170 CRYPTODERMA LOBATUM. 



dirty white; beneath the indistinct lateral stripe on the pro- 

 sternum, just above the coxae, and the lateral margins of 

 the nieso- and metasternum dirty white. 



Antennae slightly reaching beyond the apex of the rostrum. 



Prothorax considerably uarrower than the elytra at the 

 shoulders, the sides subparallel, narrowing in faintly curved 

 lines anteriorly, very slightly convex above, covered with 

 pits which are smaller and less deep than those on the elytra. 



Elytra rather strongly convex, broadest at the shoulders 

 which are strongly developed and subangular; when seen 

 from above the elytra are slightly narrowing in straight 

 lines as far as the strongly developed apical tubercles, be- 

 hind these the elytra are more strongly narrowing in slightly 

 curved lines ; the base of each elytron forms between the 

 scutellum and the shoulders a rounded lobe which is neither 

 turned upwards (covering the base of the prothorax) nor 

 crenated. Each elytron shows two strongly raised costae, 

 which extend from the basal lobe to the apical tubercle. 

 Between the two costae and between the 1 st costa and the 

 sutural interstice there are two rows of large, deep, round 

 pits; outside the 2 Q(1 costa many of the pits have an 

 elongated shape. 



The punctuation on the under surface and legs is not 

 dense and shallow.
