Ilah. — Iliogo, Japan ; a single specimen. 
Very closely allied to L. Jiavipcs, but at once to be 
known from that species by the shorter subcylindrical 
and rugose thorax. Forehead smooth, not longitudinally 
sulcate, being only slightly impressed Avith a small fovea ; 
surfiice (under a lens) very finely and transversely 
strigosc ; in the middle between the upper portion of the 
eyes is an ill-defined fulvous spot ; antenna; black, the 
second joint obscure piceous. Thorax subcylindrical, con- 
stricted at the middle, and armed, in addition to the usual 
tuberosity in front, with a second, small, close to the basal 
margin ; upper sm-face finely but distinctly rugose, im- 
jn-essed a short distance in front of the base with a 
transverse groove, which curves upwards on either side 
to join the lateral constriction. Elytra sculptured in a 
similar manner to L. Jiavipcs.
