Coptops nanus, Pascoe, Trans. Ent. Soc. ser. 2. v. p. 39. 

 Clyzomedus nanus, Pascoe, Long. Malay, p. 116, pi. 8. f. 4. 

 This species was found in New Guinea by Mr. Wallace, but in 

 none of the intervening islands. 



Clyzomedus annularis. 



C.pallide brunneus, tenuissime griseo pubescens ; antennis griseis, 

 brunneo annulatis. 



Pale reddish brown, with an exceedingly delicate greyish pubes- 

 cence, which is, however, coarser on the head and face ; prothorax 

 very short, impunctate ; scutellum scutiform ; elytra rather short, 

 finely punctured, the punctures larger at the base, the pubescence 

 somewhat irregular and forming, principally posteriorly, one or two 

 indefinite flexuous lines ; body beneath, legs, and antennas with a thin 

 greyish pubescence, the latter with tips of the joints dark reddish 

 brown. Length 3^ lines. 



Clyzomedus has been separated from Coptops on account of its 

 prosternum produced posteriori}', forming an angular transverse 

 ridge between the coxse, not rounded or without such angle. The 

 species are also smaller and far less robust.
