LONGJCORN COLEOPTERA FROM BURMA 35 



This species, which was founded upon a specimen from the 

 mountains of Sumatra, appears to be common in the hilly dis- 

 tricts of North India. I have seen many examples from Assam, 

 and a large series from Mungphu in Sikkim, In t^'e Sumatran 

 example, figured by Ritsema, the elytral spots seem to be of 

 much less than the average size. The few examples from Burma 

 that 1 have seen may be regarded as constituting a variety, 

 characterized by the distinct, though by no means strong, tu- 

 berculation of the mesosternum. The elytral spots in this variety 

 form seven irregular transverse series. 1 have noticed a tendency 

 towards a tuberculation of tlie mesosternum in some of the 

 North Indian examples; so that I am inclined to believe that 

 we have here a single variable species , rather than two or 

 three distinct, though closely allied, forms.

Head with a rather narrow triangular cleft between the an- 

 xennal tubercles; the front sub-rectangular, and ahuost perfectly 

 flat ; the lower lobes of the eyes rather small , not reaching 

 more than half way to the base of the mandibles. Prothorax 

 with a small conical tubercle, having a broad base, at the middle 

 of each side ; dark brown, with the base and two longitudinal 

 vittae on each side above fulvous-pubescent; with a similar 

 fulvous vitta placed very low down on each side. Elytra 

 thickly but not strongly punctured ; dark brown, with numerous 

 small pubescent spots of a fulvous colour, which are irregularly 

 scattered, and, in places (especially towards the apex), have a 

 tendency to run togetlier, thus forming small patches. Body
