tibise are setose in both sexes. Tbe male has the anterior and 

 intermediate tibiae enlarged and obtusely produced at the tarsal 

 end like that figured by Horn, I. c. pi. 8. fig. 18, for the hind

Ageilus sospes, sp. n. 



Cupreus, thorace carinis obsoletis ; elytris 6-maculatis ; subtus, an- 

 tennis pedibusque concoloribus. L. 8 millim. 



^Eneous, with the whole body, legs, and antennae concolorous ; 

 the antennae rather stout, with joints closely set ; the head 

 summit closely strigose; face rugose, with two lobe-shaped 

 impressions ; the thorax transverse, rather coarsely rugose, with a 

 linear median impression and another, rather wider, within the 

 middle of the lateral margin ; the scutellum bipartite, anterior 

 part finely strigose, rounded off laterally, inferior part rugose ; 

 the elytra somewhat unevenly sculptured, maculate like A. for- 

 tunatus, apices denticulate, rounded off on the outer edge. 

 Beneath, the abdominal suture is indicated by two short sulci. 

 Legs rather stout. 



A. sospes is very similar to A. fortunatus, but it is much more 

 robust, the vertex of the head clearly strigose and the antennae 

 shorter and compact.
