as the head, is diagonally attenuate laterally and deeply emarginate 
at apex, with the angles sharp, but not projecting; the tarsi of the 
anterior tibie have the three penultimate joints slightly ampliated 
at the tip, but the joints of the other tarsi are normal. 
Length 7-74 mm. ; width 33-4 mm. 
Fahreeus’s description was made from a female, the type of which 
I have seen.

) 
Pale testaceous, shining with a faint metallic tinge; head and 
prothorax covered with fine punctures nearly equi-distant and 
separated from each other by a smooth interval equal in width to 
their diameter, and having a faint supra-lateral impression on each 
side ; scutellum more or less plainly punctured ; elytra very deeply 
and closely punctured and having each two dorsal, fine costules 
edged on each side by a regular row of punctures; anterior tibice 
bi-dentate ; pygidium and underside briefly pubescent ; in the male 
the clypeus is cleft right to the base, and produced into two long 
sharply aculeate lobes, slightly divaricating, and also slightly 
bisinuate outwardly, longer than the head, and looking like two 
porrect horns ; the joints of all the tarsi have a thick brush of hairs 
underneath, and the three basal ones, particularly the second, are 
very greatly dilated; in the female the clypeus is very obliquely 
narrowed laterally towards the median part, which is deeply cleft 
triangularly, but at its longest part it is only half the length of the 
head, and all the tarsi, except for a very slight ampliation of the 
three basal joints of the anterior pair are normal. 
Length 6-74 mm.; width 33-4 mm. 
Hab. Southern Rhodesia (Salisbury, Sebakwe, Umtali).
