PACHYTERIA APICALIS. 221 



vous spot on the metasternal episterna. Legs ochraceous, 

 the femora and coxae darker, somewhat brownish and 

 with very faint purplish tinges under certain lights. The 

 sides of the prosternum densely and finely punctate , the 

 punctures becoming gradually larger and more distant near 

 the middle. The breast is covered with extremely fine and 

 closely set punctures, which are intermixed with a few 

 large and deep ones; clothed with a delicate silvery pu- 

 bescence. The abdomen with some large distant punctures, 

 which are somewhat more numerous on the last ventral 

 segments; the 5 th segment is very deeply semicircularly 

 emarginate , the 6 th segment more broadly so ; the hinder- 

 margin of the 1 st segment is clothed with a rather broad 

 band of silvery pile , whilst on the two following segments 

 a similar but narrower band is broadly interrupted in the 

 middle. Legs slender , the hinder femora almost reaching 

 the apex of the elytra, thighs and shins rather coarsely 

 punctured, the sculpture of the former closest near the 

 knees; tibiae fringed with fulvous hairs at the innerside. 

 This species is most nearly allied to P. ochracea C. 0. 

 Waterh., but clearly distinct by the different coloration of 

 the elytra and antennae. The structure of the prothorax is 

 also quite different. 



N.B. There is made use of this opportunity for publishing 

 on Plate 10 a figure of three already described species 

 of Longicorn beetles , viz. :
