 Shining black, pubescent ; thorax scarcely narrowed behind, with four deep 



impressions, the two inner ones approximathig; antennae ferruginous and 



thickened externally. 

 A specimen I received from Mr. Bakewell, taken by him near Nottingham, 



appears to correspond with this species, which occurs near London and in 



the north of England.

May be known from Scydmgenus by the great size of its thorax, which is 

 considerably wider in front than behind ; the palpi are rather shorter, and 

 have the terminal joint extremely manute, with the preceding less truncate, 

 and the antennse have the eighth joint considerably smaller than the seventh, 

 and the terminal one very large and obtuse ; the legs are longer and more 

 slender : there is but one indigenous species, forming section B. of Scyd- 

 msenus, p. 84.
