raised and slightly apically recurved, the posterior process 
moderately compressed, strongly tricarinate, passing tegminal 
apices, a little depressed a short distance from base, where 
it is paler ochraceous in hue, the apex moderately concavely 
attenuated. 
Long., incl. post. pronot. process., 6 mm.; exp. ant. lat. 
process. 3 mm. 
Hab. 8. Nigeria (W. A. Lamborn). 
Allied to O. tenebrosus, Walk., from which it differs in the 
longer posterior pronotal process, which distinctly passes 
the apices of the tegmina, the more slender upturned and 
apically recurved lateral pronotal processes, &c. 
Oxyrhachis pandatus, sp. n. 
Pronotum piceous, the central carination, margins, and 
apical areas of the anterior lateral processes and central area 
of posterior pronotal process pale testaceous ; body beneath 
and legs ochraceous, the femora piceous ; tegmina hyaline, 
the venation brownish ochraceous, the base blackish ; pro- 
notum somewhat coarsely punctate, the anterior lateral 
processes obliquely upturned, their apices subacute and 
recurved, their margins distinctly carinate, posterior process 
passing tegminal apices, the apical area upturned, its apex 
subacute, its under surface finely obsoletely serrate. 
Long., incl. post. pronot. process., 8 mm.; exp. lat. 
pronot. process. 84 mm. 
Hab. Cameroons (Hscalera, Brit. Mus.). 
Allied to O. subserrata, Walk. (Congo and Angola), but 
differing in smaller size, shorter and upturned lateral pro- 
notal processes, and obsoletely serrate under surface of the 
posterior pronotal process; from O. tenebrosus, Walk. (Sierra 
Leone), it is to be distinguished by the longer and more 
upturned posterior pronotal process and by the longer and 
more acute pronotal lateral processes ; it is to be also separated 
from O. gambia, Fairm, (Senegallia and Calabar), by the 
longer posterior pronotal process. 
Oxyrhachs nigropictus, sp. 0. 
Pronotum pale testaceous, the frontal area, nearly apical 
of posterior process, and the face black, the central discal 
pronotal area with two blackish fasciz ; body beneath and 
legs blackish, the tibiz pale testaceous ; tegmina hyaline, 
the venation on costal area ochraceous, remaining venation 
and a small spot at posterior angle of inner tegminal margin 
blackish ; pronotum coarsely punctate, the lateral processes
