156 COELOPIIORA. 



Coelophora Wallacii, sp. n. 



Suborbicular, ricli orange, opaque ; thorax broad, slightly 

 sinuate before the anterior angles; scutelhuu rather small, elytra 

 sparsely and lightly punctured, surface alutaceous, with the sutural 

 margin and a diseoidal vitta reaching from the callus to near the 

 apex, black; the sutural border narrowing to a point before and 

 behind, the vitta subparallel, or strangled in the middle. L. 3 

 lin. Kai, Batchian ( Wallace). 



Thorax at the sides and anterior angles with an impressed line. 



Coelophora Ripponi, sp. n. 



Subovate, black, head, tibiae, tarsi, epipleurse of the thorax and 

 elytra and sides of abdomen ochreous yellow, surface shining, 

 punctuation faint and sparse ; thorax ochreous yellow, with a 

 basal 4-dentate border and two obtriangular spots on either side 

 the disc near the anterior margin, black ; the elytra also ochreous- 

 yellow, the margins and suture narrowly black, also a black vitta 

 starting from the base, passing over the callus and nearly reaching 

 the apex; its broadest part is at about one-third; abdominal plates 

 not quite terminal, continued to the outer edge of the segment. 

 L. 2 1 lin. Australia (Kippon). 



Coelophora simulans, sp. n. 



Black, legs yellow, head pale yellow ; thorax yellow with a 

 basal border extending to the augles, and a large diseoidal triangle 

 connected by its apex with the base, black ; elytra rich orange, 

 suture narrowly, margins more broadly, black; punctuation sparse 

 and clear. L. 2 lin. Madagascar (Deyrolle). The extraordinary 

 resemblance of this species to CheU. triangidifera, also from Mada- 

 gascar, is worthy of notice.

Black, head, thorax, elytra (striped with black), tibia?, and ab- 

 domen at the sides canary-yellow ; thorax with the base margined
