XYLOBANÜS TINCTUS. 97 



costis quatuor, intervallis uniseriatim regulariter foveatis , 

 foveiö scalariformibus. — Loug. 9 — 10 luillim. 9- 



The antennae are compressed with broad triangular joints 

 from the third to the tenth ; the fourth and succeeding 

 joints are acutely produced , but have not their apices 

 twisted nor overlapping. The thorax has seven areolets , 

 the posterior pair nearly square, the middle of the basal 

 margin not notched. 



The distinguishing character of this species lies in the 

 single series of distinct, transverse, regular cells between 

 the four costae and the margins. In colour it precisely 

 resembles M. infuscatus and its allies , but the raised lines 

 and transverse ridges are alone redbrown. 



Two specimens from the district of Rawas (Sum. Exp,), 

 and one from Boenga mas: Palembang (I. C. van Hasselt). 



8. Xylob anus (?) dimidiatus, sp. n. 



Nigra; prothorace elytrisque dimidio basali flavis, an- 

 tennis pectin atis , elytris uniseriatim crebre foveatis. — Long.

Extremely like M. amoenus] to be distinguished by the 

 pectinate antennae and single row of cells in the costal

The scutellum is black. The elytra have not distinct

A single male specimen from Lebong (Sura. Exp.).
