elongate, deeply punctato-striate, intervals smooth ; apical spur of 

 anterior tibiae bent outwardly. 



Length 13 mm. ; width 7 mm. 



Female unknown. 



This species has the facies of a very much reduced example 

 of C. laticornis or C. integer ; it is easily recognised by the perpen- 

 dicular carinate edges of the median prothoracic lobe which are 

 much more developed than in C. integer ; in the shape of the upper 

 part of the median lobe it approximates C. laticornis, which has also 

 the median dorsal part smooth, but the anterior part of the lobe is 

 smooth in the last-named species and punctate in C. integer ; from 

 C. orion it is at once distinguished by the more slender form.

Male ; Clypeus incised in the middle, head rugose and bearing in 

 the centre an incurved tooth from 4 to 5 mm. in height, sub-carinate 

 laterally in front, and grooved for half the length behind ; prothorax 

 nearly vertical in the anterior part, very deeply excavate on each 

 side from the anterior margin to three-fourths of the length, the 

 median part, 4^ or 5 mm. wide, is more or less deeply marginate and 

 either quadri-tuberculate, when not deeply emarginate, or with a 

 slight indication of the two median tubercles and with the outer angles 

 projecting much when deeply emarginate, on each side of the deep 

 sub -lateral excavation there is a sharp, compressed tooth pointing 

 forward, and under that a short sinuate carina with the lateral 

 round impression above it, the anterior declivous part and the 

 posterior one are quite smooth, but the excavation and the sides are 

 roughly punctured and granulose, in the small development the 

 cephalic horn is about 1^ mm. high, the median lobe of the prothorax 

 and the lateral compressed tooth project very little ; elytra finely 

 striate with the striae smooth, intervals also smooth. 



Female (fig. 18) : Clypeus as much incised as in the male, head 

 rugose and bearing in the centre a laminiform tooth about 3 mm- 

 long, a little narrower at base than at tip where it is emarginate, 

 but the angles are sharp ; prothorax having in the central part an 

 obtuse declivous lobe, 4 mm. broad, not unlike that of the male, but
