Diöers from Orectochilus marginipennis Aubé by the some- 

 what smaller size , the more elongated shape , and prin- 

 cipally by the traces of five longitudinal very inconspi- 

 cuous furrows on the elytra. 



Captured in October 1877 at Alahan Pandjang and in 

 April 1877 near the cave of Boea. 



4. Orectochilus scalaris, sp. n. 



Elongato-ovatus , antice ac postice attenuatus , valde con- 

 vexus; infra testaceo-ferrugineus; supra laevis, fusco-aenes- 

 cens, cum labro, ultimo abdominis segmento atque an- 

 gustissimo elytrorum niargine rufis; prothorace vitta mar- 

 ginali antice dilatata, punctata et griseo-tomentosa , elytris 

 vitta simili sat angusta post medium bis dilatata et sutu-

 for the first time a little behind the middle and a second
