  punctate 
  every- 
  

   where 
  on 
  the 
  upper 
  side, 
  rugoso-punctate 
  in

  Through 
  the 
  courtesy 
  of 
  Herr 
  Kolbe, 
  of 
  the 
  Berlin 
  Museum, 
  

   I 
  have 
  been 
  able 
  to 
  examine 
  one 
  of 
  the 
  co-types. 
  The 
  shape, 
  

   sculpture, 
  and 
  vestiture 
  of 
  this 
  species 
  are 
  the 
  same 
  as 
  in 
  A. 
  picimis, 
  

   Fahr., 
  but 
  the 
  clypeus 
  is 
  not 
  quite 
  so 
  deeply 
  emarginate 
  in 
  the 
  

   centre 
  as 
  in 
  that 
  species 
  ; 
  the 
  emargination 
  is 
  more 
  like 
  that 
  of 
  

   A. 
  tessullatus, 
  Burm., 
  = 
  A. 
  mactilatus,
