side of scape of antennns which are bright orange (almost red in life) ; thickly clothed 

 with black hair, which are erect and especially so on the anterior part of the elytra ; 

 the elytra bear also, a little in front of the middle, a vague broad transverse band com- 

 posed of recumbent cinereous hairs and less conspicuous clouds of same at apex and 

 base. Head and thorax confluently punctate, elytra less deeply punctate but more 

 nearly tuberculate in sculpture and vaguely subcostate near suture. Body beneath 

 and legs similarly roughly sculptured. Abdomen feebly punctate and more shining. 

 Eyes large, finely granulate, emarginate for insertion of antenna;. Thorax con- 

 stricted at the sides, disc deeply impressed in front of the middle ; the impression, 

 which is of uniform depth and slightly arcuate posteriorly, reaches from side to side, 

 connecting the constrictions of the side margin, behind the impression the thorax is 

 rounded and convex. Length, lo mm. :- .40 inch ; width, 3.8 mm. =.15 inch. 



One specimen, taken on .summit of Screamer Mt., Rabun Co., 

 Ga., June 15, 1909; elevation, 3,500 feet. 



This species closely resembles C. s/'/ie^ez/s in size, form and sculp- 

 ture but differs in color, maculation and form of thorax which in 

 sp/iegeus is much flattened behind the impression. The orange color 

 of the hind femora is also a most conspicuous difference. I take 

 pleasure in naming this insect for my friend, Louis H. Joutel, in recog- 

 nition of his studies in the Cleridae.

Second lobes very broad, feebly crenulated. .Spines dis-
