BRACnYCLTTUS STNGFLARis, Kraatz, Deutsche ent. Zeitschr. 

 1879, p. 107, t. 1. fig. 6. 



Between Hakone and Syama, in flowers of Deutzia. 



Agrees with Kraatz's description, witli tlie unimportant excep- 

 tion that the posterior fascia of the elytra is bright yellow instead 

 of "testaceous " like the anterior band, and that the base of the 

 elytra is not red, but a light purplish brown. The genus is closely 

 allied to XylotrecTius, Mr. Lewis's example showing the rudiments 

 of frontal carinae. 



AnAGLTPTTIS IflPONENSTS, U. Sp. 



A. gibboso quoad formam similis, sed diifert coloribus Isetioribus, 

 elytris apice transversim sinuato-truncatis, angulo exterior! longe 

 spinoso, etc. Postice attenuatus, niger, elytris dimidio basali 

 rufo, antice fascia lata utrinque purpureo-nigra cinereo-marginata, 

 a sutura curyatim et oblique versus marginem (quod non atti- 

 genti) ducta, medio macula magna communi cinerea ; posthac, 

 fascia lata anlice bidentata nigra, apice late caeruleo-griseis. 

 Capita et thorace creberrime ruguloso-punctulatis, hoc postice 

 gibboso subcompresso, basi consti-icto ; elytris a basi usque ad 

 apicem recte angustatis, apice transversim sinuato-truncatis, 

 angulo suturali breviter, externo longissime, spinoso, basi rectis 

 humeris subacutis, crista utrinque basali valde elevata, carinula 

 submarginali postice acuta usque ad spinam continuata. Antennae, 

 articulo tertio sequente duplo longiori, apice intus quam in 

 A. gibhoso brevius spinoso, articulis di^-e"" apice brevissime spi- 

 nosis. Long. 7-9 millim.

Paeacltttjs, noY, gen. 



Gen. Anaglypto affine ; differt antennarum articulis 3-5 sub- 

 sequalibus, tertio apice in utroque sexu inermi. 



This new generic division is necessary for the reception of a 

 species which diff"ers from Anaglyptus and Cyrtophorus by the 

 absence of all trace of spine, in either sex, from the 3rd antennal 

 joint. In the style of marking and general form it difters also 

 much from the genera mentioned and all other Clytinse. Clytus 

 caucasicus, Motschulsky, referred by modern writers to the genus 

 Anaglyptus or to Cyrtophorus, belongs to JParaclyftis.
