 A single specimen taken in l^t. 54'. 



Nearly related to the preceding species, but smaller, the whole of the 

 head is nifous, the joints of the antennse are shorter ; the prothorax is 

 longer in proportion to its width ; and the elytra, nearer the suture than 

 the lateral margin, have two somewhat elevated approximated blackish 

 ridges, the interior one being the shortest and extending from near the 

 middle to the base, and the other reaching neither base nor apex. 



[Considered by Le Conte as probably a sj)ecimen of G. notulata 

 Fab, with indistinct markings.)
