African Species of Hrotylide. 155 
Only a single male was found by each collector. Unlike 
the other species, this is uniformly rusty-brown instead of 
blood-red, and the club of the antenna alone is black. The 
pronotum is very smooth and shining, but the head and 
elytra are scarcely shining (in the male at least), their 
puncturation being less fine and scanty than usual. The 
antenne are very delicate and the club is rather elongate, 
with moderately broad but loosely articulated joints. 
EKuzestus angustus, sp. n. 
Rufo-piceus, antennis pedibusque pallidioribus; anguste ovatus, 
convexus, nitidus, corpore supra ubique eequaliter sat fortiter et 
crebre punctato; antennis indistincte 11-articulatis, clava solida, 
triangulari, apice late truncata. 
Long. 2°5 mm.; lat. max. 1 mm. 
Narat: Durban (F. Muir), Malvern (G. A. K. Marshall, 
Sept.); Ruopusta: Salisbury (G. A. K. Marshall, Dec.). 
Although closely related to E. parki, Woll., this is very 
distinctly different. It is of practically the same size and 
colour, but considerably more elongate and more strongly, 
closely and evenly punctured on the head, pronotum and 
elytra. The antenne have the same peculiar conformation, 
but are rather less highly modified, the eleven joints com- 
posing each being distinguishable, although the articulations 
are not all perfect. The basal joint is large, but rather less 
so than in the typical species ; the second smaller, but well 
marked ; the third elongate; the fourth to the sixth very 
small and imperfectly articulated ; the seventh to the ninth 
progressively widening, the ninth twice as wide as it is long 
and closely applied to the base of the club, which forms a 
flattened sphere, its broad terminal part plainly formed by 
the eleventh joint, which appears as though almost sunk 
into the tenth.
