Cyclomorphus. 



{Hope) Lac. Erot. 258 {typ). globosus, Guer.). 



Allied on the one hand by its eyes and polished appearance to 

 Thonius, but gradually fading off into Brachysphcenus. Some of 

 the latter genus (e.g. B. pertinax) evidently belong here. The 

 intermediate coxal line is present, and nearly reaches the margin.

Very close to Thonius in markings and sculpture, but with a 

 short thorax, and coxal line developed.

 posterior absent.
