76 CERAMBYCID.1:. 



A-^ertex faintly irapressed with a median line. Prothorax puuctured 



and pubescent like the head. 8cutellum rather short, rounded 



posteriorly, covered with yellowish-grey 



pubescence. Elytra slightly depressed 



near the suture, each with a rather 



broad shallow channel between the side 



and the centre of the disc in the middle 



t\\"o-tliirds of its length ; the surface 



strongly and very densely punctured all 



o\er, tlie punctures carrying each a small 



curved seta, those placed along the outer 



half of the disc have a slight tendency to 



be arranged in longitudinal rows and are 



y-, I- °';""J n 1 somewhat less cx'owded together than 



Caraphia crwrata,(jta.[\a.n. ,, ,, ^ i i ^i -t 



^ ft those near the suture and along the sides ; 



apex of each elytron truncate and slightly 



oblique, the angles not acute. Underside and legs very densely 



and more or less finely punctate. Antennae of the female do 



not quite reach to the apex of the elytra ; fourth and following 



joints canaliculate, the channels somewhat deeper and more distinct 



on the last three or four joints. Wings with narrow elliptical 



cell in course of first anal vein.

71. Caraphia minor, sp. n. 



Very like €. cribraia, but smaller and relatively somewhat 

 narrower, with the antennae longer, those of the female extending 

 by about the last two joints past the apex of the elytra, and 

 with the fifth and sixth joints longer in proportion to the fourth ; 

 tlie channels along the joints scarcely distinguishable except on 

 the last four or five ; the punctures of the elytra form definite 

 longitudinal rows, except near the suture and along the lower 

 part of each side, the punctures of alternate rows oblong, 

 carrying each a short, curved, pale tawny seta, the others more 

 quadrate, not setigerous ; the dorso-lateral depression on each 

 elytron very faint ; the wings without cell in the course of the 

 first anal vein. 



The male of this species, if I am right in considering as such 

 the smaller of the only two specimens I have seen, differs but 

 little from the female — the antenna are a little longer, extending 

 by nearly three joints past the apex of the elytra : the last 

 ventral segment is not shorter than the penultimate, whereas in 

 the male, as well as in the female of C. crihrata, it is appreciably 

 shorter.
