70 COLEOPTERA. 



very like 0. gJahrkulus, but can be at once distinguished 

 from that species (and indeed from all others of the genus) 

 by the serial disposition of deep punctures on the elytra. 



The head of the male h:is a transverse projecting ridge be- 

 tween the eyes, slightly hollowed on the upper side and with 

 a wide emargination in the middle, whereby two blunt horns 

 are formed, which curve a little upwards; the thorax is large, 

 curved outwards at the sides, shining, of an inflated appear- 

 ance, finely and rather thickly punctured, with the posterior 

 and lateral edges narrovrly margined ; the elytra are cylin- 

 drical, not so wide as the greatest breadth of the thorax, 

 clothed sparingly with very short and somewhat indistinct 

 ivdbescence, distinctly punctate-striate, the stris formed of 

 large and rather irregular points, and the interstices with 

 very minute punctures. 



It seems to vary somewhat in size, since the specimen 

 given to me by Mr. Montague is larger than any O. glabri- 

 cuhis I possess. 



Dr. Power is made (hy a printer's error) in the Zoologist to 

 say the elytra are 7wt pubescent, and that the elytra have an 

 angulose appearance, whatever that may be.

Dr. Power lias named this grand addition to our list of 

 Coleoptera after its captor, Charles Turner; a compliment 

 certainly well earned by the latter, wIjo undergoes more 

 lengthened hardships and privations, and exhibits more per- 

 sistent energy in the pursuit of rarities, than all the purchasers 

 of his good things are acquainted with, and who has now 

 crowned his long list of revivals, &c., by taking a species new 

 to science — a species, moj-eover, neither small nor common- 

 place in appearance, and in a well-worked group. He 

 informs me that he took the insect in question is some
