2 colore fere precedentis, sed clypeo nigro, ad basim flavo- 
aurantiaco-maculato, scutello et antennis nigris, tibiis nigri- 
cantibus, tarsis ex majore parte atro-brunneis. 
Structurally this appears to me to be almost identical with 
P. carinatus, but the dark legs (the hind tibize inwardly at the 
base being rufescent) easily distinguish it. The second cubital 
cell is triangular and not at all petiolate. The second abdominal 
fascia does not occupy half the length of the segment. 
Hab. Victoria (French).

3g colore P. vidui, sed macula interantennali elongata flava, 
scutello nigro, maculis pronotalibus minutioribus aurantiacis, 
distinguendus. Structura valde distinctus. Clypeus fere recte 
truncatus, medius depressus, utrinque quasi rotundatim cari- 
natus, obscure punctatus. Mesonotum grosse punctatum, post- 
scutello inermi, tegulis nitentibus, ex majore parte obsoletissime 
minutissime punctulatis. Abdominis segmentum primum fortiter 
transversum, rugosissime grosse punctatum, parte declivi media 
longitudinaliter carinata. Segmentum 2 dorsale fortiter basim 
versus convexim elevatum, fascia utrinque ante medium seg- 
mentum extensa, profunde rotundatim antice emarginata, seg- 
mentis ceteris aurantiacis. Segmentum 2 ventrale post suleum 
fortiter abrupte elevatum, elevatione summa subangulatim 
producta; segmentum ultimum fortiter convexum, pilis erectis 
vestitum. Antenne 11-articulate, articulis 3 ultimis minimis. 
Cellula 2 cubitalis haud petiolata. Long, circiter 11 mm.
