^256 CRYI'TOLAEMUS ENGELHARD!. 



A species found in India, Java, etc. - There are several 

 specimens. 



Exochomus nigromaculatus , Goeze. 

 One of the most widely distributed of Coleoptera. — 

 Six specimens. 



Cryptolmmus ') Engelhardi , sp. n. 



Orbiculatus sat convexus, rufotestaceus , elytris cferuleis 

 distincte crebre punctatis, apice singulis macula testacea; 

 capite ifemince'i), pectore, abdomine, tibiis intermedns pe- 

 dibusque posticis nigrescentibus. — Long. 'ó\ millim. 9? 



Mas? capite rufo, basi prope oculos tantum nigrescente. 



Four species of Cryptolcemus are described. The type, 

 a Montrouzieri Muls., is an Australian species. The three 

 others are from New Guinea and the Molucca Islands. Of 

 the present species two specimens , closely agreeing except in 

 the colour of the head, have been sent, and I think this 

 is due either to variation or it may be a sexual character. 

 The punctuation of the head and thorax is very fine and 

 scarcely visible, that of the elytra quite distinct and rarely 

 confluent.
