S. Body brilliant black, elytra somewhat bronzed, antennae and legs piceous. The club of the antennae has a rather small basal joint, the apical being as large as the other two con- jointly. Rostrum finely punctured ; head with a few punctures near the eyes, which are rather more prominent than in S. Penicillatus, and more coarsely facetted. Thorax conical, punctulate. The form and sculpture of the elytra are similar to those of S. Penicillatus except the shoulders, which are more produced than... in that species. The fore-femur is sub- dentate, the others strongly toothed, the posterior most so. The sternum bears on each side a conspicuous patch of bright fulvous pubes- cence, the under-side is punctulate. The species, though greatly resembling S. Penicillatus, may be at once distinguished from it by the pectoral pubescence. Length, 3 lines. I obtained two specimens at Whangarei Heads. Nyxetes. Pascoe. Antenme as long as head and thorax, inserted near the middle of rostrum ; scape slender, incrassated apically, and reaching to behind the eye ; funiculus six-jointed, basal joint largest, elongate-obconical ; second longer than third, slender at the base, dilated towards its apex ; third longer than those which follow, sub-cylindrical, rather stouter than second ; fourth small, moniliform ; fifth and sixth, each a little broader than the immediately preceding joints ; club large, oviform.
