depression in the middle area of the rostrum. Prothorax as 

 long as broad at the base. An oblong spot at the posterior mar- 

 gin laterally, and another at each lateral margin; a fine inter- 

 rupted line of scales along the anterior margin. Elytra oblong 

 oval, one and one-half times as long as broad, finely and regu- 

 larly punctate-striate. Each elytron with eight irregular pale 

 greenish white scale spots. The spotted area slightly depressed. 

 Two spots at the base, one of which is the largest spot at the 

 discal area and the other at the lateral margin. Two spots at 

 the middle, the outer one reaching almost to the lateral margin. 

 Three spots forming a cross row in the apical third and one spot 

 in the apical triangle. Between the last-mentioned spots a num- 

 ber of scattered scales along the margin. In the male the latter 

 spots approach each other more than in the female. Legs 

 sparsely punctured and finely setose. Tibiae with a few tubercles 

 on the underside. 



Female, length, 17 millimeters; width of elytra, 8. Male, 

 length, 17.5 millimeters; width of elytra, 7.5.

The female of Macrocyrtus ilocanus is similar in form to the 

 female of M. erosus Pasc. Both of these species and M. ben- 

 guetanu^ Schultze have the apical ends of the elytra more or 

 less divergent and differ in this respect from the type of this 

 genus, M. nigrans Pasc.

Black, with pale yellowish green spots, elytra almost entirely 

 pink or violet with bare spots. Rostrum densely and irregularly 

 confluently punctured with a medial groove reaching to the 

 vertex and a cross groove at the base. An oblong narrow 

 pale green scale spot reaching the front. Prothorax subglo- 

 bose, slightly broader than long, coarsely and confluently punc- 

 tured, with an anterior and posterior submarginal groove. At 

 the middle laterally a roundish pale yellowish green scale spot 

 and another larger spot at the lateral margin confluent with a 

 narrow anterior marginal band. Elytra oblong oval, irregu- 

 larly punctate-striate; in the female apically slightly produced; 

 covered with violet scales, with the exception of the following 

 bare areas and yellowish markings: Beginning at the base and 

 along the suture a bare area, expanded spotlike at the middle 

 from which an irregular oblique band extends toward each lat- 

 eral margin. At the lateral margin three squarish bare spots 

 and another at the suture and the apical triangle. The violet 

 of the elytra turns into yellowish green near the margins. In
