34 ME. MARTIX JACOBY ON KEW [May 12, 



scutellum fulvous ; elytra evenly convex, light flavous, punctured 

 in double rows, the punctures fine, rather irregularly placed here 

 and there, all the margins narrowly, and a humeral spot dark 

 aeneous, below the middle is a broad transverse band with strongly 

 dentate edges and not extending to the sides, another transverse, 

 slightly curved band is jDlaced below the middle touching- the 

 lat*eral margins but not the suture, the latter is likewise of 

 jeneous colour and Mddened angulately opposite the posterior band, 

 with which it is nearly connected at that place ; elytral epipleiu^se, 

 underside and legs flavous, the tibife streaked with black at the 

 outer margin, mesosternal process short and straight. 



Hah. Yilcanota, Peru. (A single specimen.) 



In the Museum of the Stettin collection another specimen from 

 Bolivia is contained, sent to me for examination, which I cannot 

 separate from this species, but the elytral band at the base is not 

 \ dentate but concave at the anterior margin and is connected with 

 the humeral spot, and the postei'ior band is reduced to a trans- 

 verse spot not extending to either margin ; in other respects there 

 are no diflferences of importance.
