The head and pronotum of the male (now, for the first time, figured) are glossy black and thickly but 
finely punctured; the elytra are black but not glossy, and but slightly punctured. The small spots on the 
elytra form about five longitudinal irregular rows on each side of the suture; they are more irregularly dis- 
persed towards the lateral margins, where they occasionally form short transverse stripes. The abdominal 
segments are not longitudinally impressed along the middle of the ventral surface ; the body beneath is black, 
glossy, and very slightly punctured. 
One of the maxille of the male is represented in fig. 1 a, and the mentum in fig. 1 4.

The male of this beautiful species was first described and figured by myself in the Transactions of the 
Entomological Society of London, 1st Ser. vol. v. p. 20, pl. I, fig. 2, from an unique specimen in the Hopeian 
Collection. 
The female is now, for the first time, described and figured. It has the fore tibie armed externally with 
three acute teeth, and each of the four posterior tibiz is armed with a spine a little beyond the middle. The 
maxilla is terminated by an acute galea, strongly setose above, and the mando by a very sharp spine. (Fig. 6 a.)
