Typus : Flavius granulipes Fallou. 



In Revue d'Ent. 1892, p. 263 I placed this insect in the genus 

 Diariptus Stâl, from which it ditïers, however, by the much 

 shorther antennœ, the basai joint of which is only half as long 

 again as the head, by the unarmed fore and middle femora, by the 

 lack of spines or teeth at the apicai angles of the abdominal 

 segments, and by the peculiar structure of the sixth maie abdo- 

 minal segment.
