ground west of Ribe (Outer Bjerrum 27. 5. 1857 Dr. F. Ii/lelnert), on the 



beach under seaweeds at Esbjerg (5. 1897 Jensen-Haarup and Konsv. L/b'ven- 



dal); Engtofte, Lolland (20. 6. 1876??. Schlick). 



2. A. depressum Jravh. 



(Jravh. Micr. 182; Muls. et Rey Bre'vlp. 1878, 17; iianglb. Kaf. 'Z. 

 II, 498). 



Much like the preceding species, but as a rule somewhat larger and 

 mainly deviating from this in color. 



Black, head and pronotum especially strongly glistening; elytra red, 

 at base narrowly, or till above middle extending black, rarely with only 

 the hind corners red (var. ephippium Er.) or entirely red (var. rubrlpen - 

 ne Reitt.); the apex of the abdominal tip brownish; antennae and mouth- 

 parts rust-redj legs yellowish red, sometimes darker.

Pronotal punctate rows very fine, more irregularly double than in 

 humile , and are posteriorly often placed in feebly suggested longitudi- 

 nal impressions; elytra are most often distinctly a little longer than 

 pronotum, with a little sparser, and oftenest more distinctly row-form- 

 ed punctation than in the preceding species; sex characters on the abdo- 

 minal fifth and sixth ventral joint are in the d formed like those of 

 the preceding species. L. 8 ma. 



A single specimen from Falster (12. 8. 1902 Esb. Petersen) in my col- 

 lection with extensively black elytra apparently belong to this species, 

 known from South and Middle Europe.
