G7G REVISION OF THE GEXUS PAROPSIS, 



lateribus baud deplanatis, angulis posticis magis rotundatis; 

 scutello punctulato; elytris sub callum humeralem leviter 

 depressis, pone basin vix impressis, vseriatim sat subtiliter 

 (latera versus magis fortiter) punctulatis, verrucis parvis 

 modice distinctis seriatim instructis, interstitiis sat planis 

 (apicem versus magis rugulosis), parte marginali a disco vix 

 (ajjicem versus subdistincto) distincto ; calli humeralis 

 margine interno asutura quam abelytrorum margine laterali 

 baud multo magis distanti; segmento ventrali basali sparsim 

 subtibus punctulato. Long. 34, lat. 24 Hues. 

 Also resembbng P. foveata superficially, but at once distinguish- 

 able from it and its other near allies inter alia by the very much 

 finer puncturation of its elytra, and by the inner edge of the 

 humeral callus being very little nearer to the lateral margin than 

 to the suture. Also resembles l\ seriata, Germ., but differs from 

 it inter alia by the presence of a depression below the humeral 

 callus.
