The protliorax has a somewhat smooth appearance, only inter- 

 rupted by the punctures. 



Cyamobolus duplicatus. C. ovalis, niger, albo varius; rostro 

 tenuiore, basi excepto, nitido ; antennis ferrugineis, funiculo articulo 

 secundo quam primo vix sesquilongiore ; prothorace conico, punctis 

 majoribus minoribusque iutermixtis sat confertim impresso ; elytris 

 striato-punctatis, punctis ovalibus, approximatis, interstitiis latis, 

 rugosis, irregulariter punctatis, pone humeros macula magna rotun- 

 data, et a medio lineis duabus, postice conjunctis, dense ochraceo- 

 squamosis ; rima pectoral! magis elongata ; pedibus ochi-aceo-squamo- 

 sis. Long. 6 lin.

The greater length of the pectoral canal extending to between 

 the intermediate coxse must be regarded as exceptional ; all the 

 species of Oyamoholus have pale ochreous tarsi, and the scales are 

 apparently more numerous under the femora, and, occasionally, 

 also above, especially of the posterior pair. G. Marci, Boh., does 

 not belong to this genus. The three species described above have 

 longer legs, and particularly as regards the anterior pair, than 

 either G. Dehaanii or G. Sturmii ; the sexes, as Lacordairc ob- 

 serves, are pretty nearly alike. 



Ctdostethus. 



(Cryptorhynchinse.) 



Bostrum fere rectum ; scrobes prsemedianse. Oculi majusculi, ro- 

 tundati, antice approximate Elytra basi prothorace baud latiora. 

 Femora crassa, infra dentata ; tibics subarcuatse, squamis decum- 

 bentibus. Rima pectoralis pone coxas anticas terminata ; me- 

 sosternv/m, fornicatum. Ccetera ut in Gyamobolo. 



Tbe affinity is perhaps not so much to Gyamobolus as the habit 

 and coloration would lead one to suppose. The character of the 

 mesosternum {en gouttiere) should place Gyamobolus near the GryjJ- 

 torJiyncJms allies ; but Lacordaire makes it an exception, and puts
