vertex, with the base above somewhat faintly obscured with 

 cyaneous. Thorax wider than the head ; lateral margins sub- 

 ampliated, rounded, and transversely sulcate ; base and apex 

 constricted and transversely sulcate; disk finely and obscurely 

 punctate, with a faint central raised longitudinal line. Scutel- 

 lum finely punctate, with a central longitudinal impression. 

 Elytra obscurely punctate, with eight fine longitudinal striaj — 

 two subsutural, four on disk, and two near margins ; these 

 stria3 are most distinct on the basal ochraceous portion, and 

 become more evanescent and obscure towards apex. Prester- 

 num transversely striate and very sparingly punctate ; meta- 

 sternum coarsely punctate. 



Long. 42 millims. 



This species is allied to P. hicolor^ Parry, but differs by the 

 much more rounded sides of the thorax, the legs entirely 

 ochraceous, &c.
