penultimate abdominal segment is not broader than the preceding,

Length l±i mm. ; width 5J mm. 



Hab. Transvaal (Eustenburg).

Plate XLL, fig. 68. 



Ferruginous ; clypeus blunt in front but strongly rounded laterally 

 and covered, like the head, with closely set scabrose punctures a 

 little broader than in S. mediastina, the clypeal carina is arcuate 

 as in the last-named species but is shorter transversely ; prothorax 

 very strongly serrate laterally, not very closely scabroso-punctate 

 along the anterior part, and irregularly punctured on the discoidal 

 and posterior part, these punctures are somewhat deep and the 

 intervals between them are slightly raised, the supra-basal 

 transverse fold is very plain ; scutellum almost impunctate ; elytra 

 covered with minutely setigerous punctures, somewhat deep and 

 separated from each other by a space wider than their own diameter ; 

 pygidium with small, scattered punctures ; abdominal segments 

 vaguely punctured ; pectus sub-villose ; tarsi long, upper part of 

 the claw very long and curved, lower short and not much curved ; 

 penultimate abdominal segment not broader than the one preceding, 

 last segment very little swollen. 



Length 12 mm. ; width 6 mm.

SCHIZONYCHA GONAQUA, n. Spec. 



Ferruginous-red, club of antennae flavescent, clypeus semi- 

 circular laterally from the sharp basal angle to the median anterior 

 part which is briefly sinuate, frontal carina strongly arcuate, clypeal 

 suture discernible only in the median part, clypeus and frontal part 

 deeply punctured, space behind the basal carina smooth ; pro- 

 thorax ampliated laterally past the median part, and rounded thence 

 towards the basal angle, outer margin finely serrulate, and nor- 

 mally fimbriate ; the surface is covered in the anterior part with 

 scabrose, closely set punctures, a little less scattered and non- 

 scabrose in the posterior discoidal part, in the centre there is a not 

 very distinct longitudinal smooth band, and the supra-basal, 

 impunctate folds are very plain ; scutellum punctate laterally ; 

 elytra elongate, but distinctly sinuate below the humeral part, and
