Longicornia Malay ana. 599 



vel aliquando paulo longiore. Prosternum parum , 

 angustum. Mesosternum latum, antice declive. 

 The differential characters of Glytus, as it is now limited, 

 are principally the globose prothorax, and the filiform or 

 sometimes slightly thickened outer joints of the antennae. 

 The type is Glytus arietis, Linn. The following species 

 shows no close affinity to any other known to me. 



Glytus solitarius. 



C. niger; prothorace obscure cinereo, fascia mediana 

 nigra; elytris singulis linea basali reduplicata, fas- 

 ciisque duabus flavescentibus. 



Sab. — Singapore. 



Black ; head rather small ; prothorax dull ashy, with a 

 black median band, curved behind and straight in front ; 

 scutellum semicircular, white ; elytra with a narrow 

 yellowish line, beginning beneath the scutellum, de- 

 scending to near the middle, then curving upwards 

 and terminating near the shoulder, a little before the 

 middle a narrow slightly arched band, and another 

 broader one midway between it and the apex, yellowish ; 

 body beneath ashy, the three last abdominal segments 

 darker; legs and antennae blackish, with an ashy pubes- 

 cence. 



Length 4^ lines. 



Clytanthus.

{nee Guerin) . 



Characteres ut in Glyto, sed prothorax oblongo-ovatus, 

 et articulus basalis tarsorum posticorum minus elon- 

 gatus. 



The differences between Glytus and Glytanthus are 

 scarcely definable, but in the former the prothorax is 

 more decidedly globular, and the posterior tarsi have 

 the basal joint three or nearly four times as long as the 

 two next together. Clytanthus is a very large genus, and 

 is found all over the world, except South America. The 

 type is the Mexican G. tricolor, but G. verbasci, Linn. {G. 

 ornatus, Fab.) may be taken as the representative of the 

 European species.
