392 REVISION OF THE AMYCTERIDES, li., 



inter veiling ridges not granulate ; interstices rather strongly- 

 raised, sutural with granules only, more evident at base; second 

 closely set with about twenty-five granules, rounded, feebly 

 flattened, basally becoming conical and tuberculiform posteriorly, 

 and extending half-way down declivity; third with basal granules 

 in double series to middle, thence as on second; fourth less pro- 

 minent, with smaller, more distant, granules in single series to 

 middle; fifth similar to third, but tubercles slightly smaller; sixth 

 with a single row similar to fifth; sides with rounded, somewhat 

 depressed granules. Below, with a narrow median vitta of black 

 hair extending anteriorly to metasternum, posteriorly widened 

 out on fifth segment, the latter with a shallow impression ob- 

 scured by the vitta. Legs simple. 



9. Clothing lighter, with darker areas maculate with white, 

 and without granules on fourth interstice; beneath, convex, with- 

 out median vitta, subnitid, apical segment with a few white 

 scales, transversely compressed above apex. Dimensions : ^,15*5 

 x 6; Q, 17 x 6-5 mm.

Closely allied to S. Manglesi, but with the elytral interstices 

 more closely granulate or tuberculate, the tubercles being placed 

 so close as to give the interstices a serrate appearance. I hardly 

 think that this can be S. melanopsis Pasc; as, of that species, 

 the author states— "niger, nitidus, supra esquamosus . . . ", and 

 gives the length as 6 lines. I have seen abraded specimens of 

 both this species and S. geniculate but none so small as 6 lines. 



There is a species, in Mr. Lea's Collection, bearing a label in 

 Arrow's handwriting, " Tal. Manglesi (of your collection) is T. 

 melanopsis Pasc." The specimens are females of the species I 

 regard as being almost certainly S. Manglesi Bohem. If this, 

 synonymy is correct, T. melanopsis must have been founded on 

 a small abraded example.
