and soft pubescence ; the sides of the prosternura coarsely

2. Dichodontus grandis., n. sp. 9- 



Length 46 mm., width of the shoulders of the elytra 

 23 mm. — Of a dark pitchy-brown colour approaching 

 to black; the pubescence of the pygidium, undersurface 

 of the body, and of the legs dark rusty red. 



The head is densely covered with transverse wrinkles , 

 and provided on the middle of the vertex with a raised 

 tubercle ; the front margin of the clypeus sharply and strongly 

 reflexed , finely emarginate in the middle , the lateral an- 

 gles subrounded. The basal joint of the antennae strongly 

 punctured. 



The prothorax is margined , and similar in shape to that 

 of the female of Dichodontus Croesus Fabr. ; with the ex- 

 ception of a large slightly elevated rounded patch just be- 

 fore the middle of the basal margin its whole uppersurface 

 is covered with a sculpture which is rather similar to that 

 of the head ; on the rounded patch alluded to only a few 

 dispersed deep punctures are present, and between this 

 patch and the front margin of the thorax a large impres- 

 sion may be observed. The middle and the margins of 

 the scutellum are smooth , the rest is covered with an ir- 

 regular sculpture. 



The .elytra are smooth and shining and apparently im- 

 punctate , but with the aid of a lens small punctures thinly 

 scattered over the surface are visible; an impressed sutural 

 stria is present on each elytron.
