present. Yulenia proper are smaller insect and the thorax is 

 short and transverse, not broadly subquadrate, nor are the 

 antennae so long and robust. 



MOROKASIA, gen. n 



Body elongate, glabrous, the frontal elevations of the head 

 obsolete, antennae filiform, the third joint twice as long as the 

 second, thorax transverse, the anterior angles oblique, posterior 

 margin rounded, elytral epipleurse broad, continued below the 

 middle, tibiae unarmed, claws bifid, anterior coxal cavities open. 

 I am obliged to separate this insect generically from Yulenia Jac. 

 and Itylus with which it has most of the structural characters in 

 common, but differs in the absence of frontal elevations and princi- 

 pally in the shape of the thorax, which is much more transverse 

 in shape and shorter than in Yulenia and quite different in regard 

 to the anterior angles which are obliquely thickened as well as 

 in the rounded basal margin, the general shape of the thorax 

 is more that of the genus Antipha; the comparative size of 

 the joints of the antennae also differ from that of Yulenia and 

 the elytra have reliexed margins which is not the case in the 

 last named genus.

 tate, the lateral margins flavous, elytra finely punctured, pale

 black.

 row central groove, frontal elevations absent, antennae extending 

 beyond the middle of the elytra, black, the last joint yellowish
