LANGURIIDAE 363 



luiis. chini quinque-arliculata prolhorace quadralo subcordato , mi- 

 nute punctulalo fere laevi , elytris disimele ac forliter punclalo- 

 slriatis, humeris partem elevalis, apicibus Iruncalis. — Long. 8 

 millim. 



Hab. New Guinea, Dorey, Batchian (Wallace). 



This insect is so similar to Languria atrocyaiua, Har. with 

 the type of which now before me I compare it as readily to be 

 confused with it. That insect however has coarse eyes, and per- 

 tains to my genus Caenolanguria. A. haroldi has the eyes very 

 finely facetted. The antennae have the joints from the second 

 to the sixth elongate, whereas in L. alrocyanea, they are short. 

 The thorax is as long as wide in the widest part, the sides are 

 sinuate, and narrower at the base than in front, the striola is 

 represented by a triangular pit, and the antescutellar lobe is 

 strongly punctured, the disk is minutely but quite distinctly 

 punctulate; the scutellum is flat and impunctate. 



The elytra are dark steel-blue , the striae are composed of 

 lines of almost confluent linear punctures , the suturai stria is 

 rather deeply impressed at the base and has the punctures there 

 quite confluent, the subhumeral stria is very deeply impressed, 

 the interstices are smooth ; the apex is quite distinctly truncate 

 and sub-mucronate externally. 



This insect is also very similar in colour to L. picea, Har. 

 and to L. nigroaenea, Crotch. But the fine eyes and truncate 

 elytra, are sufficient for its diagnosis, apart from the other ge- 

 neric characters. 



There are two specimens from Dorey and one from Batchian 

 in my collection.

 (XXXVI), 1896, p. 272. 



Hab. Sumatra, Pangherang Pisang (Modigliani). 



Two examples taken by E. Modigliani in 1890-181)1, ab- 

 solutely agree with the species described by me from Burma. 

 They have dark blue elytra, more parallel than those of A. ga- 

 galieeps, and the thorax has a black mark on the front margin, 

 not very well defined and angular behind.
