124 APOGONIA ADORETOIDES. 



the face , aud consequently strongly transverse ; the sides 

 (when viewed laterally) strongly rounded behind the 

 middle , the anterior angles acute but not at all protrud- 

 ing, the basal ones broadly rounded almost without per- 

 ceptible angle , the middle-lobe faintly indicated , the base 

 finely margined; the pronotura very regularly densely 

 punctured. The scutellum broadly rounded posteriorly , its 

 punctuation similar to that of the pronotura. 



The elytra extremely densely and regularly punctured 

 all over (the punctures finer and closer set than those on 

 the pronotum) , the presence of the two costae only indi- 

 cated by their faint convexity, the second one even almost 

 imperceptible. 



The punctures on the under surface are somewhat Avider 

 apart than those on the elytra , the middle of the meta- 

 sternum , however, is much more distantly punctured; the 

 punctuation on the propygidium agrees with that of the 

 abdomen, that on the pygidium is stronger and wider 

 apart. The femora are sparsely , the tibiae strongly 

 punctured. 



The anterior tibiae have two very strong teeth , and 

 the indication of a third one towards the middle.
