Synopsis of Species. 

 Elytra without any yellow markings. 



Outer sides of protliorax ampliated from the anterior angle to 

 the median part, produced diagonally from there to the posterior 

 angle, and slightly sinuate above the angle ; base truncate with 

 the lateral parts sloping slightly ; intervals of elytra moderately 

 carinate ; tarsi pubescent underneath impictum. 



Outer sides of prothorax broadly ampliated from the anterior 

 angle to two-thirds of the length, deeply emarginate from there 

 to the posterior angle, median part of the base pedunculate ; 

 intervals of elytra highly carinate ; tarsi spinose underneath . . Zanibezianum. 



Elytra with two yellow patches on each side. 



Tarsi not silky underneath. 



Prothorax longer than broad, outer sides gradually ampliated 

 from the anterior angle to past the median part which is slightly 

 rounded, not aculeate, and narrowed from there to the base 

 which is truncate with the posterior angle slightly rounded ; 

 anterior yellow macula extending from the third to the eighth 

 interval, posterior one from the third to the seventh awhile. 



Prothorax hexagonal, median part of the base pedunculate. 



Elytra moderately convex gratiosum. 



Elytra very convex, almost gibbose Bonvouloiri. 



Prothorax as broad as the base of the elytra, slightly sinuate in 

 the posterior part, base nearly straight from angle to angle. . . . pretiosiun. 



Prothorax hexagonal, as broad as long, base truncate ; elytra 

 gibbose, patches on the elytra very broad gibhosum. 



Tarsi clothed with a silky pubescence underneath. 



Yellow patches on the elytra narrow and consisting of narrow . 



maculse not connected with one another in the intervals. 



Outer sides of prothorax extending diagonally from the apex to 

 the median part, which is sharp, and slightly narrowed and 

 deeply sinuate from there to the posterior angle which is very 

 sharp ; base broadly predunculate ; anterior and posterior yellow 

 maculse narrow and extending on the fifth, sixth, seventh, and 

 eighth intervals ornatum. 



Prothorax broader, nearly as broad as the base of the elytra,
