 them evenly punctured all over.

This is easily recognized not only by the uniform fine 

 puncturation of the elytra, but by its rather peculiar 

 colouring, the head, prothorax, legs and lower surface 

 being bright orange-testaceous, while the elytra are almost 

 of the same colour in the middle of the back, but change 

 imperceptibly to a smoky black at the margins. 



Coelodes pundipennis, sp. n. 



Laete testaceus, prothorace interdum paulo dihitiore, raodice 

 elongatus : capite rugosulo, postice medio laevi ; prothorace im- 

 punctato, lateribus leviter arcuatis ; el3'tris undique fortiter et 

 regulariter seriato-punctatis, stria suturali profunda punctata : 



(J , capitis vertice leviter transverse carinato ; prothoi'ace antice 

 sat late impresso, marginis antici medio subacuminato.

This is more brightly coloured than C. castaneus, 

 Westw., and the elytra are very strongly and uniformly 

 punctured, whereas in Westwood's species they are very 

 feebly and irregularly punctured.
