404 MARTIN .TACOP.Y 



Hah. Pniiglioning-Pisang. 



Of tlie sanie coloration as the preceding species Ijut iinicli 

 more rounded and broad in shape and the sculpturing of the 

 upper parts quite different. A single specimen. 



32. Aulexis sumatrana, n. sp. — Fuscous, breast piceous, head 

 and thorax ])lack, closely pulx'scent and finely punctured, elytra 

 fulvous, closely and strongly puncturc^l anteriorly, more finely 

 so posteriorly and pubescent. 



Length 3 V2 lines. 



Head finely pubescent , the hairs long and grey, the vertex 

 finely, the clypeus strongly punctured , its anterior margin 

 straight , with two pointed teeth , labrum fulvous , eyes large , 

 widely separated, antennae fulvous, not extending to the middle 

 of tlie elytra, the third joint one half longer than the second 

 one, the fourth as long as the two preceding joints together, 

 terminal joints slightly shorter and thicker; thorax one half 

 broader than long , the sides with three very small teeth , the 

 surface with a shallow transverse depression near tlie base, the 

 latter rather strongly, the anterior portion very finely punctured, 

 clothed with long grey pubescence; scutellum subquadrate, its 

 apex broadly truncate ; elytra fulvous, without basal depression, 

 closely and strongly punctured, especially so near the base and 

 at the sides, breast and legs rather darker, the first joint of the 

 anterior tarsi not longer than the second one. 



Hah. Pangherang-Pisang. 



This is a, larger sized species than A. nigricoUis, Baly and 

 differs from that species in the finely not coarsely punctured 

 head and thorax, the ])lack colour of the head and the want 

 of an elytral depression. There is only a single , apparently 

 female specimen before me; from A. Wallace^ Baly the species 

 may be at once distinguished by the strong punctuation of the 

 elytra. 



33. Aulexis Wallace!, Paly. — ()])tained at Si-Panilx' and 

 Pangherang-Pisang; some of the specimens are however only 

 half the size of the others but ! am not al)le to separate 

 them.
