narrowly impunctate and paler, the cicatrices equally smooth and 

 l)lack, the black colour becoming more and more diffused behind 

 the cicatrices on each side of the median longitudinal line, which 

 remains entirely flavous ; all the .surface covered with long bristly 

 hairs as on the head ; scutellum very broadly black at the base, 

 strongly granulose, punctured on all the surface excepting the 

 pale whitish apex which remains suiooth and obtusely carinate, 

 similarly pilose as on prouotum ; corium flavous, glossy, brilliant, 

 with the extreme base blackish and a large black brilliant sub- 

 rounded and rather irregular sj)ot on the middle of the disk, a 

 pilosity resembling that of the scutellum near the base and on the 

 edges, scarcer on the disk and nearly absent near the apex ; 

 membrane narrowly white, milky at the base, brilliant black on the 

 disk and the apical area which does not extend beyond the 

 abdominal apex ; head beneath aud sternum flavous, the punc- 

 tuation brownish, impnnctate and pale at the coxal cavities, the 

 orifices, the anterior margin of the presternum and more narrowly 

 at the posterior margins of the meso- and metasterna ; abdomen 

 entirely brilliant black, with a large pale yellov/ spot on the 

 posterior half of each of the segments of the connexivum ; legs 

 pale yellow, tibia3 \\ith fine and clearly seen hairs ; rostrum pale 

 with its apex brownish." (Montandon.)

Head, antenna?, prouotum, scutellum, and body beneath black; 

 apex of third joint and the whole of fourth joint of anteunte, 

 apical margin of head, apex of scutellum, I'ostrum and legs,

 greyish ; antennas finely pilose, second joint slightly longer than 

 fourth, each distiuctly longer than third ; head \y\\.\\ the anterior

 pronotum coarsely punctate, with somewhat erect pale hairs, and 

 with a transverse impression on anterior area ; scutellum coarsely

Apparently allied to G. maindroni, Montand., colour of antennae 

 and pronotum and markings of corium different.
