LONGICORN COLEOFTERA FROM BURMA 51 



articuUs 5°, 7" ^"-que fere totis el apicibus celerorum (\^ et 2° 

 exceptis) fuscis. Long. 15 mm. 



Two examples ; one taken at Palon in Pegu , the other at 

 Garin (Gheba). 



Pubescence greyish, somewhat paler on the underside of the 

 body. Head with a median impressed glabrous black line ; with 

 two velvety black lines which extend from the thorax down- 

 wards between the antennary tubercles , slightly diverging in 

 their course, and becoming obliterated on the front of the head; 

 with a short velvety black vitta on each side above behind the 

 upper lobe of the eye. Prothorax somewhat sparsely punctured 

 above, with a median dorsal fuscous vitta, and with two velvety 

 black spots, narrowly margined with cinereous, which are placed 

 one on either side of the anterior part of the disk ; with a small 

 longitudinal black spot placed somewhat anteriorly and low 

 down on each side. Scutellum fuscous. Elytra strongl} enough, 

 but not very thickly punctured , adorned with numerous lines 

 and about eight small spots of a velvety black colour, and with 

 five white spots. Of the black spots three are placed along each 

 outer margin, and two posteriorly on the suture. Of the white 

 spots, one is placed somewhat dorsally on each elytron a little 

 in front of the middle, another smaller and less distinct behind 

 the middle, while the fifth is on the suture and just in front 

 of the anterior of tlie two suturai black spots. Legs and under- 

 side of body grey, with some fuscous points and spots; abdo- 

 minal segments fringed with pale fulvous-grey posteriorly. Pro- 

 sternal process strongly arched , declivous behind ; mesosternal 

 process vertical in front, feebly tubercled near the lower ante- 

 rior border. Antennae (c/") about one half longer than the body, 

 ciliate underneath , the ciliae being more densely aggregated 

 and blackish in colour beneath the fifth and the apex of the 

 third joint. 



This rather pretty species may be easily recognized by its 

 peculiar markings which I have described above in some detail.
