Ovate, convex, dark fulvous, the terminal joints of the antennae and the legs 

 black, thorax very finely punctured, the disc lilack, the sides fulvous, elytra finely 

 and more remotely punctured, black, margined with fulvous.

Head very finely and remotely j)unctur<(l at tlie vertex, the lower portion more 

 closely punctate, terminal joint of i)a]iii ovat(^, antennae very short, only extending 

 to the base of the thorax, the three or four lower joints fulvous, the rest black, 

 terminal joints transverse but moderately so ; thorax strongly transverse, of the 

 same shape as in the preceding species, very finely and rather closely punctured, 

 the sides a little more strongly and closely punctate than the disc, the lateral 

 margin more broadly, the anterior one very narrowly fulvous, the rest black; 

 scutellum black, much broader tliau long, with a few fine punctures; elytra more

 black; legs black; claws bifid; anterior coxal cavities closed; the male organ 

 broad, somewhat spade-shaped, its apex broadly rounded. 



Uab. Kuilu. 



Very closely allied to the preceding species, but smaller, the antennae less 

 strongly dilated and their basal three or four joints fulvous only, the thorax more 

 closely and less strongly punctured at the sides, the colour of the typical form also 

 different as well as the shape of the male organ. 



Lygaria scutellata sp. nov. 



Fulvous, antennae, the basal joint excej)ted, the sides of the breast, the legs 

 and the disc of the thorax, black, the latter rather closely punctured, elytra 

 very strongly ]iunctured, the lateral margin and a triangular iiuirk, surrDundinLr 

 the scutellum, fulvous. 



Length 2J lines. 



Head rather strongly but not closely punctured, fulvous, antennae extending
