This species is closely allied to S. zambesiana. The clypeal carina 
is triangular, while in S. zambesiana it is only very slightly arcuate, 
and the pectus is moderately hairy instead of being squamose ; the 
clasps of the genital organs are differently shaped (cf. fig. 38, 
plyxlnysand fis: Si, pl) xli): 
SCHIZONYCHA ELEGANS, Nl. spec. 
Rusty-red, with the elytra, abdomen, and club of antenne testa- 
ceous ; clypeus broadly truncate and deeply sinuate in the anterior 
part, clypeal carina arcuate, basal one sharp, clypeus deeply and 
closely punctured, the punctures asperous, frontal part with plainly 
scabrose punctures, each puncture bearing a small greyish-white 
hair similar to those on the prothorax and elytra; prothorax not 
narrowed laterally from the median part to the base, but slightly 
sinuated above the basal angle, and with the outer margin serrulate, 
covered with closely set scabrose punctures in the anterior part, and 
by slightly broader and more cicatricose ones in the posterior, the 
latter being divided in the discoidal part by irregular, slightly raised 
smooth intervals ; scutellum punctate laterally; elytra narrow, very 
elongate, the punctures are very deep; pygidium with a few faint 
lateral punctures ; punctures on the sides of the abdomen numerous, 
and bearing each a short greyish hair; metasternum briefly yet 
somewhat densely villose; basal tooth of anterior tibiae not very 
strong, yet distinct ; tarsi very long, upper tooth of all the claws 
shorter than the lower and more slender. 
Length 153-164 mm.; width 7-8 mm. 
The genital armature of this species greatly resembles that of 
S. caffra, but the two lobes are a little more elongate, and are less 
deeply sinuate laterally ; the shape of the clypeus is very different in 
the two species.

Ferruginous, with the elytra redder-brown, club of antenne 
ferruginous, each puncture on the upper and under side with a most 
minute hair, but the pectus is slightly pubescent ; clypeus somewhat 
small, truncate, slightly sinuate in front, clypeal carina moderately 
arcuate but with the suture distinct for the greatest part of the 
width, basal carina indistinct, both the head and the clypeus are 
covered with very closely set round punctures ; prothorax slightly
