 separated from that species by being more strongly shining and 

 by the pubescence on the elytra being white and irregularly separated 

 into distinct spots. 



ELAPHroiON MANNI, new species 



Female. — Broadly elongate, moderately convex above, and similar

 reddish brown, moderately shining, and irregularly clothed with 

 recumbent, gray pubescence. 



Head very si^arsely, coarsely punctate, longitudinally rugose, 

 rather densely, irregularly clothed with moderately long, recumbent, 

 grayish pubescence, front distinctly wider than long, nearly flat be-

 erect hairs on the underside of the joints, the following joints finely, 

 densely punctate, rather densely clothed with short, recumbent, white 

 pubescence, and joints 3 to 10 bispinose at apices; first joint robust, 

 strongly clavate, slightly flattened on top, and subequal in length to 

 the third joint, which is slightly longer than the fourth, the follow- 

 ing joints becoming gradually shorter; eleventh joint subequal in 

 length to the tenth, and slightly expanded near apex. 



Pronotum slightly wider than long, and about equal in width at
