Gen. XI, Anacamptorhina, Blanchard. 



A very rare genus, and so far as is yet known, confined 

 to New Gruinea. In the new species here described, 

 there occurs the sexual peculiarity, unsual in this family, 

 of the elytra of the female being distinctly punctate- 

 striate, while those of the male are quite smooth.

 In what appears to be the female, the clypeus is much 

 less broadly notched, and rather more punctured ; and 

 the anterior tibiae are slightly broader, and have the 

 teeth stronger.

 with a few scattered punctures at the sides ; elytra in-

 more distinctly punctured than in the male ; pygidium 

 broad, compressed, transversely rugose-striate ; beneath, 

 with a few coarse scattered punctures, the sides of the 

 abdominal segments with large confluent punctures in
