PHYTOPHAGOUS COLEOPTERA FROM NEW GUINEA 48/ 



apex both places of which are flattened and limited above by a 

 costalike line. 



22. Sutrea Icevipennis, sp. n. 



Flavous, the head and thorax impunctate, elytra black, shi- 

 ning and impunctate, the base with a shallow depression, legs 

 liavous. 



Length 4 millim. 



Head entirely impunctate, Havous, the frontal elevations elon- 

 gate and pointed anteriorly, antennae not extending to the mid- 

 dle of the elytra, tlavous, the third and fourth joint equal, fol- 

 lowing joints slightly longer, thorax about twice as broad as 

 long, of the same shape as the preceding species, transversely 

 subquadrate and convex, impunctate, scutellum flavous, elytra 

 with a shallow but distinct depression below the base, black, 

 entirely impunctate, below and the legs flavous, the abdomen 

 stained with piceous at the sides, presternum very narrow but 

 distinct. 



Dilo. 



On account of the impunctate elytra which have only extre- 

 mely narrow lateral reflexed margins and the flavous legs, I 

 must separate this species from the preceding ones, there is also 

 a difference in the width of the prosternum which is distinctly 

 visible; there are two specimens before me. 



23. Aplatlnoiia, Ibieoloi-ata, sp. n. 



Testaceous, the labrum, antennae (the basal joints excepted) 

 and the posterior femora black, thorax subquadrate, impunctate, 

 elytra not perceptibly ])unctured, testaceous, the suture narrowly 

 or more broadly, black. 



Mas. Upper surface shining. 



Fern. The elytra opaque, the thorax shining. 



Length 3-3 V2 millim. 



Of oblong-ovate shape, the head impunctate, testaceous, fron- 

 tal elevations transverse, linear, clypeus rather broad, triangular.
