Subgenus IV. 



Geejeus Pasc. 

 Narrowly rhomboidal, the elytra with two transverse dark bands interrupted 

 at the suture ; scutellum moderately densely squamose ; setae borne by 

 the strial punctures long, white and almost as large as those of the inter- 

 vals 16 senilis

 Beak in the male fully as long as the head and prothorax ; antenna? long and 

 very slender, the club narrow, elongate and densely pubescent. 



17 acuminatum 



Beak in the male scarcely longer than the prothorax ; antennse shorter and 



much stouter, the club very large, broadly oval, subglobose and sparsely 



pubescent 18 globifer 



Subgenus VI. 

 Narrowly rhomboidal, densely clothed with narrow ochreous scales, the elytra 

 with several more or less unstable dark spots in apical two-thirds, which 

 are clothed with piceous-black squamules 19 penicellus 



Subgenus VII. 

 Rather broadly oval, the humeri not prominent ; pronotum with three broad 

 yellow vittse, the elytra lineate with yellow and black ; scutellum small, 

 glabrous, polished; prosternum not impressed, but with a small discal 

 point from which the scales radiate as in the following group. 



20 liiieellus 

 Subgenus VIII. 

 Elytral squamules very fine, white, disposed in two somewhat even lines on 

 each interval ; legs blackish to dark rufo-piceous. 

 Elytral squamules uniform throughout, slightly broader only near the 



scutellum; form narrowly rhomboidal 21 capillatus 



Elytral squamules much coarser on intervals two to four, for a short distance 

 behind the middle, forming a cloud-like spot ; form more broadly rhom- 

 boid-oval 22 nubecula 



Elytral squamules coarser, uneven in size, yellowish ; legs bright rufous. 



23 clientulus 

 Subgenus IX. 

 Form rather narrowly oval, scarcely at all rhomboidal, the humeral callus 

 small and but slightly prominent ; prothorax rather short and transverse,
