232 Mr. J. L. Hancock’s Studies of the 
eyes; the frontal costa rather widely sulcate, evenly divergent 
forward to the median ocellus, little compresso-elevated between the 
antenne. Pronotum granulate, posteriorly lengthily subulate, 
extended beyond the hind femoral apices ; dorsum little ascendant 
near the anterior margin, between the shoulders elevated, compresso- 
cristate, the top of crest subdentate, before and behind the crest the 
median carina often little compresso-dentate ; median carina low 
forward just behind the anterior margin and posteriorly on the 
process ; humeral angles widely obtuse, the lateral carinz continuous 
forward on the shoulders ; the anterior prozonal carine parallel ; 
posterior angles of the lateral lobes subangulate, slightly reflexed, 
subrounded-truncate. Elytra elongate, apices narrowly rounded, 
externally punctate, fuscous with light apices ; wings fully explicate, 
barely extended beyond the pronotal apex; anterior and middle 
femora elongate, the carinw distinctly compressed, undulate, the 
superior carine of the middle femora produced in an apical spine ; 
posterior femora elongate, genicular spine acute, little produced ; the 
three pulvilli of the first tarsal articles equal in length. Length of 
the body entire, female, 16-2 mm.; pronotum 15 mm.,; posterior 
femora 5°9 mm. 
One example from Putlam, Ceylon, in the Oxford 
Museum.

Similar to cornutus, but of smaller stature, the male and female 
measuring as follows: entire length 16-165 mm.; pronotum 
14-15°4 mm.; posterior femora 6-7 mm. In the male the wings 
extend beyond the pronotal apex, and in this sex the pronotum 
between the elevated humeral angles is transversely convex and 
little tumose ; the median carina here being low, but in the female 
little compressed, otherwise similar to cornutus. 
Two examples from the same locality as the preceding.
