A somewhat aberrant species. A specimen, apparently the female, 

 has the elytra less produced and the apex more rounded. 



774. I. breviuSCUluS, n.s. Piceous, sparingly clothed with 

 griseous scales, rather short, broad and convex. Antennce ferruginous, 

 pubescent, with the first and second joints of the funiculus of about 

 equal length. Rostrum stout, rather short, not carinated. Thorax 

 about as long as it is broad, rather wider in front than behind, and 

 somewhat incurved laterally behind the middle; its. surface is impunc- 

 tate, rather uneven, being transversely depressed in front, as well as 

 near the sides behind. The elytra are short, broad, and convex, and 

 wider than the thorax, the sides are rounded, the apex produced ; the 

 disc is nearly level, yet exhibits an obsoletely carinated aspect, and is 

 coarsely, but neither deeply nor regularly, punctured ; the posterior 

 portion is abruptly declivous, and bears four tubercles, two behind near 

 the suture, the others, a little in front of these, are placed near the 

 sides. The legs are squamose and bear a few griseous setse.
