Hab. S. Africa, Dunljrody. 



Two females (tf C. noiuiilhurusc^ Pic, arc before me. They 

 are broader and more convex than ids C. innotatus, and have 

 the liead wholly or in part black, the prothorax testaceous, 

 with a transverse black patch on the anterior part of the 

 disc, the elytra uniforndy ])iuish-black, the anteume testa- 

 ceous in their basal half and black thence to the tip, and tlie 

 legs (tlie posterior femora and tibiai excepted) testaceous. 

 C. notiitithorax is com{)ared with Colules bucculor, Ab., but 

 it cannot bear any resemblance to that species.

 antennte and legs, and intlated elytra.
