 penis long and slender, rather sudderdy and strongly widened

Hab. Si-Rambe. 



Of this species there are two male specimens before me which, 

 like several other closely allied species have the same colouration 

 as the common T. impressa. Fab. T. Modiglianii is however at 

 once distinguished from the latter species by the absence of the 

 intermediate dilated joints of the antennae and the want of costae 

 of the elytra ; the penis is also of different structure , that of 

 T. impressa, although equally slender, tapers gradually towards 

 the apex instead of Ijeing widened at that portion, and ends 

 into a rather acute triangular point without tooth or liook. 



153. Theopea clypeata, n. sp. — Fulvous, the antennae black, 

 the apical three joints yellowish-white, thorax biimpressed, with 

 purplish gloss, elytra metallic blue, closely and strongly })unc-

Length 2 lines. 



Head minutely granulate, impunctate, the vertex with a \)nv- 

 plish tint, the clypeus in shape of an acutely raised triangular 

 or semicircular ridge and connected with another acutely raised 

 ridge dividing the antennae, palpi juceous, antennae slender, 

 pubescent, black, the a})ical three joints whitish, third joint 

 slightly shorter than the fourth, thorax not longer than broad, 

 of usual shape, slightly narrowed at the base, the disc bifoveo- 

 late at the middle, finely granulate and very minutely punctured, 

 scutellum fulvous, elytra strongly and irregularly punctured, the 

 interstices unevenly rugose and obsoletely longitudinally costate 

 towards the sides, underside and legs fulvous, the metatarsus
