antenne in the ¢, those organs a little stouter and not 
longer than in the ? of that species. The stouter antenne, 
black femora, and very sparsely punctured elytra distinguish 
A. rufotibialis from A. dilaticollis. 
6. Attalus dilaticollis, sp. n. 
@. Rather short, much widened posteriorly, shining, 
clothed with fine cinereous pubescence intermixed with long 
bristly hairs; black, the basal six joints of the antenne in 
evreat part, the prothorax, and legs rufo-testaceous, the elytra 
with a bluish lustre; the elytra closely, finely, the head and 
prothorax very sparsely and obsoletely, punctate. Head 
rather small, bi-impressed in front; antennze slender, serrate 
from joint 4 onward. Prothorax strongly transverse, 
arcuately dilated at the sides, narrowed posteriorly. Elytra 
at the base scarcely as wide as the prothorax, comparatively 
short, rapidly widening to near the apex, deeply excavate on 
the dise below the base. 
Length 24 mm.

One specimen. Not unlike the European d. dalmatinus, 
Er., but smaller and less elongate ; the antennal joints 4-10 
triangular, the prothorax relatively more dilated at the sides, 
the elytra shorter, excavate below the base, and much more 
finely punctured, the legs rufo-testaceous. 
7. Attalus testacetpes, sp. nu. 
&. Moderately elongate, shining, clothed with fine 
cinereous pubescence intermixed with erect, dark, bristly 
hairs ; black, the antennal joints 1-4 in part, the prothorax 
(an infuseate median vitta, extending from apex to near the 
base, excepted), and legs testaceous, the elytra nigro- 
ceruleous; the head and prothorax obsoletely, the elytra 
densely, finely punctate. Head narrower than the prothorax, 
the eyes somewhat prominent ; antenne moderately long, 
rather slender, serrate from joint 5 onward. Prothorax 
transverse, convex, narrowly margined, rounded at the sides. 
Elytra at the base about as wide as the prothorax, widening 
to near the apex, depressed along the suture below the base. 
Legs slender ; anterior tarsal joint 2 raised at the apex abeve 
the base of 3. 
Length 2 mm.
