This new genus, which 1 have iiiuch pleasure to dedicate to Mr. W. 

 W. Froggatt. is allied to Moi/antliia Lep. et Sekv., Stâl, l)ut differing by 

 the structure of the head, the antenœ subcontiguons at the ])ase and also 

 by the lateral margins of the pronotum not dilated and reflexed, but onh'^ 

 carinated. It has a superficial resemblance to Leptopharsa Stal.
