(the basal Joiiils excepted; the apex of the tibiae and the tarsi, 

 fuscous, thoi-ax transversely sulcate, inipunotate, elytra finely 

 pubescent, extremely closely punctured , fuscous , the base nar- 

 rowly fulvous. 



Var. Klytra Havous, the siiles more or less fuscous. 



Length 2 lines. 



Narrowly elongate, the head broad and convex Itehind the 

 eyes, fulvous shining, impunctate, e^es rather large, frontal tu- 

 bercles trigona te , clypeus triangularly i-aised , labrum nearly 

 black, palpi Havous, the pemdtimate joint incrassate , antennae 

 long and slender, fuscous, the basal three joints Havous, the 

 first joint rather long and curved, the second very short, the 

 iliii'd nearly doulde as long, fourth joint slightly longer than 

 the following joints, thorax nari'owdy transverse, the disc trans- 

 versely sulcate, impunctate, shining, liavous, elytra very finely 

 and closely jmnctureil , clothed with short whitish pubescence . 

 the basal portion more or less fiavous, the rest fuscous, elytral 

 epipleurae scarcely visible at the base only, legs slender, flavous. 

 tibiae unarmed, the first joint of the posterior tarsi longer than 

 the following joints together, claws appendiculate, anterior coxal 

 cavities open. 



Hab. Si-Rambé. 



Closely allied to P. janniu, .lac. ])Ut differing in the black 

 labrum, the colour of the elytra and in the longer metatarsus 

 of the posterior legs, in one specimen the scutellum is black. 



10(S. Mimastra sumatrensis, Jac. — I refer specimens obtained 

 at Panghorang-Pisang to this species (Notes Leyd. Mus. Vol. VI). 

 I have not now the type l)efore me, but my description agrees 

 in everything except in that of the length of the antennae, 

 which in the type, is given as " nearly as long as the body' : 

 in the present insects the antennae in the male extend conside- 

 rably beyond the elytra, those of the females slightly so; the 

 elytra are very finely and closely punctured l)ut scarcely rugose 

 as in the type and it is thendbre })Ossible that I have another 

 closely allied species before me. the (Mitire ins(>ct is of a uniform 

 pale testaceous colour.
