PaneluS, gen. nov. This genus is established for the reception of a small species in many respects similar to a species of Scatinus and Sap/iobius. Body somewhat ovate; terminal joint of max- illary palpi elongate; the mentum small and distinctly in- cised anteriorly; the head, eyes visible from above, clypeus bidentate on the anterior edge, frontal suture invisible, lateral edge minutely notched ; the jnesosternum pointed anteriorly ; the thorax, anterior angles largely excavated for the recep- tion of the antennal clubs ; the legs, anterior tibias feebly dilated apically, apex without tarsal grooves, intermediate and posterior tibiae bent, not dilated towards the tarsi, ante- rior tarsi very short. In the figure the tarsi are drawn a little too long; the figure represents the form of the inter- mediate tarsus, which, like the hind tarsus, is stout at the base.
