punctures on the sides of the abdominal segments very small and 
bearing a very minute squamulose hair, those on the coxe and 
metasternum bear each an appressed hair, fine and short; penulti- 
mate segment of abdomen wider than the preceding one, last segment 
swollen ; intermediate and posterior tarsi moderately long; upper 
tooth of the claws of these tarsi (the anterior ones are missing in 
‘my examples) much longer than the lower, and of equal size. 
Length 15 mm.; width 83 mm.

SCHIZONYCHA IMMIXTA, n. spec., 
Plate LI., fig. 67. 
Testaceous, with the elytra paler, but occasionally totally sub- 
ferruginous ; club of antenne sub-flavescent, as long as all the joints 
taken together ; clypeus truncate and plainly sinuate in front, clypeal 
carina arcuate, suture distinct, basal carina indistinct, and replaced 
by a transverse row of foveolate punctures, clypeus and frontal part 
with foveolate punctures separated by smooth intervals; prothorax 
slightly ampliated laterally at about the median part, and not much 
attenuated thence towards the sharp basal angle, covered with equi- 
distant round punctures, separated by somewhat narrow, very 
slightly raised, smooth walls, from the centre of the discoidal part 
there runs a narrow, smooth, longitudinal band reaching the base, 
and the transverse supra-basal folds have disappeared entirely, the 
outer margins show very little traces of serration ; scutellum with 
one lateral row of punctures; elytra very little ampliated laterally 
before the median part, covered with round punctures separated by 
smooth intervals; hairs most minute; upper half of the pygidium 
set with irregular deep punctures, lower half impunctate ; abdomen 
distinctly depressed in the middle, penultimate segment not broader 
than the one preceding, last segment narrow, transverse, the sides of 
the abdomen are deeply, closely, and somewhat broadly punctate, 
and the pectus is moderately densely pubescent ; tarsi long, upper 
tooth of anterior claws extremely small and at times indistinct, that 
of the intermediate and posterior ones much longer and more robust 
than the lower. Female unknown. 
Length 114-124 mm. ; width 64-74 mm. 
This species is easily recognised by the absence of the supra- 
basal raised folds of the prothorax, the great length of the club of 
the antenne, and the almost obliterated upper tooth of the anterior 
claws. The shape of the genital armature is also very charac- 
teristic, and unlike any other.
