one specimen, tlie antennae (the testaceous lovrer surface of 

 the basal joints excepted) and lejis black or metallic. Kead 

 and prothorax almost smooth, the head sliort, broad, the 

 prothorax transverse, obliquely narrowed behind ; antennae 

 rather stout, the joints longer than broad. Elytra widening 

 posteriorly, rounded at the apex, transversely excavate on 

 the disc anteiiorly and depressed along the suture at tlie 

 base ; unequally punctate, the punctures coarse and crowded 

 at the sides and more scattered on the disc, becoming very 

 fine or obsolete at the base and apex. Anterior trochanters 

 producedinto a very short tooth; anterior tibiaj rather slender, 

 obliquely excavate, and with the inner margin diaphanous 

 towards the apex ; anterior tarsal joint 2 shorter than 1, 

 simple ; intermediate tibitC almost straight, becoming gradu- 

 ally stouter towards the apex, and furnished with a rather 

 long narrow lobe at the inner apical angle and a curved 

 pencil of hairs beneath the outer angle.

A pair from Mlanje and a ? from Lusinga. More 

 elongate than H. serni/cevis, the puncturing of the disc of the 

 elytra more diffuse ; the c? with a shorter s])ur to the 

 anterior trochanters, the anterior tibiae less sinuate, and the 

 intermediate pair straighter, less swollen, and bearing a 

 longer appendage at the inner apical angle. The anterior 

 tarsi of ^ are simple as in H. amplipennis and H. modestus.
