Telenica subfasciata, sp.nov. 



Picea, antennis pedibusque subferrugineis ; squamis fuscis 

 cinereis et obscure aurantiacis intermixtis dense vestita ; 

 octilis sat raagnis minus depressis ; prothorace vermiculato- 

 riiguloso, antice sat angustato, lateribus sat fortiter rotuii- 

 datis, longitudine latitudini aequali ; eljtris subovatis quaui 

 prothorax sat latioribus, punctulato-striatis, interstitiis sat 

 latis subconvexis. [Long. 2f, lat. 1 line. 



The cinereous scales have a slight greenish tone about the sides 

 of the elytra. On the rostrum and underside the scales are almost 

 entirely cinereous ; on the prothorax the cinereous scales may be 

 regarded as the groundcolour, and the fuscous scales as forming 

 a large obscure dorsal spot occupying almost the whole width at 

 the base and with its sides arcuately converging to a point on the 

 front margin ; on the elytra the fuscous scales form the ground- 

 colour, the dull orange scales clothe the suture, and the front part 

 of the alternate interstices and the cinereous scales form two 

 indistinct fasciae, which are joined on the lateral margin a little in 

 front of the middle, whence one of them runs obliquely forward 

 towards the scutelluo), and the other obliquely hind ward. Each 

 interstice bears a row of fine semi-erect setse, the individual setae 

 being of two colours, fuscous and whitish. 



The prothorax not wider than long will separate this species 

 from the previously described members of the genus.

Proxyrus gibbicollis, sp.nov. 



(J. Niger, squamis cinereis fuscisque intermixtis vestitus ; 

 rostro supra longitudinaliter concavo, parte concava carina 

 mediana longitudinali instructa ; prothorace valde gibboso 

 (quam P. lecideosi, Pasc. multo magis fortiter), utrinque ante 

 medium fere tuberculatim tumido quam elytra latiori, sparsim 

 punctulato ; elytris punctulato-striatis, ad basin recurvis et 

 mox pone basin transversim leviter impressis, ad apicem 

 truncatis.
