 it also forms an obscure band near the apex ; legs dull testaceous

Basitropis ingratus, 



B. ovato-oblongus, tomentosus, fuscus, lutescente-variegatus ; pedibus

Ovate-oblong, tomentose, dark brown obscurely varied with

 beneath sparingly covered with coarse greyish hairs, abdominal 

 segments with a reddish-brown spot on each side; antennae 

 reddish-brown, slightly tomentose, comparatively slender. Length

Basitropis has hitherto been a stranger to Australia; the two 

 species described above are therefore interesting additions to its 

 scanty list of Anthribidse. 



Basitropis mucidus. 



B. oblongus, piceus, fuscus, obscure griseo-varius ; prothorace basi 

 lateribus rectis. 



Hab. Borneo. 



Oblong, pitchy, with a sparse pubescence sprinkled with dark 

 brown and grey in nearly equal proportions, but everywhere 

 showing the glossy surface beneath ; sides of the prothorax at 

 the base nearly straight; antennse and legs dull ferruginous 

 obscurely varied with grey, the first and second joints of the 

 club as long as they are broad. Nearly allied to B. nitidicutis 

 of M. Jekel, but is much shorter and proportionably stouter. 

 Length 3^ lines.
