58 XENODA SPINICORNIS. 



Xenoda spinicornis , Baly, 



Elongate, testaceous. Head and thorax impunctate. Ely- 

 tra dark purplish , finely transversely rugose and sparingly 

 pubescent. — Length 3 lines. 



Head with a transverse ridge between the eyes , the space 

 between the antennae very narrow , raised , and divided 

 longitudinally by a groove. Clypeus transversely triangu- 

 lar. Antennae scarcely half the length of the body, tes- 

 taceous, the second joint very short, the five following 

 joints forming an elongate thickened club and ending in 

 a long and acute spine, the next joint as long as the five 

 preceeding joints together, the two terminal joints rather 

 short. Thorax narrowly transverse , the sides straight , an- 

 terior angles slightly tuberculate, posterior ones obsolete, 

 surface with a deep transverse depression which does not 

 quite extend to the sides, entirely impunctate. Scutellum 

 broadly triangular. Elytra of a purplish violaceous or green- 

 ish colour , according to the position the insect is held , 

 the suture however of the former colour, surface entirely 

 covered with transverse wrinkles without punctuation , the 

 sides and apex sparingly covered with stiff hairs. Legs 

 testaceous , first posterior tarsal joint as long as the 3 fol- 

 lowing ones together. Claws appendiculate. 



A single specimen from Moeara Laboe (Sumatra-Expe- 

 dition). 



I have given a renewed description of this species, which 

 varies in the colour of the antennae, legs and underside 

 from the typical form, but I believe in no other respect. 



Xenoda hïrtipênnis , n. sp. 



Testaceous. Head and thorax impunctate. Elytra ex- 

 tremely finely punctured , closely pubescent , testaceous , 

 the basal margin and a lateral longitudinal band, extending 

 nearly to the apex, black. — Length 3 lines.
