tf . The club of the antenna is very long, and the teeth of the 

 front tibia are short and sharp.

 lytra at the middle, and the terminal tooth of the front tibia is 

 long and blunt.

Both in shape and coloration this is a very well-marked and 

 peculiar insect. I have examined several females, but only a 

 single male, in which specimen alone the prothorax has a broad 

 median dark band. It is not yet possible to decide whether this 

 represents a sexual feature or merely a colour variety. 



203. Anomala trivirgata. 



Anomala trivirgata. Fairm.,* Ann. Soc. Ent. Belg. xxxii, 1888, 

 p. 20. 



Pale yellow, with a very faint golden or greenish lustre, and 

 decorated with black markings consisting of two spots between 

 the eyes, three longitudinal bars on the pronotum, almost but not 

 quite reaching the front and hind margins, a common spot upon 

 the elytral suture a little before the middle (sometimes broken 

 into two), and a very small longitudinal spot opposite the last and 

 near the lateral margin on each side. There is also a spot in each 

 anterior angle of the pygidium. 



The shape is oval, moderately elongate and convex. The clypeus 

 is rugose and rather broad, and the forehead is densely punctured. 

 The pronotum is finely and closely punctured, but rather less 

 finely at the sides ; the lateral margins are gently bisinuated, with 

 the front angles blunt and the hind angles almost acute, the base 

 being rather prominent in the middle and not margined. The 

 scutellum is well punctured, and the elytra have a sutural line and 

 two paired dorsal lines of fine punctures, with the intervening 

 spaces broad and irregularly punctured ; there are also micro- 

 scopic punctures sparingly scattered over the whole surface. The 

 pygidium is rather strongly transversely striolated. There is no 

 sternal process. The sternum is clothed with moderately long 

 yellow hair. The front tibia is bidentate, the hind tibia rather 

 long and slender and the larger claw of the front and middle feet 

 is cleft. The fifth joint of the antenna is longer than the third 

 and fourth. 



<S . The club of the antenna is long, and the terminal tooth of 

 the front tibia short and sharp. The pygidium is protuberant at 

 the end and the abdomen is longitudinally channelled beneath. 



Length, 15-17 mm. ; breadth, 8'5-9'5 mm.
