PACHYTERIA BATESI. 15 
brown along the middle, whereas moreover the anterior 
femora have a reddish brown stripe on their under surface 
near the base; the inner margin of the anterior tibiae is 
clothed with a luteous pubescence, which is also the case 
in Hagens. 
Head coarsely punctured on the vertex and behind the 
eyes, finely on the cheeks and base of mandibles, very 
densely on the face and inter-antennary ridge. The 
frontal groove is deep and extends from between the upper 
lobes of the eyes down to the base of the clypeus which 
is indicated by a well-defined transverse groove; the cly- 
peus itself is flat and provided at its base with a few indi- 
stinct transverse wrinkles and along its middle with an 
impressed line. The antennae are considerably more slender 
and elongate than in Hageni; the scape is short, rugose 
and provided with a smooth keel along the frontside; the 
3rd joint is nearly as long as the two following joints 
taken together, the 4th a little shorter than the 5th, this 
and the two following equal in size, the 8th—10th slightly 
decreasing, the apical one distinctly longer. 
Prothorax slightly longer than broad at the base, the 
sides provided with a small tubercle, the anterior and 
posterior margin strongly turned upwards; transversely 
wrinkled on the upper surface and sides; on the disk these 
wrinkles are irregularly confluent, so as to form small 
smooth spaces; the intervals are provided with large punc- 
tures. The scutellum is somewhat elongate triangular, with 
slightly convex sides, the tip is smooth. 
The elytra taper gradually towards the end, the apices 
are obliquely truncate with rounded angles; each elytron 
with two faint longitudinal lines on the yellow portion 
which is less strongly punctured as in Mageni; the green 
posterior portion finely and very densely punctured on the 
outer half, so as to make it here opaque, much more 
distantly punctured and shining along the suture; the 
opaque streak densely covered with a short black pu- 
bescence.
