186 PACHYTERIA HAGENI. 



the frontmargin of the clypeus and the sides of the la- 

 brum brown , the mandibles black ; the face and inter- 

 anteunary ridge slightly pubescent. The two basal joints 

 of the antennae black , the third light brown , darker to- 

 wards the base, and with a small black spot at the top 

 on the frontside; the remainder joints yellow. The pro- 

 thorax dull red , the extreme anterior and posterior mar- 

 gins bronzy green as well as the middle portion of the 

 underside , which is moreover covered with a yellowish 

 pubescence. The scutellum very densely covered with a 

 black pubescence, except at the dark brown tip. The basal 

 half of the elytra ochraceous , with a very faint greenish 

 hue, the rest bronzy green; the line of demarkation be- 

 tween these colours slightly oblique and suddenly directed 

 backwards at a little distance from the lateral margins. 

 Body beneath dark blue; legs black. 



Head coarsely punctured on the vertex and behind the 

 eyes , more finely on the cheeks and base of mandibles , 

 very finely and densely on the clypeus and on the inter- 

 antennary ridge; the frontal groove extends from the ver- 

 tex down to the base of the clypeus; the clypeus itself is 

 even , provided along its middle with an impressed line 

 and at its base with a transverse elevation which is in- 

 terrupted in the middle and rather smooth ; the labrum is 

 very finely punctured , the mandibles towards the tips nearly 

 impunctate. The antennae are stout; the scape is short, 

 rugose, with a smooth keel along the foreside, the S^d joint 

 nearly as long as the two following joints taken together , 

 the 4tli a little shorter than the 5^"^, this and the two 

 following of equal size, the S^^ — lO^t slightly decreasing, 

 the apical one distinctly longer. 



Prothorax but little longer than broad at the base , the 

 sides slightly angulated, the angles terminating in a small 

 tubercle; the anterior and posterior margin strongly uptur- 

 ned ; transversely wrinkled on the upper surface and si- 

 des; on the disk these wrinkles are irregularly confluent 

 and the intervals provided with some erect black hairs.
