Elongated, black, little shining ; head and prothorax closely punc- 

 tured ; elytra very long and ovate, convex, closely covered with 

 short granules more acute behind, and with the back-ground finely 

 shagreened ; each elytron has two dorsal very faint raised lines, and a 

 very acute and much raised line close to the suture which is also 

 slightly raised ; epipleuras broad and granulose. 



A very distinct species. 

 Recorded from Walfish Bay (Damaraland), ? Ovampoland.*

227. Z. htpocrttAa spec. nov. 



Nigia, sub-nitida, capite prothoraceque aciculatis ; elytris ovalibus, 

 sub-convexis, postice acuminatis, sub-rugosis, in singulo tri-costulatis ; 

 epipleuris vage granosis. 



Long. 7-8, lat. 4-.5 mm . 



Black, moderately shining ; head and prothorax aciculated ; elytra 

 ovate, moderately convex, acuminated behind, rugose in the anterior 

 part, granulose past the middle and with three moderately raised lines 

 slightly undulating towards the apex on each elytron ; epipleuras 

 slightly granulose, legs dark-red. 



The general facies is not unlike that of Onychosis gracilipes. Deyr., 

 but it is more convex. It forms evidently a link between this genus 

 and Zophosis.
