those organs being truncate at the apex, and having a short sharp 
piece projecting from the external angle of the truncation ; nor 
does the labrum quite agree with the diagnosis which merely 
characterises it as ‘broad, rounded externally,” whereas in the 
species before me it is narrowed from base to apex, with the sides 
little or not rounded, the surface set with numerous long fulvous 
hairs, and the apex deeply impressed above so as to give an 
emarginate appearance. These discrepancies do not seem suffi- 
cient to justify the creation of a new genus. 
T. labralis, sp. nov. Oblonga; sub parallela; sub depressa ; 
corpore subtus (meso- et meta-sternis nigris exceptis) antennis 
pedibusque obscure rufis nitidis, corpore supra subopaco 
pilis brevissimis fulvis sat dense vestito, lateribus breviter 
confertim fimbriatis; capite prothoraceque nigris crebre 
subtilius profunde punctulatis; hoc transversim quadrato 
utrinque in disco vix manifeste impresso, linea media vix 
notata, lateribus fere rectis, angulis sat rectis; elytris rufo- 
brunneis confertim subtiliter punctulatis, sculptura apicem 
versus vix obsoletescenti; corpore subtus subtilissime spar- 
sissime, sternis ad latera multo magis fortiter subrugulose, 
punctulatis. Long., 14—24$1.; lat., $4 1. 
The elytra are (very noticeably) still more closely and finely 
punctured than the prothorax; on the latter the punctures in 
some lights seem to run into fine wavy wrinkles placed more or 
less longitudinally. Apart from the structural characters men- 
tioned above, this species seems to differ from the two previously 
described by its elytral sculpture scarcely if at all growing feebler 
near the apex, also by its colour.
