from pubescence—the first and second being also subopake, and 
densely, roughly, but not very decidedly punctured: the first 
roundish-oblong ; the second a little more rufescent than the 
head, being strictly rufo-ferruginous ; the third a little less opake, 
more deeply, distinctly, and less closely punctured, and (toge- 
ther with the antenne) of a dull diluted-testaceous hue. Scu- 
tellum rather larger than in the other Madeiran Sunii. Abdomen 
pubescent. Legs pale testaceous, but infuscated in parts. 
The single specimen described above was captured, about two 
years ago, by Mr. M. Park, near Funchal. As will be gathered 
from the diagnosis, it differs from the other Madeiran Sunii in 
_ many important particulars, though combining to a certain ex- 
tent the characters of them both; and, indeed, at first sight it 
has somewhat the general aspect and colouring of the Mecogna- 
thus Chimera: nevertheless, apart from minor differences, its 
comparatively immensely developed elytra and scutellum, and 
less basally-constricted abdomen, will at once distinguish it from 
that sect.

7. minute, narrow, black or piceous-black, slightly shining, 
and delicately pubescent. Head and prothoraxz most closely, 
minutely, and equally subpunctulated all over, the punctules 
being very indistinct, and scarcely separable from minute gra- 
nules (so that, perhaps, the surface might be almost regarded as 
subalutaceous instead of punctured) : the former less prominent 
or thiekened behind the eyes than in the T. corticinus, so that 
the latter project sensibly beyond the hinder rim (which is 
scarcely the case in that species); the /atter of much the same 
shape as in the T. corticinus and bilineatus, but with the longi- 
tudinal foveze more obscure, being subobsolete. Hiytra a trifle 
more picescent than the head and prothorax, and a little more 
evidently punctulated (though much more finely so than in the 
other species). The basal half of the antenne dull brownish 
ferruginous. Legs diluted testaceous.
