightly con- 



. coarsely punctured, punctures denser and confluent at the sides: elytra parallel 

 tusely rounded posteriorly; striae punctured, interstices slightly convex, with a few distinct 

 punctur
