Aiiumala icalheri, Arrow, Trans. Eut. Soc. Loud. 1899, p. 271. 

 Anomala humeralis, Walker,* Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist. (3) iii, 1859, 

 p. 56. 



Bright testaceous yellow, with the head and tarsi reddish, the 

 vertex, and frequently a very narrow sutural line and the posterior 

 part of the outer edges of the elytra, black. Tiie humeral calli are 

 occasionally very slightly stained, but never exhibit a definite 

 black spot. 



The body is rather broad and convex. The head is small, but 

 the eyes are large ; the clypeue is short, nearly straight in front 

 and rugose, and the forehead closely punctured. The pronotum 

 is finely and moderately closely punctured, but less closely 

 along the middle line, with the sides rounded, the front angles 

 slightly acuminate and the hind angles obtuse, the base margined 

 and scarcely prominent in the middle. The scutellum bears a few 

 punctures, and the elytra are deeply striate-punctate, the second 

 row of punctures disrupted in the anterior half. The pygidium 

 is rather closely punctured. The lower surface is very scantily 

 clothed with hair. The front tibia bears two strong teeth and 

 an exceedingly feeble upper one, and the hind tibia is inflated 

 in its upper half, strongly constricted posteriorly and dilated at 

 the apex. 



J . The clypeus is smaller and the eyes are larger than in the 

 female, the apical tooth of the front tibia is short and sharp, and 

 the larger front claw a little thickened. The club of the antenna 

 is vei'y long. 



5 . The form is shorter and broader, the hind angles of the 

 prothorax more rounded, and the apical tooth of the front tibia 

 longer and blunter than in the male. The antennal club is 

 moderately long.
