Rostrum compressed and raised between the antennae and the base; 
punctate-rugulose. Forehead as broad as the rostrum, subeven, 
punctate-rugulose. Head transversely strigose-rugulose. Thorax 
narrow, subconic, longer than broad, transversely strigose, with two 
transverse impressions, one ante-median, the other post-median, obsolete 
in the middle; posterior angles acute. Elytra lengthwise subflat unto 
near the apex, then obliquely declive, little convex transversely; 
inflexed part perpendicular, at almost right angle to the disk; punctures 
from the base to the two-thirds foveiform, then to the apex much 
smaller, substriate, as well as the whole of the sutural and marginal; 
interstices where the punctures are foveiform transversely subrugiform, 
irregular, but posteriorly regular, everywhere finely punctulate. Body 
beneath and pygidium finely punctulate. Pilosity scarce on the upper 
part of the body and legs, denser underneath and on the posterior 
part of the elytra. 
Named after my obliging friend, Mr. Adam White, whose entomo¬ 
logical reputation is universal. 
Genus EUOPS, Sch . 
The scutellum in this genus is not subtriangular, as Schonherr 
states, but subquadrate, as indicated on Guerin’s plate (Icon. Begn. 
Anim. tab. 36, fig. 4: Attelabus falcatus ), except that its size is ex¬ 
aggerated, for that organ is—relatively to the other groups of Attelabidce 
—rather small. The rostrum is abruptly deflexed, perpendicularly to 
the head, very much straightened at the base, triangularly ampliate to 
the apex, short. 
To this genus, formerly containing one single species, I propose to 
add some others extremely allied to the Schonherrian type, but, 
nevertheless, differing in a few instances; and the only parts of that
