The genital armature is of the same type as that of S. fatidica, but 

 the right branch is more sinuate outwardly. 

 Length 15-16 mm. ; width 7-8J mm.

Colour, size, and shape of S. caffra, the description of which 

 applies very well to the present species, except for the claws of the 

 tarsi of the male, the only sex known to me. The anterior claws are 

 of the same shape as those of S. caffra, i.e., they are divaricating and 

 cleft at the tip, the upper tooth is not deeply cleft, is very slender and 

 shorter than the lower, and those of the intermediate and posterior 

 legs have the same shape, instead of the upper one being very long 

 and as robust as the lower, which is short and of equal width. The 

 genital armature is also slightly different in shape from that of 

 S. caffra, and is very much like that of S. fatidica.

SCHIZONYCHA INCEETA, n. Spec, 



Plate XLYL, fig. 54. 



Elongate, pale testaceous, but with the head and prothorax some- 

 what brownish, and both covered with closely set, squamiform, 

 greyish hairs springing from the punctures, the elytra have similar 

 hairs, which are not, however, quite so densely set ; clypeus rounded 

 in the anterior part in the male, blunter but not emarginate in the 

 female, covered with deep punctures, the clypeal carina is sharp, and 

 so is the basal one, the space behind the latter is impunctate ; pro- 

 thorax ampliate laterally slightly past the median part, and only a 

 little more diagonally narrowed thence towards the anterior angle 

 than towards the basal one, covered w T ith deep punctures separated 

 from each other by a space equal to their own diameter, but finer 

 and more closely set on the sides, above the basal part there is on 

 each side a conspicuously impunctate, shining, transverse fold ; 

 scutellum as closely punctured as the discoidal part of the pro- 

 thorax ; elytra elongated, plainly sinuate laterally at about one-third 

 of the length, and a little ampliated there, covered with deep 

 punctures less closely set than on the prothorax, being separated 

 from each other by a space broader than their own diameter ; basal 

 part of propygidium, pygidium and abdomen moderately closely 

 punctured with the punctures squamiferous as on the upper side ;
