50 K. JORDAN 



Larger and especially broader than ,A. stigmatica; pronotum 

 with traces only of a row of four minute grey dots on the disc; 

 elytra without a basal spot above the shoulder, but as in stigma- 

 tica with two spots before the middle, the outer spot standing 

 a little further basad than the other, instead of the two being 

 placed side by side, the postmedian velvety black spot larger 

 and more sharply defined than in stigmatica. The club of the 

 antenna is longer; the pronotum is much more uneven^ the trans- 

 verse depression being deeper and the swellings higher ; the 

 subbasal hump of the elytrum also is higher.
