hoc albo-marginato ; elytris griseo-pubescentibus sutura nigra ad 

 apicem acuminata. 



Long. 11-12, Lat. 5-5% mm - 



Ovate, head and prothorax with a median band of rich-brown 

 depressed hairs, disk of the latter almost rufous with the outer margins 

 white ; elytra very ovate, covered with a short, thick, pale-yellow 

 pubescence and having a broad sutural margin acuminated towards the 

 apex and stopping a little short of it.

Prcecedenti eerie simillimus, sed elytris vitta discoidali nonnunquam 

 fere obsoleta, cinnamonea vet pallide-fulva saepeque postice interrupta, 

 primo intuitu differt. 



Same as type, elytra with a more or less distinct cinnamoneous 

 discoidal band which is even reduced to a faint supra humeral dot, in 

 which case the dot is generally rich cinnamon. 



Allied to G. Andersoni, Chaud., which may prove to be only a 

 smaller variety of G. amabilis, Boh., but more ovate and smaller than these 

 two species. Had I not seen a very numerous series of examples, I 

 would have been inclined to consider several grades of colouring as 

 distinct ; the ovate facies, when compared to other species of that group, 

 imparts to G. ovipennis an unlikeness with its congener ; in its nearest 

 ally G. Andersoni, the sutural band and the discoidal cinnamon vitta 

 on each elytra are very much broader and more strongly defined. 



2t. G-. agilis. spec, no v. 



Niger, ovatus, pube grisea vet cinnamonea tectus ; prothorace 

 augusto, in medio nigro-vittato ; elytris elongato-ovatis, sutura, 

 margine laterali, linea dor sail albis vittaque sub-lata, nigra, juxta 

 suturam posita in singulo ornatis. 



Long. 12-13, lat. 5-6 mm - 



Shaped like G. ovipennis, but the elytra are a little more elongated, 

 narrowed at the base, covered with a yellowish or cinnamon pube- 

 scence ; prothorax very narrow, denuded in the centre, with the outer 

 margin slightly whitish ; elytra with a broad sutural band, a narrow 

 discoidal line and the suture whitish, and on each side of the broad 

 sutural whitish band, a well-defined black vitta reaching from very 

 near the base to the apex. 



Hab. Damaraland. 



Allied to G. velox. Pering.
