4"™ nigris, ceteris basi obscure testaceis, apice nigro-fuscis. Long. 

 10 72- Lai. 3 mm. 



Garin Mts. (Gheba district) , alt. 900-1100 m. Two male 

 examples. 



The lateral carina of the elytra is less distinct in this species 

 than in most of the known species of Nupserha. In size and 

 coloration it somewhat resembles N. uslulata^ Erichs., from which 

 it is easily to be distinguished by the character just mentioned 

 as well as by the absence of a distinct dorsal costa from the 

 elytra, the obscurely annulated antennae and other less im- 

 portant characters. The last ventral segment of the male of the 

 present species has a rather deep triangular depression on the 

 posterior third. 



Nupserha annulala, Thoms. (Slibara) approaches the present 

 species very closely in structural characters, and is to be di- 

 stinguished from it by its concolorous (yellowish-testaceous) 

 apices of the elytra, the more distinct fuscous colour at the 

 margins of the elytra, which, however, does not reach the 

 base or apex, the fuscous spot or band at each side of the 

 prothorax^ and by the almost entire greyish-black colour of 

 the underside of the body.
