The ¢ I believe is undescribed. It is exceedingly like 
rhopalocerus, but differs from it (as does its 2) in being 
considerably more strongly and deeply punctured and in 
having all the hind tarsi conspicuously annulated at 
their apices with black. (In rhopalocerus there is no black 
on any of them except the claw-joint !) 
Mr. Saunders in his MS. alludes to these specimens, and 
also that which I call rhopalocerus, as “rufinodis?”. But I 
feel sure they are to be separated and named as above 
(cf. Handlirsch’s Supplement to his Monograph). 
hujfinodis is an astern form, and not (as yet) known 
except from the Araxes-valley in Armenia.

I found this little-known species quite abundant in both 
sexes, always on Merula, at Hammam-bou-hadjar (Province 
of Oran) in April 1910.
