Hab. Soekaranda. 



A little larger and rather more elongate thaii M. orfo- 

 pustulata Gorh. This insect is at once distinguished from il by 

 the absence of the thoracic yellow spots; there is however no other 

 species at present knoMn to me which has two red .spots near 

 the Shoulder. The head is very sparsely impressed with small 

 points, -vvhich are thicker and coarser upon the epistome; the 

 antennae have their third Joint as long as the two basal ones, 

 and half as long again as the fourth, the 4"' to the 1^^ are 

 equal in length, longer than broad and fusiform, the 8*^ is a 

 little shorter, the club is pubescent and oblong, its basal Joint
