For the figure of this species, and the following remarks, I am 

 indebted to Prof. Westwood.* 



[This curious insect differs so much from the other groups of 

 Litcamdcv as to have rendered necessary the establishment of a 

 new genus (a sub-genus) for its reception. Whilst in general 

 aspect it bears a strong resemblance to the large flat Indian 

 Plalyprosopi, Sec, it differs from them all in the 4-jointed clava of 

 its antennaj and dilated sides of the prothorax ; from P. Antceus, 

 Hope, &c., it is distinguisiicd by the structure of the anterior 

 emarginate part of the head, and the peculiar denticulation of the 

 flattened mandibles. From Odontolabis {L. RaJJtcsii, Hope, &c.) 

 it differs in having a spine in the middle of each of the middle 

 and posterior tibia;.

 The present species was described from a specimen then 

 unique in my own collection by the Rev. F. W. Hope, in a paper 

 read to the Society in the yeur 1812, upon several new species of 

 Coleoptera from the Kasyah Hills collected by Dr. Cantor, and 

 until a very recent period did not form jiart of the Hopcian Col- 

 lection ; hence the species was not recorded in I\Ir. Hope's Cata- 

 logue of Lucaniila?. It has, however, been received of later years 

 somewhat abundantly in collections forwarded from the above- 

 named district of India.
