Three males and two females. Near J. arabica, but. with 
the ¢-antennz dilated as in a Lycid, the elytra wholly nigro- 
cyaneous or black. One of the females, that from El Kubar, 
somewhat discoloured, has the head almost entirely black, 
the legs partly infuscate, and the elytra black. ‘The narrow, 
elongate head, broad antenne, shorter pubescence, differently 
coloured body, &c., separate J. /aticornis from the Abyssinian 
I. fulvicollis, Reiche. The stout, abruptly bent median 
lobe, as seen from above, has the long apical portion broadly 
sagittiform.

Numerous specimens from the above-mentioned localities
