LIST OF THE PHYTOPHAGOUS COLEOPTERA 



OBTAINED BY MR. H. RAAP IN THE BATU ISLANDS 



WITH DESCRIPTIONS OF THE NEW SPECIES 



BY MARTIN JACOBY 



Dr. Gestro has submitted to me for examination a small 

 number of Phytophaga from Batu islands, to the west of Sumatra, 

 from which to my knowledge no previous insects of this group 

 have been described ; most of these are identical with those 

 found in Sumatra but a few seem to be new. 



CRIOCERINAE. 



1. Lema monstrosa, Baly. — Trans, ent. Soc. Lond. I860, p 16. 

 Originally described from Borneo^ the specimens obtained at 



Batu only differ from the type in having the base of the elytra 

 to a small extend fulvous, in the Bornean specimens they are 

 entirely black. 



EUMOLPINAE. 



2. Rhyparida pinguis, Baly. — Trans, ent. Soc. Lond. 1865, 

 p. 209. Hab. Borneo. 



3. Nodostoma acutangulum, .Jac. — Novitates Zoologie. Vol. I, 

 p. 284. Hab. Sumatra.

Specimens from Batu vary in the colour of the elytra and 

 have more or less fulvous coloured legs.
