Bodij black ; anteiinm piceous, dull honey-yel- 
low towards the tip, distinctly compressed 
joints, in nroiile, a little narrowed to the base : 
palpi piceous, not at all securiform, terminal 
joint less dilated at tip than that of the preceding 
joint : thorax with a slight peaiiaceous reflection, 
rather narrower at tip than at base ; lateral mar- 
gin depressed, punctured, gradually reflected to 
the edge, which is but little arquated ; posterior 
angles rectangular ; disk impunctured ; dorsal 
line well indented ; basal lines two on each side, 
punctured within, deeply impressed, the exteri- 
or one very short ; elytra brownish-black, some- 
what iridescently pearlaceous ; strim deeply in- 
dented, impunctured : scutellar stria short, but 
definite : interstitial spaces convex ; third three- 
punctured, first puncture near the base on the 
third stria, second on the middle on the second 
stria, third towards the tip also on the second 
stria : beneath piceous ; sides very distinctly and 
numerously punctured. 
Length half an inch. 
I obtained this fine species a few days since 
under an old log. It does not at all agree with 
either of the descriptions of Dejean. The labrum 
is not emarginate. The terminal joint of the pal- 
pi is less dilated towards the tip than that of the
