This species differs from the last in coloration as well as in 

 being narrower and more coarsely punctured, the elytra not pro- 

 duced at the apex, &c.

Hab. Batcbian; Kaioa. 



The tufts on the elytra of this species are mostly very small, 

 and are here and there united, or nearly so ; in a specimen from 

 Kaioa about twelve may be counted on each elytron.

The sculpture of the prothorax is like that of iV^ puncticollis ; 

 but it IS otherwise of the elytra, which have also twin tufts and 

 a pronounced angle at the shoulder.
