not so roundly ampliate, and the metathorax is more nodose towards 

 the decHvity ; the frontal groove is much more distinct, and the 

 punctuation of the head very different, the punctures being smaller 

 and very closely set, instead of being large and scattered about the 

 striolate background. Length 18 mm.

$• . Black, not very shining, and clothed with a long, very dense 

 and very fine whitish pubescence, antennae with the exception of the 

 basal joint and legs reddish ; head small, closely and broadly 

 punctate, eyes vertical, set in the anterior part, posterior part a little 

 obliquely attenuate with the posterior angle rounded, basal joint of 

 antennae not distinctly impressed in the anterior face ; thorax rugose 

 but shaped absolutely like that of A. glohularia ; the three first 

 joints of the abdominal segments are a little more elongate than in 

 A. glohularia, and more conical ; they are covered on the upper side 

 with very closely set foveae on the first and second, and with big 

 punctures on the third, and are alveolate beneath, but the other seg- 

 ments are closely punctulate above and underneath, and the hooked 

 spines of the trochanters are strongly developed ; the tegulae are 

 ^rnall and light brown, the wings are hyaline with the nervules light 

 chestnut brown, the anterior margin of the fore-wings above the 

 stigma is narrowly suffused with the same colour, and there is a 

 large, transverse patch of light brown reaching from the anterior 

 margin to the median part of the wing and situated at a short 

 ■distance from the apex. Length 12-13 mm.

It is most probable, judging from the difference in the two sexes
