 at middle-line; elytra fully //^ longer than pronotum, longer than in elon - 

 ^atula , very finely end densely punctated, abdomen evenly broad, its first 

 three free dorsal segments densely and finely punctated, the fourth less 

 densely, the fifth with isolated punctation and longer than the fourth. 

 L. 3-4 mm. 



In the ^ the next-last sternite somewhat elongate and rounded off at 

 tip; in the Q the posterior margin of the sixth tergite more rounded than 

 in the 3^ . 



Among the deviating forms a very narrow variation is especially noted, 

 smaller and darker than the type, and with remarkably robust antennae, 

 which are strongly thickened distally. 



On swampy meadow and forest ground, distributed, but rather rare; the 

 narrow variation very rare (forest swamps at Hillerod, author). The spe- 

 cies is distributed in Middle ;!;urope, also found in Skaane, but not in 

 England.

X5uch like H. elon.^atula . and like this slender, elongate and feebly 



convex, but larger and more robust then even the largest forms of same;

 somewhat closer to lur idipennis .
