at the base, much enlarged posteriorly, with four scarcely 

 noticeable raised lines; the surface woolly, extremely 

 finely punctured.

Genus 43. Dexoris, gen. n. 



Head nearly as in the preceding. Antennas woolly, 

 thickest at the base, gradually tapering to the apex. 

 Thorax trapezoidal, with a carina on each side, extending 

 from the anterior angle to the middle of the posterior 

 margin where the two carina nearly meet. Elytra flat, 

 pubescent, parallel, with no costaj; the surface thickly 

 studded with minute obtuse tvxbercles.

Head rather prominent. Antenna3 rather short, simple, 

 the 2nd and 3rd joints small, subequal. Thorax with a

Macrolycus Boivringii, sp. n. 



Niger, opacus ; thorace coccineo, lateribus reflexis, 

 angulis posticis acutis ; scutello nigro ; elytris basi thorace 

 haud latioribus, postice gradatim ampliatis, coccineis, 

 quadricostatis, costis parum elevatis, interstitiis subtiliter

Antennae | the length of the elytra, compressed, rather 

 broad, strongly dentate. Thorax a little broader than 

 long, in the middle in front rather angular, constricted a 

 little behind the middle, the posterior angles diverging 

 and acute ; the anterior and lateral margins broadly re- 

 flexed, with a short mesial carina in front, and a carina on 

 each side at the constriction ; disk with a longitudinal 

 mesial impression. Scutellum narrowed towards the apex. 

 Elytra long, much enlarged posteriorly, each with four
