 The upper surface is black ; the antennee are pitchy, as are 

 also the sides of the thoi-ax, which are armed with two setce on

 This minute species is of a somewhat shining black colour, 

 the thorax is punctured and has a rather wrinkled appearance ; 

 the medial line is very distinctly marked. The elytra are slightly 

 striated and covered with iine punctures, each furnished with 

 a short decumbent hair of a lightish, hue. They have one 

 reddish spot near the base of each elytron, and another common 

 to both, near their apex. The antennas, palpi, and legs are 

 yellow.

 The upper surface is of a pitchy brown, the under of a lighter 

 colour. The head is wrinkled, and intricately sculptured in 

 front. The elytra are deeply channelled and slightly punctui'ed, 

 with a curved truncature at the apex. 



I have not dissected either this or the following species, but 

 I h^TP nn. doubt that I am rio'ht in referring them to this srenus.
