358 MISCELLANEA ENTOMOLOGICA, 



This insect is not unlike a pale variety of A. rugosus, it diflPers 

 in having the elytra less deeply punctured, with the apex of each 

 somewhat rounded. The thorax also is more transverse, and the 

 mesosternal process is less acute and more triangularly pointed. 



One of this species in the collection of the late Mr. W. S. 

 MacLeay, is labelled A. forosus Schonh. which it certainly is not 

 unless indeed the porosus of Schonherr is very different from that 

 of Boisduval and other authors, and from the inustus of Kirby. 



Anoplognathus rubiginosus. 

 Long. 10 lin. 



Breviter ovatus convexus, capite thorace scutelloque seneo-rufis 

 subviridibus nitidissimis leviter punctulatis, maris clypeo late 

 truncato et cum lateribus reflexo, elytris purpureo-rufis 

 dense subseriatim punctatis, pedibus rufis subpurpureis 

 tarsis piceis, corpore subtus nigro nitido flavo-piloso, mesos- 

 terno acute producto, pygidio magno punctato triaugulari 

 viridi-nigro hirto. 

 This very distinct species bears no resemblance to any other 

 I know. 



The short oval convex form, square clypeus, and large hairy 

 pygidium will serve at once to distinguish it. 



Anoplognathus Odewahnii. 

 Long. 14 lin. 



Testaceo-aeneus subviridis nitidus, capite dense punctulato maris 

 clypeo longo reflexo antice dilatato apice rotundato, thorace 

 leviter punctulato medio subtiliter canaliculato ad latera 

 subangulariter rotundato, elytris pallidioribus obsolete 

 striatis dense leviter punctatis ad suturam brunneis apice 

 subrotundatis minime emai'ginatis angulo suturali rotundato, 

 pedibus rufis tarsis piceis, corpore subtus viridi piloso, 

 mesosterno sublonge producto subacute piloso, pygidio rufo 

 acuducto pubescente. 

 The above description is taken from a male, what I believe to 

 be the female is a very different looking insect. It is broad flat
