Hab. Delagoa Bay (G@. A. K. Marshall). 
Slightly oblong-ovate ; thorax nearly as wide as the elytra 
at the base, quite three times as wide as long. Head with 
the trophi yellow, eyes finely granulate. Thorax more than 
twice and a half times as wide as long; front angles acute ; 
sides widening to about the middle, much rounded, not ex~- 
panded, but the extreme limb narrowly reflexed; base not 
margined ; the surface even and not impressed ; deep orange- 
red, with the front and side-margins narrowly yellow; the 
unctuation is very close and very fine. Scutellum black. 
Elytra with four large yellow spots, two on each almost in a 
square, but the anterior pair are scarcely separated by the 
very narrow black edge of the suture, while the posterior ones 
are more widely divided ; the transverse black fascia widens 
out on the margin of the disk; the whole lateral margin, 
including the shoulders and apex, is bordered with a deep 
orange margin of equal width; the whole underside, legs, and 
mouth-organs are orange-yellow. ‘The epipleure are very 
concave, but not fossulate nor expanded, and terminate before 
the apex.

very like D. decora, Muls., a species from Senegal, of which
