 J "6 raised margin of the clypeus is not continuous across the 

 iront. The "trilobed outline" of the head is very feebly 

 I eveloped, appearing as a slightly-trisinuate curve, the middle 

 obe not very much narrower than the lateral ones. 



-LJHs species belongs to the group in which I have placed the 



Preceding one, but its hind coxse of about tlie same length as the 



jnetasternum refer it to a different part of the tabulation of that 



|,,°^P- Its place is on page 426 (loc. cit.), beside H. incola, 



'i-CKb., from which it differs inter alia by the much-less close 



Punoturation of its head behind the clypeal suture, and the form 



'le hind angles of its prothorax, which when viewed from 



ve appear almost right angles, whereas in //. incola, tliey are 



'luite rounded-oft- from all points of view.
