Ce?niostotna Wailesella. xipparently common among Genista 

 tinctoria, in meadows. 



Bucculafrix maritima. Most abundant in salt-marshes. Some- 

 times the tiny white-ribbed cocoons may be seen on almost every blade 

 of the wiry grass which grows among the Aster in the mud. 



Although this list is fairly long, it must not be taken to imply 

 that Tineina are well represented here ; the contrary is the fact. The 

 company may be select, but it certainly is not numerous, and the 

 number of usually common species which here seem to be rare or 

 absent, is really extraordinary. Perhaps this is only what may bo 

 expected on the mountain lime-stone.

NEW GENEEA AND SPECIES OF LONGICORN COLEOPTERA. 



BY H. W. BATES, F.L.S. 



CXKTOaNATHUS PLAJflCOLLIS, n. Sp. 



Ohlongus, minus convexus, niger, suhnitidus, suhtiliter coriaceus : capite antice 

 verticali ; mandibulis apicem versus dilatatis ; thorace valde transversali, piano, 

 subtilissime jyunctulato, laterihus anticis fortiter hispinosis, angulo jyosiico etiam 

 dentato, acuto ; eJytris apice ad suturam breviter spinosis, supra subtiliter pitnctulatis 

 et obsolete bicosiatis : pedibus gracilibus, femorihus tibiisque subtus denticulato- 

 asperatis, tarsoruni articulo penuUimo anguste bilobo. 



$. Antenna} corpori longitudine cBquales,\2-articulatcB, articulo S'" valde elong- 

 ato, lineari, compresso, articulis 3 — 5 subtus denticulatis, 3 — 11 apice incrassatis, et 

 extus paiilo productis. Long. 18 lin. 



Northern Borneo (Mr. Everett). 



Nearest allied to C. granulosus (Thorns. ),\>ui much smaller and 

 less convex, with thorax still flatter on the disc. The mandibles also 

 are quite different in shape, being gradually dilated from the base to 

 the hooked apex, and plane above. The penultimate tarsal joint has 

 in 31. granulosus rounded lobes, but in C. planicollis, narrow and 

 pointed lobes, more so than in C. forficaius. The third antennal joint 

 is greatly elongated, and beneath denticulated, in both species, but in C. 

 planicollis it has (with the much shorter 4th joint) the further pecu- 

 liarity of being flattened. 



HOPLIDEEES NTASSiE, n. Sp. 



Late ohlongus, parallelogrammicus, supra opacus, ^ fulvo-casfaneus, $ niger: 

 capite grosse ret iculato-punctato ; thorace lato, transversim quadrato, laterihus fere 

 ut in n. Bpinipcnne acute 5-spinosis ; elytris alutaceo-opacis, et subtiliter creherrime 

 punctulatis, hasi grossius ititricato-punctatis, laterihus infra humeros paulo serraiis, 

 apice ad suturam simplicibus : corpore subtus fere nudo, alutaceo-punctulato. 



AntenncB maris corpore paulo longiores ; articulis linearibus, apice hand spinosis, 

 sparsim punetatis : fmmince corpore triente hreviores. Long. 18 lin.
