Near £. albipennis, Germ. (which I have never been able to 
identify), and possibly a colour-var. of that species on the suppo- 
sition of a sight mistake in Germar’s description, according to 
which the sixth joint of the antenne is transverse and wider 
than the fifth, whereas in the examples before me that joint is not 
transverse, and not at all wider than the fifth (the seventh being 
the first wider joint). £. albipennis is also said to have its front 
femora ferruginous at the base, and no mention is made of the 
snowy-white sides of the prothorax. Among the somewhat 
numerous examples [ have seen of the species I am describing I 
have seen no ferruginous colouring on the femora, and very few 
specimens in which the lateral vittze of the prothorax are not 
well defined. Compared with #. Howitti, Baly, this species apart 
from colour, inter alia, has the prothorax not nearly so coarsely 
and rugulosely punctured, the apical five joints of the antenne 
much shorter, and the elytra a little less strongly produced behind 
into a tail.

£. simplex, sp. nov. Sat angusta; fere ut precedens colorata 
sed elytrorum apice summo haud nigro ; a preecedenti differt 
prothorace antice haud angustato multo magis crasse magis 
rugulose punctulato; elytris ad 2 ie multo minus 
acuminatis. Long., 24—31.; lat., 341 
Near #. Howitti, Baly, but at once disiine guishable by its elytra 
very much less drawn out at the apex and its antenne much 
shorter, with joints 7-10 transverse and much shorter, and its 
legs entirely black.
