joint ; it miojlit be possible therefore to regard the club as five- 

 jointed, but at a casual glance it would pass for being only three- 

 jointed, as the eighth joint is very much narrower and shorter 

 than the ninth. Although this species has altogether the general 

 facies of T. Eyrense^ aljncola, and their allies, it is very widely 

 distinct from them by the entirely different shape of the pro- 

 sternal sulci, which are shallow (though perfectly well defined), 

 much wider than the reception of the antennae requires, parallel- 

 sided or nearly so, and open behind.

The different number of joints in the antennal club of the male 

 and female is unusual, but I think the two specimens before me 

 are certainly the sexes of one species.

The third and fourth joints of the antenna3 are very minute, 

 and form a slender connection between the basal two joints (which 

 are robust, as in the rest of the species described above) and the 

 cylindric club. The prosternal sulci are very wide and feeble, 

 being not very noticeable, until in a certain light one sees an 

 oblique track running along them and marking the position of the 

 antennae in repose.
