tinctus ; thoracis lateribus, elytrorum margiiiibus, apice fasciaqiie 

 mediana fuscis. c? . 

 Long, (rostr. exel.) 21 millim. (10 liu.) ; lat. elytr. 9 millim. 



Very near P. mveus, but quite differently coloured. The 

 general colour is pale sandy yellow, which is darker in some 

 places. Tlie sides of the thorax are dark fuscous, and this 

 colour is carried along the margin of the elytra and entirely 

 covers the a})ex ; the dark colour is more extended on to the 

 elytra about the middle, and there is a V-shaped fuscous 

 mark on the back of the elytra ; there are also a few fuscous 

 spots near the scutellum. The rostrum is short and very 

 thick at the base. The ocellated punctures on the thorax are 

 irregularly placed and are not very numerous. The pygi- 

 dium is strongly punctured, and has a strong ridge in the 

 middle which reaches nearly to the base. The vertical pro- 

 cess behind the anterior coxee is elongate and acuminate. The 

 punctures along the upper margin and at the posterior part of 

 the metathoracic parapleura are very strong.

 Long. Sg lin. 



Thorax with the lateral tubercle rather prominent, as in 0. 

 ChevroJatii. The anterior discoidal impression of the thorax 

 very deep and bounded on each side by a ^vell-marked ridge ; 

 posterior depression very deep. Elytra paler than the thorax, 

 very delicately and not very closely punctured ; the apex and 

 the suture black, the black becoming very narrow at the 

 scutellum. Each elytron lias three pale yellow lines. Meta- 

 sternum and abdomen black. 



In one example the antennee are black, with the base of the 

 first and the middle of the second joints red. The black on 

 the elytra is also interrupted at the apex, and is confined to the 

 suture and a spot on the outer apical angle.
