 the basal edge, is a dark longitudinal blotch which joins the 

 sutural marking and at about halt" its length it spreads out 

 towards the lateral edge, over the second segment of the 

 abdomen is a dark undulating fascia which extends quite 

 across the elytra, at the apex is a third dark marking which 

 leaves a very narrow reddish margin on the outer edge; the 

 antennte and legs reddish brown, with 7-10 joints of the tirst 

 generally dusky. This species and the next agree with 0. 

 unduhita^ Kraatz, in having the last four antennal joints 

 enlarged and forming a club. 



The elytral markings of this and 0. imitans differ from 

 0. iinduhita^ Kraatz ; otherwise they are not very dissimilar. 



Hub. Junsai. Several specimens.

Elliptical, reddish brown, densely sculptured, pubescent ; 

 the head and thorax unicolorous ; thoracic fovea wide and 

 shallow ; the elytra, margins of the suture intuscate, at the 

 base is a somewhat similar marking to that of 0, etegantula, 

 but less defined in outline, the middle fascia is broader and 

 in front of it near the lateral edge is a detached dark spot, 

 the apical marking is rather broader and the margin less 

 distinctly red ; the antennaj and legs reddish brown, with 

 7-10 joints of the first dusky.

 reddish brown. The detached spot near the middle of the 

 elytral margin is also a cons[Hcuous specific character.
