distinct joints, rostrum elongate and more or less cylindric, eyes 

 strongly granulate, femora unarmed, front tibia? normally 

 mucronate, third joint of tarsi bilobed, fourth joint of tarsi well 

 exserted and having divaricate claws, prothorax without ocular 

 I<jbes, the apical ventral segment elongate (not shorter than the 

 second segment), male with a distinct pygidium. 



Mr. Pascoe says that the principal characters of Eniopea are 

 the distinctly (almost loosely) articulated antenna! club and the 

 exceptional structure of the apical segment in one sex. The 

 abdominal characters in the following species are quite as in 

 A. amoena ; but the antennal club, though exceptionally elongate, 

 and very distinctly articulate in them all, is not quite so remark- 

 able as in the typical species. 



E. posticalis, sp. nov. Oblonga ; ferruginea, squamis ferrugineis 

 ochraceis albidisque variegata, antennis (scapo excepto) 

 obscurioribus ; rostro quam prothorax vix longiori ; funiculi 

 articulo basali quam 2"'' sat (sed minus quam duplo) longiori; 

 prothorace quam longiori vix latiori, ochraceo-trivittato, 

 lateribus modice rotundatis ; elytris punctulato-striatis. 

 Long, (rostr. inch). If 1. ; lat., \ 1. (vix). 



Differs from E. amcena, inter alia, hy the slightly shorter and 

 slightly more compactly articulated club of its antenme, by the 

 comparatively longer second joint of the funicle, and by the 

 different pattern and colour of the scales on the upper surface. 

 Taking the ferruginous scales as the ground-colour, the rostrum 

 is seen to be sprinkled with whitish scales, and the prothorax to 

 bear three vittae formed of ochreous scales (the external vittae 

 marked w^ith white), while the elytra are marked chiefly with 

 whitish scales, which are scattered about the base, and form a 

 V-shaped mark with its extremities on the shoulders, and its 

 apex about the middle of the suture, as well as a very conspicuous 

 transversely oval spot on the suture C(jnsiderably behind the 

 middle (in front of and behind which the ground-colour is darker 

 than on the rest of the surface). The colours and pattern are a 

 good deal like those of some species of Emjjlesis, but the struc- 

 tural characters are very different from those of that genus.
