ufeacli joint black, the metatavsus of the posterior legs uiuch loiiL;er 

 than the foHowing joints tugetlier. 



Hah. Algoa Bay (Dr. Bmuns). 



Of nearly similar shape and coloration to C. Jurmatitra, 

 Fairm., but the sculpture of the head quite diffei'ent, the 

 labrum testaceous, not black, the antennas differently 

 coloured as well as the scutellum, and tlie elytra more 

 distinctly punctured ; from G. flaveola, Gerst., the species 

 niay be at once distinguished by the black under-side. 



Candezea sctotdlata, sp. n. 



Under-side Ijlack, the basal joints of the antenn;e and the head and 

 thorax pale fulvous, inipunctate, scutellum black, elytra testaceous, 

 extremely minutely punctured, tarsi and the posterior femora more 

 or less black. 



Len.gth 7 millim. 



Again closely allied to C. Bnainsi and C. hR'matiira, but with the 

 frontal elevations scarcely raised and the clypeus very broad and 

 Hat, without carina, the antennie rather shorter, black, the lower three 

 or four joints Havous ; the thorax twice as broad as long, slightly 

 narrowed anteriorly, the sides nearly straight, the surface entirely 

 inipunctate, without depressions, scutellum black ; elytra somewhat 

 narrowed posteriorly, their punctuation scarcely perceptible, of paler 

 coloration than the thorax, legs fulvous, the posterior femora and the 

 tarsi Ijlack, as well as the under-side ; metatarsus very elongate. 



Hah. Algoa Bay, Cape (Dr. Brauns). 



Of the two specimens, kindly sent by Dr. Brauns, one 

 has the tarsi almost concolorous with the legs ; the 

 sculpture of the head and the black scutellum will 

 distinguish this species from its allies. 



Candc'Mi infttscata, sp. n. 



Bluish -black, the basal joints of the antenna- and the tliorax flavous, 

 the latter very iinely and obsoletely punctured, elytra bluish-black, 

 very closely and distinctly punctured in irregular rows, legs flavous, 

 the femora and the tarsi more or less fuscous. 



Length 3 millim. 



Head blackish, inipunctate, tlie frontal elevations strongly raised, 

 transverse, clypeus highly convex between the anteinnv, the latter of 

 about half the length of the body, black, the lower three or four joints 

 Havou.s, the third joint about one-half longer than the second ; thorax 

 about twice as broad as long, the sides very feebly rounded, the 

 anterior angles slightly obliquely thickened, the surface very
