342 MANDIBULATA. — COLEOPTERA. 



truncate posteriorly, its lateral edges broadly expanded and densely pubescent: 

 elytra linear-elongate, pale-reddish; breast obscure brown: legs pale rufo- 

 testaceous : antenna; rather short, ferruginous, the three basal joints deter- 

 minately incrassated. 

 Differs from the foregoing in having the thorax distinctly truncate behind, the 

 antenna; shorter with the three terminal joints manifestly incrassated, and by 

 its more ovate form. 



A^so rare ; and found in pine woods. " Scotland, by Mr. Wilson." 

 Dr. Leach. " Penllergare, not common." — L. W. Dillwyn^ Esq.

 An. erythropum. Leach MSS.—Steph. Catal. 142. No. 1435. 



Pitchy-black, slightly shining and pubescent : the antenna;, legs, and eyes fer- 

 ruginous. 



The only example I have seen of this insect was taken in " Rivel- 

 stone-wood, by R. Rawlins, Esq. 11 — Dr. Leach. 



Genus CCLVII. — Ochina, Zeigler. 



Aniennw long, the basal joint robust ; the second smaller, subglobose; the two 

 following slender, obconic ; the fifth to the tenth subequal, conic-triangular, 

 produced within and forming a serrated edge; the terminal joint elongate- 

 ovate, acuminate. Palpi short; maxillary with the apical joint obtuse : head 

 small, nutant: thorax transverse, narrowed anteriorly, and somewhat pro- 

 duced in front: elytra convex, the lateral margin not sinuated: body oblong- 

 ovate, moderately convex : femora slightly incrassated : tibia simple, pilose ; 

 tarsi five-jointed. 



This singular genus, which is obviously very distinct from Ano- 

 bium, may be readily known from the insects of that genus by the 

 antennae being serrated, and by having the terminal joint alone of 

 the antennse elongate : the thorax is not convex, or produced in 

 front, as in them, and the elytra are rather densely clothed with 

 pile.
