  Descriptions 
  of 
  

  

  larger 
  and 
  more 
  distinct 
  than 
  usual. 
  Anterior 
  coxae 
  separated 
  to 
  

   continue 
  the 
  rostral 
  groove, 
  which 
  is 
  moderately 
  deep 
  and 
  sharply 
  

   margined 
  on 
  the 
  under 
  side 
  of 
  the 
  prothorax, 
  but 
  is 
  not 
  continued 
  

   beyond. 
  Terminal 
  segment 
  of 
  the 
  abdomen 
  with 
  a 
  transverse 
  

   fovea, 
  — 
  perhaps 
  a 
  sexual 
  character. 
  Femora 
  bidentate 
  beneath, 
  

   a 
  small 
  tooth 
  in 
  front 
  of 
  a 
  very 
  large 
  one. 
  

  

  Hybophorus 
  ru/otuberosus. 
  

  

  Sub-rhomboideus, 
  ater, 
  parum 
  nitidus, 
  pedibus 
  nigro-piceis, 
  

   antennis 
  piceo-rufis 
  ; 
  rostro 
  leviter 
  carinato, 
  basi 
  punctato- 
  

   subsulcato, 
  apice 
  subtilissime 
  punctulato 
  ; 
  capite 
  punctate 
  

   thorace 
  antice 
  valde 
  constricto, 
  supra 
  in 
  medio 
  sub-elevato, 
  

   et 
  obtuse 
  carinato, 
  lateribus 
  ante 
  medium 
  rotundato, 
  postice 
  

   recto; 
  ante 
  apicem 
  punctis 
  magnis 
  nonnullis 
  transversim 
  dis- 
  

   positis, 
  lateribus 
  profunde 
  et 
  sub-remote 
  punctatis 
  ; 
  elytris 
  

   piceo-nigris, 
  supra 
  valde 
  inaequalibus, 
  tuberibus 
  tubercu- 
  

   lisque

  obsitis, 
  interstitiis

  The 
  keel 
  on 
  the 
  thorax 
  is 
  considerably 
  elevated 
  but 
  not 
  sharp, 
  

   is 
  most 
  raised 
  towards 
  the 
  fore 
  part, 
  and 
  does 
  not 
  extend 
  quite 
  to 
  

   the 
  base 
  ; 
  in 
  the 
  constricted 
  portion 
  of 
  the 
  thorax 
  in 
  front 
  are 
  

   seen, 
  on 
  each 
  side 
  of 
  the 
  keel, 
  a 
  row 
  of 
  about 
  six 
  or 
  seven 
  large 
  

   oblong 
  punctures 
  ; 
  on 
  the 
  disc 
  are 
  a 
  few 
  rather 
  obscure 
  punctures, 
  

   and 
  towards 
  the 
  sides 
  are 
  a 
  few 
  irregularly 
  disposed 
  large 
  punc- 
  

   tures 
  ; 
  on 
  the 
  sides 
  the 
  large 
  punctures 
  are 
  rather 
  numerous; 
  the 
  

   upper 
  surface 
  of 
  the 
  thorax, 
  excepting 
  in 
  the 
  parts 
  alluded 
  to, 
  is 
  

   smooth 
  and 
  rather 
  dull. 
  The 
  tubercles 
  on 
  the 
  elytra 
  vary 
  much 
  

   in 
  size 
  and 
  form 
  ; 
  the 
  most 
  conspicuous 
  are 
  — 
  a 
  large 
  tubercle 
  at 
  

   the 
  shoulder, 
  which 
  is 
  of 
  a 
  three-sided 
  pyramidal 
  form 
  — 
  it 
  is 
  black, 
  

   with 
  the 
  angles 
  dull 
  red; 
  a 
  large 
  tubercle 
  about 
  midway 
  between 
  

   the 
  base 
  and 
  apex 
  of 
  each 
  elytron, 
  and 
  near 
  the 
  suture, 
  oblong 
  and 
  

   rounded, 
  excepting 
  on 
  the 
  inner 
  side, 
  where 
  there 
  is 
  a 
  depression 
  

   containing 
  one 
  of 
  the 
  little 
  glossy 
  black 
  granules 
  wiiich 
  are 
  rather 
  

   thickly 
  dispersed 
  in 
  all 
  the 
  cavities 
  between 
  the 
  tubercles 
  and 
  

   rugosities 
  of 
  the 
  elytra 
  ; 
  behind 
  the 
  humeral 
  tubercle 
  is 
  another 
  

   tubercle, 
  which 
  is 
  tolerably 
  large; 
  a 
  fourth 
  tubercle 
  is 
  situated 
  in 
  

   front 
  of 
  the 
  great 
  mesial 
  one, 
  and 
  a 
  fifth 
  between 
  this 
  and 
  the 
  

   humeral 
  hump 
  ; 
  besides 
  which 
  are 
  two 
  sub-apical 
  tubercles, 
  one 
  

   apical 
  — 
  and 
  several 
  others 
  on 
  the 
  lateral 
  portions 
  of 
  the 
  elytra,
