Melolontha laticauda, n. sp. 

 M. umbraculatce (Burm.) affinis sed multo latins oblongo-ovata, omnino

Sze-chuen. 



Belongs to the same group of Melolontha as M. serrulata (Schonh.) and 

 M. umhraculata (Burm.), but the clypeus has the narrow semioval form of 

 the latter species, whilst the general form of the body is different from both, 

 being elongate-ovate, the sides of the elytra gently and tolerably evenly 

 rounded from base to apex. The colour is obscure pitchy-brown, the surface 

 opaque and densely clothed with foxy-reddish pubescence, which is a little 

 longer and erect on the head, thorax, and scutellum, and recumbent on the 

 elytra. The integument on the head, thorax, and scutellum is very densely 

 punctate, the interstices everywhere narrow and somewhat reticulated ; on 

 the elytra the sculpture is much finer, and consists of minute transverse 

 granular rugae ; the five longitudinal ribs on each elytron are very narrow 

 and but slightly elevated, the sutural (or 1st rib) being a little more 

 conspicuous. The under side is immaculate. The anterior tibiae are 

 tridentate. The examples appear to be all females, the seven-jointed club 

 being small, with the 1st joint only about half the length of the others.

Broadly ovate, apple-green, only slightly shining in consequence of the 

 uniform close and fine punctuation of the whole upper surface, the pygidium 

 and the under surface being brilliant metallic-green. The palpi, antennae, 

 and anterior coxae are red in part, with metallic-green reflections, and there 

 is a faint trace of a reddish stripe on each side of the pygidium near the
