swollen behind the eyes. The mandibles very short and 

 broad. The in'onotimi with strongly raised lateral and basal 

 margins, the sides gently rounded to bej^ond the middle, very 

 bluntly angular there, and then feebly eoncave to the very 

 obtuse hind angles. The elytra relatively small, a little 

 narrowed at the shoulders, which are rounded, and the sides 

 distinctly flattened and rather strongly rounded. The pro- 

 sternum feebly jiroduced and acute. 



$. The head is flat and rugosely punctured, with the canthus 

 laterally promijient and narrow. The mandibles are very 

 short, broader than they are long, coarsely punctured and not 

 reflexed at the tip. The nwntum is coarsely punctured and 

 bears only a few hairs. The legs are a little shorter than those 

 of the male, and the tarsi are distinctly shorter than the tibiae. 



cJ. Very similar to the female, but the head is smooth, 

 opaque and a little larger and less transverse, with the canthus 

 broader and more rounded. The mandibles are very short 

 but more strongly serrate at the inner edge, and reflexed at the 

 tip. The menturn is entirely covered with short erect reddish 

 hairs. The front tibia is a little longer than that of the female, 

 its terminal spur is hooked, and the middle tibia has also a 

 liooked terminal spur, as well as a small tuft of yellow hairs 

 at the end of its inner edge. 



Variation of the male. I have seen only two males, in both 

 of which the mandibles are shorter than the head. In the 

 smaller specimen (in the British Museum) the inner edges of 

 tlie mandibles are in contact throughout. In the larger 

 exain2)le (from the Genoa Museum) they are separated except 

 at the tips.
