ante medium abbreviate ; elytris striis 1-2 integris, 3 late inter- 

 rupta, 4-5 apicalibus brevissimis, suturali basi late, apice 

 minime abbreviata ; pygidio utrinque subfoveolato. 

 L. 5^ miU. 



Oval, somewhat convex, black, shining ; the head, forehead 

 impressed, stria complete and semicircular, surface sparsely 

 and microscopically punctured ; the thorax — striaj, internal 

 complete and laterally sinuous in the middle, fine and 

 obscurely crenulate behind the head, external short, not 

 reaching the middle ; the elytra, subhumeral stria somewhat 

 similar to that in H. cavifrons, Mars., but fine and only obso- 

 letely bifurcate, 1-2 fine and complete, 3 fine and broadly 

 interrupted behind the middle, course indicated only by faint 

 points, 4-5 each represented by a very short apical line, 

 sutural anteriorly reaches the middle of the dorsum and 

 terminates just before the apex, from its commencement it 

 inclines a little from the suture; the propygidium is sparingly 

 punctulate at the base and the points gradually become fine 

 and few posteriorly, posterior edge feebly impressed; the 

 pygidium, apex almost smooth, base and sides clearly, not 

 closely, punctured, before the apex on either side is a distinct 

 but shallow fovea; the presternum is without stria; the 

 mesosternum is sinuous anteriorly, marginal stria complete, 

 somewhat fine and close to the edge, transverse stria also fine 

 and apparently interrupted in the middle, both sti'ite are 

 feebly crenulate ; the tibias, anterior 6-7 dentate, intermediate 

 and posterior spinous. 



This species belongs to the cavifrons group ; its trivial 

 name is suggested by its dorsal striae resembling those of a 

 species of tJomalodes [planifbrmis).

Stictostix mormo7ii\ sp. n. 



Oralis, parum convexus, brunneus, nitidus ; fronte concava, supra 

 oculos elevata utrinque oblique carinata ; pronoto, stria marginali 

 anguste elevata, ante scutellum impresso ; elytris striis omnibus 

 integris, interstitiis punctulatis; antennis pedibusque concolo- 

 ribus. 



L. 2| mill. 



Oval, convex above, brown, shining ; the head, face 

 slightly concave, conical over the eyes, the bases of the cones 

 continue obliquely as ridges towards the epistoma, surface 

 uneven and irregularly punctured ; the thorax, lateral edges 

 narrowly elevated, surface punctured irregularly, punctures
