margin of corium conspicuously shorter than claval suture.

At once distinguished from the preceding species by the struc- 

 ture of the pronotum and radial vein, the differently colored 

 legs, etc. 



Sadoletus vulvatus sp. nov. 



Oblong, black; four transverse spots on basal margin of pro- 

 notum (the outermost spot on each side placed before base of 

 elytra), a triangular spot near costal margin of corium a little 

 before the middle, a triangular spot on corium near the claval 

 suture a little behind its middle, and an anteriorly sinuate wedge- 

 shaped spot occupying the apical angle of corium white; sub- 

 callose and impunctate, membrane hyaline, sixth ventral and 

 genital segments of female ferruginous; antennae and rostrum 

 pitchy black, legs black, first joint of tarsi (except extreme base 

 and apex) whitish testaceous; a lateral band on vertex close to 

 the eyes and underside of body clothed with a short, thick, 

 deciduous, silvery sericeous pubescence, remaining parts o:l^ 

 body glabrous. Head a little broader than base of anterior 

 pronotal lobe, above very thickly rugulosely punctulate, second 

 joint of antennae twice the length of first, last joint of rostrum 

 entirely passing base of venter. Pronotum with a rather deep 

 transverse impression before the middle, anterior lobe slightly 

 narrowed from base to apex, very thickly and finely sub- 

 rugulosely punctate with a few very small transverse smooth 

 areas, posterior lobe one-half longer than anterior lobe, thickly 

 and rather coarsely punctate with a percurrent median keel. 

 Corium and clavus somewhat coarsely punctate, inner apical 

 area of mesocorium almost impunctate, the uniseriately punctate 

 basal part of the exocorium subequal in length to the apical part, 

 in which the broad interstice between the exterior and interior 

 row of punctures is scarcely elevated but irregularly subseriately 

 punctate, apical margin of corium considerably shorter than 

 claval suture. Pectus moderately thickly and rather coarsely 

 punctate. Front femora in the apical half armed with a spine. 



Length, female, 4.2 millimeters.
