punctured, not fringed with hairs ; pectus, ahdomen, and legs as in 

 A. damara ; anterior tibiae bi-dentate outwardly, inner claw of 

 anterior and intermediate tarsi simple in the male, cleft in the female.

Anomala exitialis, n. spec, 

 Plate XLI., fig. 31. 



Very closely allied to A. exoleta ; the colour, shape, and sculp- 

 ture are similar, but the size is somewhat larger ; the difference 

 is in the shape of the clypeus, which is more parallel laterally, the 

 outer angles are not quite so broadly rounded, and the anterior 

 part is almost truncate ; the head and clypeus are a little more 

 roughly punctured, the aciculation of the prothorax is more distinct, 

 and the anterior tibiae have either a third basal not very pronounced 

 outer tooth or a distinct sinuation ; the shape of the genital armature 

 of the male differs much from that of any other South African 

 species ; the inner claw of the anterior and intermediate tarsi is 

 simple in the male, cleft in the female. 



Length 17-18 mm. ; width 9-9^ mm.

This species closely resembles .1. exoleta and A. exitialis, but 

 it is not quite so pale testaceous, the clypeus is longer, quite 

 parallel laterally, while the anterior part is very slightly arcuate 

 with the outer angles only moderately rounded, and the anterior 

 margin is conspicuously reflexed ; the punctures on the elytra are 

 rounder and less rugose, and the intervals are very little raised ; the 

 inner claw of the anterior tarsi is slightly cleft in the male, but in 

 the female that of the anterior and of the intermediate ones are 

 deeply incised. The shape of the genital armature of the male is 



* In Boheman's type the fore tibise are tri-dentate but the basal tooth is very 

 small, whereas they are bi-dentate in A. .toUda [inutatu), Ai-ro\v, but there is no 

 doubt that the two species are one owing to the similarity of the genital armature.
