26 APOGONIA GOEDIIUISI. 



at the base than in front, broadest about the middle; the 

 sides strongly and regularly rounded when viewed from 

 above, strongly rounded about the middle when viewed 

 laterally ; the anterior angles are acute and slightly pro- 

 minent , the posterior ones very obtuse ; the base is rounded , 

 slightly projecting in the middle; the punctures on the 

 pronotum are fine, and somewhat more densely set on 

 the disk than on the sides. The scutellum is broadly tri- 

 angular with slightly sinuate sides , smooth , with a few 

 very fine punctures. 



The punctures on the elytra are larger but less densely 

 set than those on the pronotum ; the first costa is broad 

 and provided with two irregular rows of finer punctures ; 

 the second costa is narrower and provided with only one 

 row of fine punctures ; the third costa agrees in every 

 respect with the three external interspaces which are of 

 equal width and provided with a row of fine punctures; 

 on the first of these three interspaces the punctures are , 

 however, somewhat closer together and larger. 



The punctures on the under surface are rather wide 

 apart and larger on the sides than in the middle; on the 

 propygidium they are smaller and closer together, but on the 

 pygidium they are large and widely separated in the middle. 



The legs are slender, the anterior tibiae linear and 

 obtusely bidentate. 



H a b, Borneo : Sintang. — A single specimen , captured 

 in August or September 1894 by Dr. Goedhuis, to whom 

 I have dedicated this conspicuous species. 



Apogonia abdominalis , n. sp. 



A highly polished species of moderate size (10 — 11 mm.) 

 which is easily recognizable by the two impressions on 

 the elytra behind the shoulders and by its coloration, this 

 being black *) with the abdomen red (black in the middle 



1) When the insect was kept in spirits, its upper surface showed a metallic 

 green and coppery lustre. This is probably also the colour of the insect when alive.
