Hab. Malacca. Coll. de Castelnau, Mniszech et Parry. 

 Another rare species from the Malay peninsula, recently dis- 

 covered by Count de Castelnau, allied to O.Ludek'mgii, but 

 abundantly distinct ; the head is smaller and less coarsely punc- 

 tured, whilst the body, of a deeper orange colour, is marked by a 

 large black plaga, extending from the base to near the apex ; 

 whereas in 0. Ludekingii there exists only a broad sutural black line. 

 I have dedicated it to my friend T. V. WoUaston, Esq., the well- 

 known author of '* Insecta Maderensia."

 mandibulis brevibus, intus irregulariter et fortiter dentatis ;

 acutis, lateribus pone medium spina acuta armatis ; elytris 

 laevissimis, aurantiacis, basi prope scutellum suturaque anguste 

 nigris ; tibiis anticis 5-spinosis, quatuor posticis inermibus.

Ilab. Cambodia, Siam. Specimen unicum in Coll. Castelnau. 

 This species is dedicated to the memory of the late M. Mouhot, 

 to whom we are indebted for many new and rare species from the 

 same locality: whilst attempting to explore the unhealthy districts 

 of Cochin China he fell a victim to the climate.
