thickly marked with large punctures, leaving no smooth dorsal 
line ; brown, sides each with a broad ashy-brown vitta. Llytra

The characters of this genus are well defined by Mr. Pascoe, 
in the Journal of Entomology as above referred to. Its position 
is not so well ascertained. The form of the tarsal claws (widely 
divergent, with a broad, acute tooth at the base) points to an 
affinity with the Callianze ; and as I think this feature outweighs 
in importance the dissimilarity of general form and facies, I have 
placed the genus in the Calliane group, rather than amongst the 
Pogonocherine, with which it agrees in some points. The body 
is elongate-oblong, narrowed behind, depressed above, and beset 
with short bristles. The head is short, the crown, in profile, not 
forming an angle with the forehead, and the face very little pro- 
longed and narrowed below the eyes, which latter are large and 
convex. The thorax has a distinct acute tubercle on each side 
in the middle. The elytra are singly rounded at the apex. The
