Body black. Head lozenge-shaped, elongated posteriorly, as in Raphidia, which gives the 

 animal somewhat of a serpentine aspect, and connected with the prothorax by a rather long neck ; 

 antennae rufous at the base : prothorax fusiform, widest posteriorly, having on each side an oblique 

 basilar furrow : elytra testaceous with two black bands, one in the middle and the other near the 

 apex, which unite at the lateral margin ; their anterior half is striated with punctures : the legs are 

 testaceous, penultimate joint of the tarsi bipartite with very slender lobes. 2

One specimen of this insect was taken in the route from New York to Cumber- 

 land-house, and the other in Lat. 65°. It is nearly related to C. pubescens of De 

 Jean, 3 but it appears distinct. 



2 De Jean fUbi. Supr. i, 170) says that the penultimate joints of the tarsus is filiform, but it is really bipartite, though 

 the lobes into which it is divided are very slender.
