 the fourth as long as the preceding two united, these three 

 joints cylindrical, the fifth and following ones compressed, the five 

 upper ones being thickened aud moderately dilated ; the six 

 upper joints black. Thorax nearly three times as broad as 

 long; sides broadly rounded, sinuate before the middle, the 

 hinder angles obsolete ; disk transversely convex, slightly but 

 broadly depressed and excavated on each side ; nitidous, 

 the central third, the median line excepted, rather closely 

 punctured, sides impunctate ; on each side, but at some dis- 

 tance from the outer margin, is a round • black or nigro- 

 piceous spot. Scutellum clothed with sericeous hairs. Elytra 

 rather broader than the thorax, parallel on the sides ; upper 

 surface transversely convex, not depressed or excavated below 

 the basilar space ; closely and strongly punctured, the interspaces 

 subelevate-reticulate ; each elytron with seven or eight slightly

I possess both sexes of this species from the Andaman

 Calcutta Museum.
