sericeous, two small basal spots on scutellura and sides of sternum 

 very densely sericeous ; lateral pronotal processes depressed, 

 truncated, bicarinate above. 



" Head between eyes a little shorter tban broad, beneath the 

 eyes abruptly and very much narrowed ; face gradually slightly 

 narrowed, subtruncate, freely produced downward for some 

 distance ; pronotum punctured, armed on both sides anteriorly 

 above the lateral angles with a depressed horn-like process, very 

 slightly narrowed towards the apex, truncated at apex, bicarinate 

 above and beueath ; anterior apical angle of the processes rounded, 

 posterior somewhat acute ; posterior process distinctly carinate, 

 very broadly sinuate in the middle above, a little amplified beneath 

 in the middle, reaching the apex of the scutellum, very slightly 

 decurved towards the apex ; tegmiua fuscous-feiTuginous or 

 ferruginous-grey, punctured at the base." (StdL)

Scutellum transverse, nearly equally long as broad, the apex 

 broad, sinuate or truncate, and on each side prominently dentate ; 

 wings with four apical areas.

a. Posteiior pronotal process remote from 



scutellum. 

 a. Posterior pronotal process curved at base 



and then obliquely directed downwai'd, 



its apex touching or nearly touching tlie 



posterior angle of inner tegminal margin ; 



sometimes passing it Leptockntrus, 



h. Posterior pronotal process straight, not [p. 28. 



curved at base, not obliquely directed 



downward, its apex remote from tegmina 



and scarcely reaching posterior angle of 



inner tegminal margin XiLAt tama, p. •(2. 



b. Posterior pronotal process robust, more or 



less impinging on scutellum and inner 

 tegminal margin. 

 a. Pronotum more or less gibbous before base 

 of posterior process.
