busque rufis ; fronte parum minute tuberculata; elytris basi con- 
spicue sulcatis; mesosterno immarginato; pygidio apice leviter 
concavo; tibiis anticis 7-dentatis. 
L, 22 mill. 
Cylindrical, somewhat elongate, green and metallic; the 
head, scape of antenne in ¢ clothed with long flavous hair, 
feebly convex on the vertex, depressed anteriorly, surface 
ocellately and densely punctate ; the epistoma has asmall but 
distinct tubercle in the middle, at its base and on each side of 
it there is a transverse rugose ridge which is not so con- 
spicuous, before the tubercle the epistoma is reddish and the 
upper margin of the eye is feebly striate; the thorax, the 
punctures on the disk are smaller and much less dense than 
those of the head, marginal stria complete but fine and close 
to the edge anteriorly; the elytra, basal edge narrowly 
smooth, punctured generally like the disk of the thorax, and 
along the bases there is a conspicuous rather wide depression or 
furrow, it passes round the humeral angle, but does not reach 
beyond the middle in the sutural direction ; the propygidium 
and pygidium are densely punctured, and the apex of the 
latter, which is depressed and marked off from the base by a 
transverse ridge, is, under the microscope, seen to be ocel- 
lately punctured ; the prosternum is narrowly marginate and 
wide, especially in front ; the mesosternum has a short stria 
at each anterior angle; the metasternum has a distinct lateral 
stria. 
The punctuation beneath is very similar to that of the 
thorax, but is rather more sparse in the median area of the 
metasternum ; the anterior tibie are 7-dentate, the two apical 
are close together and separate from the others. 
I have not seen the female of this species.

L. 28 mill. 
Cylindrical, somewhat elongate, pitchy brown, shining, 
yather densely punctured above ; the head, the punctures are 
larger than those behind the neck and most dense at the base, 
under the microscope some are ocellate, the fore part of the 
forehead and the epistoma are depressed, and sometimes there 
is a median circular impression or shallow fovea in the
