Sand Hills at Kobe. Dark var. also at lliogo. 
Variable as to colour ; the var. with concolorous dark- 
pitchv elytra seems widely distinct from the type, which is 
of a tawny-brown hue, with a pale border to the elytra 
occupying interstices 7 — 8 ; but intermediate varieties 
occur. The paler (and more abundant) form is very much 
broader than the European H. fulvus. The thorax is 
broader (twice as broad as long), and has wider explanated 
margins. The lateral curvature of the thorax is similar 
to that of B. fiilous, but the anterior angles ai-e more 
produced. The anterior tibia? are produced at their ex- 
terior apical angle into a long pointed lobe, and the outer 
edge is much fattened and serrated. The sides of the 
breast and abdomen are thickly and coarsely punctured.

In the form of the thorax and elytra similar to A. Qucn- 
fselii; but eyes much more ]-)rominent. The thorax is a 
little narrower than the middle of the elytra, owing chiefly 
to the latter being gradually dilated to the middle, whence 
they arc narrowed again to the apex. The base of the 
thoi-ax is coarsely and thickly punctured, and somewhat
