15. Trachycormocephalus indiae sp. nov. (PI. XVII, figs. 8-10). 

 Brown ; with a somewhat obscure slightly greenish dark median 



longitudinal band along the dorsum, the band being about one-third 

 the total width of plates ; each plate with a narrow stripe of much 

 deeper greenish color along caudal margin, this being the width of 

 the longitudinal band ; the longitudinal band widens across the first 

 plate and embraces the entire head which is distinctly greenish in 

 color. Antennae green. Legs testaceous, the last pair tinged with 

 green. 



Head subcordate, conspicuously narrowed cephalad. Smooth, not 

 punctate ; a distinct transverse furrow a little in front of the caudal 

 margin ; on each side a V-shaped impression with apex at transverse 

 furrow, the inner arm extending a little distance cephalad parallel 

 with its fellow of the opposite side and the outer arms diverging 

 ectocephalad ; two short submedian parallel longitudinal furrows be- 

 tween the V-shaped impressions ; all these impressions rather weak. 



Antennae composed of 18 articles. Short, reaching to or a little 

 caudad of the middle of the third pediferous segment. The 3-5 prox- 

 imal articles nearly glabrous ; the fifth to seventh or eighth somewhat 

 intermediate; the others fully clothed. 



Dental plates of prosternum long, each bearing 4 distinct, subacute 

 teeth or with a small fifth tooth at mesal end. Of these teeth the 

 most ectal is a little more widely removed than the others are from 

 each other, the latter being more or less fused at bases. Line setting 

 off dental plates subsemicircular. 



Dorsal plates from the third to the twentieth inclusive longitudinally 

 bisulcate, the sulci all complete and distinct. Only the twenty-first 

 plate distinctly margined. 



Last dorsal plate with caudal margin subsemicircular or bow-shaped. 

 With a distinct and complete median longitudinal sulcus. 



Ventral plates from the second to the twentieth inclusive bisulcate ; 

 otherwise nearly smooth.
