Black. Mandibles, bead and prothorax somewhat shining; elytra 
dull, the left mandible with four teeth, the tips gradually incurved 
and pointed, the right mandible with three teeth only. Prothorax 
with two slight foveze near the front margin and a slighter one 
behind on the median line, wider than the elytra, the sides ex- 
tending obliquely outwards to the posterior angle, which is very 
prominent, the whole of the anterior margin and the middle of the 
posterior fringed with tawny golden hairs, extending in the latter 
over nearly the whole of the scutellum, the surface minutely 
punctured, more or less covered with short grey hairs. Elytra 
dull, minutely punctured, and also covered with short grey hairs ; 
tip of elytra depressed, humeral angles prominent, and armed 
with an obtuse spine. Tibiz with longitudinal lines of points, 
the anterior short, and armed with three teeth externally, and 
minutely serrulated towards the apex; the tarsi clothed beneath 
with golden hairs; the under-side of the prothorax fringed in front 
and behind with short, yellowish-rufous hairs. 
In the great width and dilatation of the posterior angles of the 
prothorax, this insect approaches somewhat to the genus Chiasog- 
nathus. I am indebted to A, Fry, Esq., the possessor of a fine 
collection of Brazilian Coleoptera, for being enabled to give the 
description of it, and through his kindness it now forms part 
of my own collection,
