brown, feinora(exclucling apic('s)pic'eous ; tegmina greyish, opaque, 

 base darlc i'uscous, a little paler on apical area \\ here there are two 

 brown marginal spots, one at apex, the other near posterior angle 

 of inner margin ; lateral pronotal processes as seen fi-oiu above 

 broad, tlattened, strongly ampliated at apices, broadly convexly 

 rounded anteriorl}^ strongly angularly produced behind middle, 

 then concavely sinuate and again more obtusely angiilate, as 

 viewed from the front much narrower, more recurved, their apices 

 appearing biaugulate ; posterior ])rocess aluiost unicolorous, some-

The species iigured by Buckton as rectangulatum (Monogi-. 

 Membrac. p. 215, t. xlviii, f. 3, a, h) is very doubtfully that 

 species. Melichar states that it is identical A^ith jpilosum. Walk., 

 which the figures of the two species (types) here given will 

 correct.

This species is allied to A. reda»r/nlatam and differs principally 

 by the greater space between the lateral and posterior pronotal
