 head and prothorax with erect hairs, and on the elytra with short 

 adpressed pubescence; brassy-black, the antennal joints 1-4, the 

 basal, apical, and lateral margins (except towards the anterior

 the elytra with a sharply defined, curved, transverse, ante-median 

 fascia (not reaching the suture, but extending to the outer margin); 

 the head and prothorax closely, conspicuously, the elytra coarsely, 

 rugosely punctured. Head much narrower than the prothorax; 

 antennae short, joints 8-10 transverse. Prothorax nearly as long 

 as broad, very convex, narrowed towards the base and apex. Elytra

Two $$, recently sent with a $ of P. translucidus from

 last-named insect; the head and prothorax more finely 

 pimctured, the latter shorter and more convex ; the elytra 

 not so long, more closely, rugosely punctured, and with 

 a sharply defined, non- evanescent flavous fascia.

(J. Elongate, narrow, depressed, slightly widened posteriorly, 

 shining, sparsely clothed with pallid pubescence intermixed with long, 

 erect, blackish, bristly hairs ; black, the labrum, oral organs, basal 

 joints of the antennae, basal margin of the prothorax, tip of the 

 abdomen, tarsi, and tibiae in part, testaceous, the elytra with a 

 common, transverse fascia below the base (interrupted at the suture) 

 and a transverse spot on the disc of each towards the apex, flavous ; 

 the head and prothorax sparsely, rather strongly punctured, the 

 elytra with scattered, intermixed coarse and fine punctures, the 

 latter becoming crowded on the pallid markings. Head rather long, 

 nearly as wide as the prothorax, canaliculate on the vertex, the
