Color ftniyish hnzlc : surface covered witli n short gray nap. Thorax armed in the middle 

 with a short spine : elytra ornanienteil with un ol»li<iue ochre-yellow l>ar near the 

 thorax. Extreme length \\ inch. Antennie of the males more tlian twice as long as 

 the body : scutellum is triangular, ami yellowish in color ; while the elytra are 

 margined, and tipi>c<l with two small si>ines. 

 Tliis inhabits the hickory : its liirva- form galkrles in the trunk of the tree, which run 



I>arallel to the grain of the wood. 



Cr.RAMBix? . ( Plate xxvi, flg. 9.) 



Color Mack. Antenna; ten-jointe<l ; hasal joint oval and short, tuUrculated, tul>erch8 



minute ; last joint long, slender ; second joint marly Kjual the last ; the r« mainder 



nearly equal in length. Head with a prominence over each eye nnd a pndoncatiun at 



the Wv of each antenna, making ui>on the fn-nt a deeji longitudinal gnK'Ve. Thorax 



appears to l>o transversely nigose, cylindrical, without ttd>ercles or spines, but rather 



thickeue«l k-hiud, differing in that resin-ct fmni the thorax of n Saptrda, and slightly 



constricted near tli<- elytra. Klytra tliirkly punctured, hut scarcely confluent. The 



lower part of the tiliia- and tarsi hiiiry, but confiued to the forelegs ; the others lieing 



only slightly hairy, if at all. 



Tliis insect would make a very go<xl tuprrdn, were it not for the extreme leni^th of the 



iUitennie and the form ami character of the Ijnsal joint. I am not entirely sjitisftwl with its 



rdVnnce to the Genus Ceaambix, still its characters do not materially disnfcree with those 



given by Mr Wmtwwd. 1.^'ngth rather more than \ of an inch.
