g. n. {ty2y. misolampoides, Lac), 



It is impossible to allow this curious species to remain in 

 Euplumistes, with which it has only an external resemblance. 

 The eyes are rather coarsely granixlated ; the clypeus emarginate ; 

 thorax hardly transverse, sides slightly rounded, with a basal line 

 of deep punctures ; elytra smooth, not margined at the base ; 

 metasternum with no coxal line, prosternum not keeled.
