47. Hapalochrus angulatus, sp. n. 



(J . Elongate, somewhat convex, shining, the head sub- 

 opaque ; thickly clothed with ratlier long, serai-erect hairs ; 

 cyaneous, bluish-green, or green, the autennal joints 1-3 iu 

 part, and the intermediate femora at the base, testaceous, 

 the rest of the legs and antennae black or metallic. Head 

 densely punctulate; anteniise not very stout, subfiliform. 

 Prothorax transverse, obliquely narrowed behind, closely 

 punctulate laterally, almost smooth on the disc. Elytra 

 . long, widened to near the apex, broadly rounded at the tip ; 

 densely, not very coarsely punctate. Anterior tibise com- 

 pressed and slightly sinuate ; anterior tarsal joints 1 and 2 

 si ghtly thickened, subequal in length, 2 with a claw-like 

 extension over 3 ; intermediate tibiae (Fl. VIII. fig. 28) 

 moderately thickened, angularly dilated at the middle 

 externally, and deeply, sinuously excavate from about the 

 basal third to near the apex, and also excavate at the tip, 

 beneath.

Described from two males with precisely similar (^-cha- 

 racters, tlie angular lateral median dilatation of the inter- 

 mediate tibice being an unusual development in the genus. 

 H. rolki and H. sinuatipes, Pic (1911), from"E. Africa,^' 

 are perhaps allied forms. 



48. Hapalochrus cyanoccphulus, sp. n. 



^ . Elongate, rather narrow, shining, the head opaque ; 

 finely pubescent, and also clothed with long, semi-erect, 

 fuscous hairs ; head and prothorax cyaneous, the elytra 

 green, the anteunal joints 1-4 in part_, the bases of the 

 intermediate femora beneath and the ventral segments 

 (some black markings excepted) testaceous, the rest of the 

 legs, antennae, and undir surlace black. Head rugulosely 

 punctulate ; antennic long, rather stout, subfiliform. Pro- 

 thoiax broader than long, very spaiscly punctulate, smooth 

 on the disc. Elytra long, gradually v>idcning to near the 

 apex, the latter rounded ; densely, rugulosely punctured.
