280 Mr. F. P. Pascoe—Additions to the 
depressum. Mesosternum antice declivum. Corpus subcylindricum, 
pilosum. 
In colour and general appearance this genus resembles Phaula, 
Thom.; but the form of the head, the antenne, and the presence of 
setaceous hairs on every part except the eyes, will at once amply 
distinguish it. 
Elithiotes hirsuta. 
E. fulva, pube pallidiore tecta. 
Hab. Natal. 
Derm fulvous, shining, rather closely covered with a longish pubes- 
cence much paler than the derm, or approaching to greyish, with long, 
semierect hairs dispersed on every part, but more crowded on the 
antenn ; head and prothorax with numerous very coarse punctures ; 
elytra with the punctures more scattered and very shallow; posterior 
legs not nearly reaching to the end of the elytra; antenne above three- 
quarters as long as the body. Length 6 lines. 
HYAGnis. 
Caput antice subtransversum, infra verticem concavum, tuberibus anten- 
niferis elongatis, suberectis. Oculi parvi. Antenne attenuatie, corpore 
vix longiores, scapo brevi, cylindrico, articulo tertio duplo longiore, 
ceteris brevioribus, descrescentibus. Prothorax oblongus, cylindricus. 
Elytra elongata, apice integra. Pedes breves; tibie intermedieze leviter 
emarginate ; tarsorum articulo basali duobus sequentibus conjunctis 
breviore. Pro- et meso-sterna simplicia. Corpus angustum, haud 
pilosum. 
The unusual length of the antennary tubers is the most remarkable 
point connected with this genus, which, in habit, bears some resem- 
blance to certain narrow species of Rhopica. Like the former (Zl- 
thiotes), it belongs to the Apomecynine. 
Hyagnis fistularius. 
H. griseo-pubescens; elytris singulis post medium plaga magna pallide 
grisea. 
‘Hab. Natal. 
Derm pitchy, covered with a very short, greyish pubescence; head 
with a thick, rough, yellowish-grey pubescence, very concave between 
the tubers; eyes small and widely apart; prothorax coarsely punctured, 
the widest part a little behind the anterior border; scutellum rounded 
posteriorly ; elytra irregularly and coarsely punctured, on each elytron 
three or four elevated lines, one only well defined, and connected with 
the remainder before reaching the apex, behind the middle a condensed 
patch of a paler pubescence ; body beneath and legs greyish, pubescent ; 
posterior tarsi longer than their tibiz. Length 4 lines.
