clavatis ; thorace sphserico, elytris latiori ; pedibus ro- 
bustis, tibiis compressis ; elytris linea abbreviata obliqua 
flexuosa maculaque communi triangular! flavis, triente 
apical! griseo-sericea.

Sub-fam. Tillomoephin^. 
Genus Epeopetes, nov. gen. 
Corpus lineare, longe pilosum. Caput supra planum, 
tubera antennifera obsoleta. Oculi reniformes. An- 
tennae lineares, longe pilosae; S corpore multo longi- 
ores, articulo tertio elongate, caeteris subaequalibus ; ? 
corpore breviores, articulis 8-11 multo abbreviatis. 
Thorax longissimus, elytris aequalis, inermis, ante basin 
valde late constrictus, quasi pedunculatus, parte antica 
valde convexa. Elytra curta, depressa, apice obtuse 
ro tun data. Pedes curti, longe pilosi; femora clavata; 
tarsi breves, articulo prime secundo et tertio conjunctis 
longiori. Acetabula intermedia extus clausa. 
The species on which this genus is founded was placed 
by White in the genus Ozodes, with which it has no near 
affinity whatever, and scarcely any external resemblance. 
It is evidently a member of the sub-fam. Tillomorphince, 
aud is allied to the Australian genus Ipomoria; differing 
chiefly in the extreme relative length of the thorax and 
in the length and proportions of the antennal joints.
