inner apical termination. The antennae in the female are as 

 lono- as or a little longer than the body, with the third to tenth 

 joints smooth and pubescent and with tlie fifth to tenth joints 

 denticulately produced, as in the male. Prothorax irregularly 

 transversely wrinkled above, thickly pubescent, with the ante- 

 rior and posterior borders somewhat blackish ; armed at the 

 middle of each side with a strong, sharp, and slightly recurved 

 spine. Elyti'a with a close fulvous-grey pubescence, with 

 usually the sutural line and the extreme lateral margins black ; 

 very closely and regularly punctulate throughout ; apices 

 truncate, with the angles briefly spinose. 



From pedestris this species can be readily distinguished 

 not only by its size, colour, and dense pubescence, but more 

 especially by the strong sharp spine with which each side of 

 the prothorax is armed ; the rugce of the pronotum also are 

 more numerous and more wavy in appearance.

Amongst known species {Geramhyx) ye?»fsf«5, Pasc, seems 

 most nearly allied to the present one. Though appearing to 

 be congeneric, the differences between the two species are 

 well marked. In venustus ( (^ ) the scape of the antonn;\2 is 

 not angulate at the apex, but carries there a cicatrice limited 

 by a short and not very sharp carina ; the third joint is a 

 little longer than the scape or fourth joint ; the fifth to eighth 

 joints each bear a small spine at their outer apical termina- 

 tion. The prothorax is only slightly rounded at the sides, 

 and above it is almost regularly transversely wrinkled. In 

 the present species the scape is slightly angulate at the ajiox 

 on the inner and inferior face, cairies no distinct carina, and 

 is subequal in length to the third joint, the latter not beiug 

 longer than the fourth ; not one of the joints of the antenni\2 is 

 spinose at the apex on the outer side, though the joints from 

 the sixth to the tenth are, as in venustusj denticulately pro-
