Size of P. hasselti, Rits., but of a broader, more robust and compact form, 

 and more olive green coloiir above. The head is smaller and much more strongly 

 punctured, the clypevis not widened in front and with a smaller apical notch, 

 the prothorax altogether broader, more deeply sulcate behind, and more 

 narrowly margined at the sides, the elytra more strongly punctured and less 

 deeply emarginate at the apex, the pygidium very much broader, and Avith a 

 deep and strongly sinuous aciculation, which gives a scale-like appearance, 

 especially towards the apex ; the mesosternal process is longer and almost acute 

 at its apex, the aciculation on the apical abdominal segment is stronger and 

 more sinuous, and the anterior tibiae are broader and with the teeth larger.

PSEUDOCHALCOTHEA MACROPHYLLA, n. Sp. 



Pallide Jlavo-viridis, corpore .^uhtus pedihusque laete prasino, antennis 

 tarsisque piceis, clypeo margine antico cupreo, elytris callo hunierali rufo- 

 castaneo. Capiie obsolete et remote punctata, antics parum dilatato, clypeo 

 marginihus elevatis, apice rotundato, vix siyiuato ; prothorace lateribus leviter 

 sinuatis, marginatis ; dytris lateribus postice acicul alls ; processu mesoster- 

 nali longe producto, apice incurvato, sub-acuto. $. Antennarum flabello 

 longissimo (4| mm.) ; pygidio transversim aclculato, apice sulcato ; abdomine 

 canaliculato, segmento ultimo transversivi sulcato, leviter emarginato ; tihiis 

 anticis inermis, posticis apice jiavo-fasciculato. ? . Pygidio brevi, leviter 

 asperato ; abdomine segmento ultimo aclculato; tlblls anticis lateribus bi- 

 dentatis. Long., 23 — 24 mm. 



The upper surface is smooth, but under a lens an extremely fine and 

 remote punctuation is discernible on the head and thorax, and there are 

 scattered coarse punctures on the clypeus, sides of the thorax, and apical pai't 

 of the elytra; the surface of the latter is also a little uneven behind the 

 middle and at the sides. In the male there are widely scattered punctiires on 

 the sides of the metasternum, and in the female these are more numerous and 

 somewhat strigiform. In form and size P. macrophylla is nearest to the pre- 

 ceding species, but in the form of its clypeus and its unarmed hind tibice, with 

 a simple apical spine, it does not come within the definition of this genus, 

 and approaches Glyptothea.
