510 Mr. F. P. Pascoe on some 
Volumnia morosa. 
V. oblonga, brunnea, griseo-varia, antennis nigris, scutello 
brunneo; elytris basi fere obsolete punctatis. Long. 3 lin. 
Hab. Angola. 
Oblong, brown varied with a greyish pubescence, sc. a stripe on 
each side of the prothorax continued obliquely on the elytra, but 
not quite meeting at the suture, a broad band in the middle 
narrowly prolonged down the suture and spreading out at the 
apex; head brown, except two reddish-grey stripes in front; pro- 
thorax slightly punctured; elytra on the basal half and towards 
the apex nearly obsoletely punctured, the band only showing a few 
small but distinct punctures, apex of each elytron rounded, but 
with a minute spine on the outer side; body beneath with a coarse 
reddish pubescence on each side, but with a naked spot on the 
abdominal segments. 
In V. Westermanni the very pale grey is differently dis- 
posed, the antenne are ringed with white, the three basal 
joints are conspicuously shorter, the base of the elytra is 
very coarsely punctured, &c. Mr. Gahan thinks that all 
other species hitherto referred to Volumnia belong to 
Glenea. Although Lacordaire places the first in his 
‘“‘tribu Phyteeciides,’ and the latter in his ‘“tribu 
Lamiides vrais,” it would be difficult to say where, taken 
as a whole, they differ. Glenea, however, has a different 
facies to Volumnia, and more slender legs and antenne. 
OcHR#ESIUS. 
Caput antice breve, quadratum: tuberes antennarum diver- 
gentes. Oculisupra distantes, tenuiter granulati. Antenne scapo 
crasso, subcylindrico, cicatrice obsoleta, articulo tertio quam scapo 
vix breviore, cxteris gradatim brevioribus. Prothorax breviusculus, 
eylindricus. Elytra elongata, prothorace basi multo latiora, ad 
apicem gradatim angustiora. Pedes breves; femora leviter in- 
crassata, mutica; tibie rect; tarsi latiusculi; unguiculi haud 
divergentes, fissiles. Sterna angusta. 
Mr. Bates has an undescribed species of A¥renica, 
which bears a slight resemblance to this fine species, 
but this has much shorter legs, the hind tibie not 
extending beyond the fourth abdominal segment, the 
tarsi broader, and the third joint strongly lobed.
