APPENDIX— GOLEOPTERA. 73 



Elongate, rather narrow, somewhat flattened above, dull black. Head 

 very short, extremely finely rugulose ; eyes lateral, transverse, ])laced at the 

 side of the rostrum ; rostrum about two-thirds the length of tlie prothorax, 

 wider in front than behind, rather strongly constricted in the middle, strongly 

 rugose-punctate. Antenna? pitchy black, the club covered with grey pubes- 

 cence. Prothorax longer than liroad, moderately strongly constricted in 

 front, strongly rugose-punctate and with small scattered tubercles on the disc, 

 with a strong longitudinal smooth impression extending from just behind the 

 anterior margin to the base ; sides rather strongly arcuate. Scutellum absent. 

 Elytra considerably more than twice as long as the head and prothorax 

 together, narrower in front than behind, somewhat constricted just behind

the posterior two-thirds, strongly rugose-punctate, spaiingly and indistinctly 

 tuberculate on the disc, the sides rather smoother and more evidently 

 punctured, very sparingly covered with short erect hairs ; with a short 

 longitudinal elevation at the base on each side of the suture and a much 

 stronger and similarly placed elevation at the apex ; the humeral angles 

 raised ; sides arcuate. Underside dull black ; the sterna somewhat rugose, 

 moderately strongly but obsoletely punctured ; the abdominal segments much 

 more strongly punctured. Legs black, tarsi 2"»itchy. Length, 9 mm. 



This species has something of the appearance of Anclwnus celsus, Bohem., 

 but structurally is quite different ; the rostrum is nariowei', the prothorax 

 shorter and l)roader, and tlie sculpture of the upper surface is quite dissimilar 

 as will be seen upon comparing the descriptions.
