Antennae black with joints 3-6 flavescent. 
Surface of elytra pale yellow but occasionally also orange-yellow ; 
on each side are a supra-humeral black spot, three ante-median 
ones disposed transversely, two strongly sinuate dentate some- 
what narrow black bands ; the apical angle is also black (pi. xxiv., 
fig. 85) groendali. 
The same, but the humeral black spot and the three anterior 
ones are reduced to a mere dot ; the posterior band is interrupted 
in the centre (pi. xxiv., fig. 86) var. extrema. 
Basal part yellow for about one-third of the whole length, and 
with a humeral small patch and a juxta-sutural spot of the black 
background showing through ; the post-median band is plainly 
sinuate, the apical one is transverse, and both are red (pi. xxiv., 
fig. 87) quadrifasciata. 
A\ Elytra with longitudinal bands and spots. 
Elytra each with a longitudinal dorsal and a lateral yellow or orange- 
yellow band reaching from the base to past the middle, and two 
or three patches in the posterior part ; upper side with a dense, very 
short silky pubescence : 
Dorsal band reaching slightly past the middle, three distinct, round 
patches ; tibiae black (pi. xxiv., fig. 88) trifurca. 
Dorsal band reaching to four-fifths of the length, a posterior 
marginal transverse patch and a supra- apical one ; tibiae black 
(pi. xxiv., fig. 89) exclamationis . 
Dorsal band reaching the supra-apical patch, or not ; the posterior 
marginal patch small, slightly transverse ; femora and tibiae flavous 
(pi. xxiv. , fig. 90) phalerata.

Black, clothed on the under side, head and prothorax with a dense, 
erect, black pubescence ; antennae black, the five apical joints with a 
somewhat silky sheen, inner part of the intermediate joints moderately 
sharply acuminate at the tip ; head and prothorax very closely scrobiculate 
punctate, frontal part with a short median line, prothorax with no distinct 
one ; elytra elongated, strongly shagreened and with the yellow patches or 
bands roughly and somewhat closely punctate ; each bears a basal dorsal 
band curving outwardly into a lunule and reaching to about one-fifth of 
the length, and an elongated lateral band ; at about the median part is a
