The third, fourth, and fifth joints of the antennae are small, 



and equal or nearly so inte7' se ; the club quite distinctly consists 



of six joints. I am doubtful of the sex of my unique example, 



but it is probable that the comparative shortness of the apical 



joint of the antennae points to its being a female. The elytra 



are abbreviated, and separately rounded behind, as in TJiauma- 



glossa : the other characters are of Trogoderma.

 This species is evidently a near ally of the preceding. My 

 unique example is a female ; its antennae scarcely differ from 

 those of the same sex in T. Madeayi, but the slight internal pro- 

 duction of the fifth joint which is distinct in the latter is here 

 not traceable. I have no doubt the antenn^^ of the male are very 

 like those of T. Madeayi (male). The large bright red spot near 

 the apex of each elytron is a very distinctive character.

 The distinction between club and stem in the elytra is very 

 indeterminate, and some dilatation is discernible in the seventh
