ff. Cheeks, lower part of the lateral lobes of the pronotum 



testaceous, the legs greenish olive. Abdomen not 



maculate with black, but with the sides of segments 



1-6 largely bright blood-red.. . .sanguineus sp. nov. 



Head of moderate size, about as wide as the anterior edge of the 

 pronotum, the front moderately oblique, the occiput rather short, and 

 strong!}' rounded; vertex strongly depressed, narrower than the diame- 

 ter of the basal antennal joint, rather deeply and linearly sulcate, the 

 sulcation becoming more profound and much deeper anteriorly upon 

 the fastigium of the vertex; the latter greatly depressed and of 

 moderate size, a little wider than long, and with heavy lateral walls; 

 frontal costa rather prominent, wide, continuous to the clypeus, and 

 broadly sulcate throughout; antennae filiform, greenish-yellow, about 

 reaching the apex of the first abdominal segment. Pronotum gently 

 widening behind, about as long as its greatest width, the surface 

 punctulate, on the hind lobe more densely so; transverse sulci pro- 

 found; the anterior and posterior margins of the disc a little roundly 

 emarginate. Tegmina small, lateral, not quite reaching the hind 

 margin of the first abdominal segment, about three times as long as 

 their greatest width, the disc provided with three rather heavy longi- 

 tudinal veins. Legs robust, the hind femora extending beyond the 

 tip of the abdomen of the male by the length of the genicular portion; 

 hind tibiae strongly hirsute, eight-spined externally and nine-spined 

 internally. Tip of the abdomen scarcely enlarged, the last ventral 

 segment short, smooth, the ai)ical margin squarely truncate; supra- 

 anal plate rather large, a fourth longer than its basal width, evenly, 

 but not rapidly, narrowing towards its apex, the lateral edges gently 

 raised and giving the plate a hollowed appearance, the apex suddenly, 

 but obliquely, narrowed, and ending in an acute angle; the basal half, 

 or a little more, provided with a deep, acute, and heavily bounded 

 V-shaped sulcus in or above which are two long pointed finger-like 

 projections from the hind margin of the preceding segment; cerci
