punctatis; corpore subtus plel'umque rufo; pedibus antennisque 

 nigro-cyaneis, his clava distincte 4-articiilata. L. 16 mm. 



Head black strongly depressed in front, with large scattered 

 piinctures ; prothorax red, very narrowly darker at base, almost 

 as long as broad, convex, with the anterior angles rounded, and the 

 posterior angles produced, dise obsoletely punctured; the sides are 

 rounded in front and almost straight towards base; at base tliere 

 is a strong dépression bounded on each side by a short stria ; elytra 

 cyaneous, considerably broader at base tlian base of elytra, with 

 wide robust rounded shoulders, sides gradually narrowed towards 

 apex : apices broad, rounded, truncate just before suture; rows of 

 punctures on elytra regular on dise but somewhat confused 

 towards sides and feebler at apex, interstices plainly punctured; 

 underside red, episterna and epimera of meso- and metathorax 

 cyaneous; legs and antennae cyaneous, the latter with a distinctly 

 marked 4-jointed club which is more elongate than in the type 

 species of the genus. 



Philippine Islands : one spécimen in the collection of the Royal 

 Belgian Muséum and another in Mr. Gorham's collection. 



I think it probable that this species may represent the type of a 

 new genus, as the club of the antennse is more elongate than in 

 P. Paivœ Woll. and P. metasternalis Crotch, and difFerently 

 shaped; a transition is however formed by P. collaris Crotch in 

 which the club has the joints less trans verse and less closely 

 pressed together than in thèse two species.

Head and thorax dark or pitchy red, elytra cyaneous; protho- 

 rax rather longer than broad, somewhat globose, finely and obso- 

 letely punctured, with a few scattered larger punctures, base 

 depressed and rather coarsely punctured just before margin ; 

 elytra with rows of rather strong punctures, which become much 

 feebler towards apex, apices truncate; antennae moderate, black 

 with pitchy base, third and fourth joints almost equal in length, 

 with a well marked 4-jointed club; underside of head and thorax 

 and anterior legs pitchy; rest of underside and intermediate and
