806 R. I. POCOCK 



14. Trog-odcsmus vittatus , sp. n. 



Colour; head piceous, antennae brown with piceous apical 

 segment; the upper surface piceous at the sides, the keels fla- 

 vous and with a large flavous spot in the middle, this spot 

 (except on the l'^*) wider than long, falling short of the hinder 

 margin; a very faint dark longitudinal median stripe; lateral 

 surface piceous ; ventral surface and caudal process testaceous ; 

 legs ochraceous. 



This species is closely allied to the preceding, having the 

 same striolate dorsal surface, the same robust sul)cylindrical form 

 of body, the same strong tubercles on the anal sternite. It dif- 

 fers, however, very markedly in colour as may be seen from 

 the description, and correlated with this is a difference in the 

 form of the keels. These are smaller and more like those of the 

 typical Strongylosoma, having a less distinct anterior border and 

 the posterior border not so strongly angled nor at the posterior 

 end so strongly produced. 



Length about 33 mm.

15. Tx'og'odesniiis iiig-r-esoens , sp. n. 



Colour; upper surface and head almost black , with a very 

 faint paler median dorsal ])and ; antennae, legs, keels, ventral 

 surface and caudal process, ochraceous. 



This species is so closely related to the preceding that a 

 detailed description of it is unnecessary. Associated with the dif- 

 ference of calour, which is very manifest, the keels are a little 

 larger and have their posterior angles more developed. Moreover 

 the sculpturing of the tergites is weaker. 



Length 35, width 5 mm.
