* 7. T. modestus, nov. spec. 



Prcecedenti afjinis sed difert (cT) colore obscuriore^ anten- 

 nis robustioribus , rostro base trisulcato , squamoso ; capite 

 similiter conformato at sulco profitndiore et supra magis bilo- 

 bato, evidenter punctata; prothorace magis punctata; punctis 

 squamasis; elytris sulcata- punctatis ^ sulcis latiaribus , punctis 

 squamulis ferentibus , apici margine minus explanato : Q ca- 

 pite brem, magis punctata et sulcata, rastro past antennas 

 nan canaliculato ; elytris apici brevi margine terminatis. 



Loug. 6 — 8 mm.; lat. max. prothor. P/4 — 2 mm. 



Allied to the foregoing species but certainly distinct. — 

 Chestnut-reddish , the elytra brown-reddish with the sutural 

 line darker in the basal half and two blackish spots 

 behind the middle. The antennae are more robust, the 

 three apical joints broader. Rostrum at the base trisulcate , 

 and furrowed also at the sides , scattered with minute 

 scales; the median furrow does not extend to the apex 

 which is finely punctured ; beneath the rostrum has a carina 

 along the middle and the lateral margins are raised : in the 

 female the apical portion is filiform , more slender , not 

 furrowed. The head is similarly shaped as in T. insularis 

 but above it is punctured , distinctly bilobed and deeply 

 furrowed ; the furrow scaled like the basal and lateral not- 

 ches; the notch in the middle is broader. The prothorax 

 has the punctures at the sides more numerous than in T. 

 insularis. The elytra are sulcato-punctate , the furrows 

 broader and the interstices more raised , the suture is 

 broad , the first furrow narrow and impunctate , the apex 

 with the edge less explanate. Body beneath and legs as 

 in the foregoing species, but the 2nd abdominal segment 

 slightly depressed.
