Junsai. 



Agrees with X. ibex (Grebler) in the points in which it differs 

 from the European X. antilope, but differs in there being no trace, 

 in the numerous specimens exandned, of yellow sutural margin 

 between the 2nd and 3rd fasciae of the elytra, but, on the other 

 hand, distinct traces of a similar margin between the 3rd fascia 

 and the yellow apex. The posterior margin of the thorax is 

 yellow, interrupted sometimes in the middle, and sometimes also 

 on each flank, but never forming two distinct subtriangular spots ; 

 the yellow spot on the mesothoracic episterna is wanting, as in 

 X. ibex, and the 2nd fascia is sinuated behind as in that species ; 

 it is also continued anteriorly along the lateral margin, which 

 under the shoulders is testaceous, as is also the base near the 

 scutellum.
