head is vertical and closely punctured. The thorax is also closely 

 punctured, with a faint median line ; it is broad and rounded at. 

 the anterior angles, where the reflexed margin is very wide, 

 and there are two large depressions at the base nearer the posterior 

 angle than the centre. The elytra are somewhat narrower than 

 the thorax at its widest part, and are marked with nearly obsolete 

 ridges and coarse punctures. 



This species evidently belongs to the same group as A. 

 Jpsuicles, Westw.

 Glossy black, with the apex of the elytra red. The whole 

 upper surface is covered with fine punctures and short erect light

 with the margin wide, but not much reflexed.

 Very nitid, black, with a tinge of dark red on the thorax, and

 thorax is very narrowly margined and nearly cylindrical.

 In colouring, this species exactly resembles A. Australis, it 

 differs from it in having the thorax more globular, the median line 

 scarcely marked, and the posterior lobe much shorter. The elytra 

 are striated, with the stride full of large punctures.
