. Coleoptera. Vol. I. [Longicornia. Part I.]. Beetles; Cerambycidae. so strongly narrowed ; eyes of moderate size, finely facetted, rounded and entire; front small; clypeus large, limited above by t\\ o -convergent sutural lines ; labrum large ; last joint of palpi slightly triangular; gula with distinct mentigerous process. Antenna? inserted in small approximated tubercles, in a line with the lower border of the eyes and at as great a distance from the eyes as from one another; much shorter than the body, with cylindrical joints, the first barely extending past the hind border of the eye, the third and fourth subequal, each shorter than the first or fifth, fifth to tenth subequal. Prothorax slightly longer than its width at the base, strongly constricted and transversely grooved near the apex, laterally and acutely projecting at the apex ; marked with a shallo^A^ transverse groove near the base. Scutellum rather large, triangular. Elytra much broader than the prothorax, widened a little behind the shouldei-s, then gradually and slightly narrowed posteriorly; each broadly and subsinuately truncate nt the apex, armed with a spine behind the ^^ shoulder at the point where the width of the elytra is greatest. Legs long, the hind femora extending by nearly one-fourth of their length past the apex of the elytra ; first joint of hind tarsus almost as long as the second and thii-d united ; third deeply cleft. Front coxae almost contiguous, the intercoxal process very narrow; their acetabula widely open posteriorly. 74. Ehondia pugnax, Dokm. Leptura (Capnolymma ?) puguax, Dokm, Stett. ent. Zeit. xxxix, p. 459 (1878). Straw-yellow, glossy: the antennae, tibise, tarsi, the dorsal borders of the femora, and the posthumeral'spines of the elytra black. Head impressed with a fine median line along the vertex and front, the sides finely and sparsely punctate, the vertex with two slight tubercular elevations followed by a median de- pression near where the short neck
