punctured ; anterior two-thirds, convex, black, anteriorly ferruginous, on the 
posterior part of this portion a large, central, sub-quadrate fovea: posterior 
third depressed, obscure ferruginous, the posterior margin broadly black ; 
scutellum dark ferruginous, the base almost black, closely punctured ; elytra 
ferruginous ; clavus closely punctured in rows, towards the apex, crossed by a 
black band; coriwm bright ferruginous, pale at the base, and, except a row of 
punctures along the claval suture, quite smooth ; across the middle a broad, 
black band, interrupted in the centre, extends in a line with the band on the 
clayus, from which it is disconnected by the claval suture; posterior margin 
with a distinct, black line, which also is continued from the apex considerably 
up the anterior margin; membrane very short, fuscous, with a yellowish streak 
at the base, along the exterior half of the posterior margin of the corium ; 
nerves black ; legs testaceous; thighs all black at the apex, first pair beneath 
with the margins of the channel finely serrate, and one posterior and one an- 
terior and smaller spine. Length 14 line. 
A very well-marked species, differing from the generic type in the 
length of the first joint of the antenne, and, a proportionate shortening 
of the second joint. As specific characteristics, the thickness of the 
antenne and the yellow of the first joint only are very noticeable. 
A single g, in Dr. Power’s collection, taken by Mr. Moncreaff, at 
Southsea, in May, 1870.

tion, and especially iu the middle, transversely depressed, posteriorly trans- 
versely convex, towards the posterior margin with apiceous tinge. Scutellum
