So closely allied to A. kraatzi, Bernh., thai an enumeration of 

 the points of difference should suffice. It is a little more elongate 

 and the antennae are slightly longer than in A. kraatzi, the elytra 

 are unicolorous, parallel, more depressed on the disc and more 

 finely punctured, the abdomen is likewise unicolorous and more 

 finely punctured. The thorax has 4 and the elytra 7 or 8 strong 

 setae on either side as in A. kraatzi, and the anal styles are 

 similarly formed.

20. Stilicopsis obliqua, n. sp. 



Rufous, elytra testaceous, with an oblique pitchy-brown macula 

 extending from the lateral margins to near the apex of the suture; 

 abdomen pitchy-testaceous, the fourth (visible) segment black; 

 antennae, legs and palpi pale testaceous. Length 4 - 5 mm. 



Var. 1. Elytral markings almost obsolete, abdomen concolorous. 



Var. 2. Uniformly reddish-testaceous. 



Larger and much more robust than 8. trinotata, Kr. Differs 

 from 8. umbilicata, Fauv., by the longer and more slender antennae, 

 longer and narrower thorax, shorter and broader elytra, and the 

 abdomen more widened behind. Head large, suborbiculate, temples 

 continuously rounded with the base, eyes prominent, sculpture close, 

 umbilicate. Antennae elongate, the 2nd joint shorter than the 3rd, 

 4th to 7th joints all considerably longer than broad, 10th almost 

 square, 11th conical. Thorax a little longer than broad, narrower 

 than the head and the elytra, puncturation as on the head; sides 

 with four or five long black setae. Elytra in fully-coloured speci- 

 mens with a pitchy indeterminate macula extending from the middle 

 of the sides and becoming more or less evanescent towards the apex 

 of the suture; about as long as broad, convex, ample, rather coarsely 

 and closely punctured and pubescent ; sides with three or four long 

 black setae. Abdomen slightly contracted at the base, reddish, 

 fourth visible segment pitchy-black, apex testaceous, puncturation 

 moderately tine and close, pubescence yellow, lateral setae black. 



cj. Seventh ventral segment with a deep obtusely pointed exci- 

 sion, the sixth with a small obtuse excision.

21. Stilicopsis persimilis, n. sp.

 macula at the middle of the lateral borders; antennae, palpi ami 

 leg pale testaceous. Length 4 mm.
