Cilibe granulosa, De Bréme. oe 
Easily recognizable by its usually squalid aspect, and coarsely sculp- 
tured and closely granulose surface. The humeral angle is more or less 
strongly prominent ; the expanded lateral margins of the elytra broad and 
concave ; and there is at the sides a more or less distinct sinus behind the 
humeral angle ; the costz on the elytra are more conspicuous (especially ~ 
at the base) than in any of those preceding. In some examples we can : 
perceive on the elytra a very minute pubescence. 
Length, 54-6} lines ; width of elytra, 23-3; lines. 
Hab, New Zealand. Six examples. 
Cilibe rugosa, n. sp. 
» Near C. granulosa, but distinctly narrower ; the expanded lateral margins 
of the elytra very narrow, not concave, except slightly at the base; the 
surface of the elytra distinctly punctured, reticulately rugose, not granulose, 
or granulose-punctate, and with three distinctly prominent costz on each ; 
humeral angles not prominent, the sides not sinuous behind them; and the 
anterior tibize have the outer apical angle strongly dentiform. 
From the following (C. tibialis, the only other species having the outer 
apical angle of the anterior tibze dentiform) it may be known by its different 
form, somewhat squalid, opaque surface, the elytra distinctly rugose, costate, 
and pubescent; the prothorax more deeply emarginate at apex, the front 
angles more prominent, the hind angles not acutely produced, ete. 
Brown, slightly squalid; head (except the epistoma) and prothorax 
coarsely punctured, the interstices natrow, appearing a little elevated, and 
a good deal broken up on the front of the head and the base of the pro- 
thorax, allowing the punctures to run confusedly together. Head trape-— 
zoidal in front ; sides of the epistoma almost completely continuous with 
the antennary orbits, the angles slightly rounded: prothorax areuate- 
emarginate in front, the angles a little produced, subacute, directed for- 
wards ; sides regularly but moderately rounded, more narrowed anteriorly 
than behind, a little sinuous in front of the hind angles, these latter not 
acutely produced, slightly divergent ; the three impressions by the base as 
ordinary, the two outer strongly marked, and another rounded depression 
on the middle, at each side of the median line: elytra rather strongly nar- 
rowed behind, humeral angles not prominent ; sides slightly rounded from 
the humeral angles, not at all sinuous behind them; the surface somewhat 
coarsely punctured, very distinctly reticulate-rugose, and very thinly clothed 
with a short, minute, rigid, pale golden pubescence, on each elytron three 
very distinct coste, with a much fainter one between them ; these send out 
irregular, lateral, elevated branches, which cause the reticulate-rugose ap- 
Pearance before mentioned, the interstices being somewhat squalid; the
