42 Mr. F. P. Pascoe's Descriptions of New Genera 



median line with four or five small tubercles and several minute 

 granules on each ; elytra rather short, coarsely punctured, the 

 humeral angle produced, with a few granulations at its side, and 

 between it and the scutelluni two strong spines, the basal half and 

 apical third with a greyish pubescence, the intermediate portion 

 forming a sort of band ; beneath and two first tarsal joints varied 

 with grey. 



In this species the male has the little apical knob at the sixth 

 joint ; in G. reticulata and tessellata it is at the seventh ; in G. 

 corallina it is not present. 



Melon granuUcullls. 



M. piceus, griseo-pubescens ; prothorace lateribus minute spi- 

 nosis, antice utrinque granulatis, fusco-bivittato ; elytris fusco- 

 maculatis, apicem versus griseo-fasciatis.

This new genus, which differs from Monohammus in its clavate 

 femora, will be described in a future part.

C. griseo-brunneus ; capite prothoraceque obscure nigro-vitta- 

 tis; elytris singulis plagis iateralibus obliquis, albidis, irregu-

 with two oblique white patches on tlie outer margin irregularly
