Antcnnre 1'^ lin. long, distinctly tliickcncd to^vards the 

 extremity, pitchy, with the two basal joints yellow but 

 infuscatc in front; 3rd joint one and a half times as long 

 as 2nd. Palj)! pitchy yellow. Head coarsely punctured 

 and with a pale pubescence, a small space in front of the 

 vertex smooth and shining. Thorax 1 line (scarcely) in 

 length, I lin. broad, coarsely and very densely punctured, 

 with a space in front on each side smooth and shining ; the 

 hind margin also free from the dense ])unctuation, the 

 surface bearing an ashy pubescence. Elytra 1^ lin. long, 

 coarsely punctured, bearing a pale pubescence; the hind 

 margin and the suture except at the base free. Hind 

 body black, the segments punctured and pubescent except 

 at their hind margins, the apex reddish. Legs, including 

 the coxffi, reddish; the tibiae infuscate. 



Ega ; a single female individual. 



This species is again very closely allied to T. cinerea, 

 but besides being considerably smaller, it has the legs 

 shorter and paler, and the punctuation of the thorax antl 

 elytra a little coarser. The individual described is much 

 rubbed, but I do not think the pubescence would diftbr 

 materially in fresh individuals from that of T. cinerea.
