length of, the thorax, irregularly punctate, bistriate on each side 

 of the suture, and with a large smooth nearly square spot on the

202. Tmesisternus lineatus. n. sp. 



In form very like the last species, the median line of the head 

 more deeply impressed, and that of the thorax not glabrous. A 

 broad, smooth vitta occupies the sides of thorax, and extends 

 along the lateral margins of the elytra to the apex. The scutellum 

 is pubescent and the elytra are marked with about four, more or 

 less interrupted lines of pubescence from the base to near the apex, 

 where the pubescence takes the form of oblique spots and lines. 

 Two or three of these spots encroach on the lateral vitta near 

 the apex, and one, very minute, above the middle. There are three 

 slightly raised lines on each elytron. The under surface is 

 whitish, with small brown spots. 



Length, 7 lines.
