SÜMATRASIA UNICOLOR. 69 



Two .specimens : one from Alahan pandjang , the other 

 from the District of Rawas (Sumatra-Expedition). 



Psexidocophora , no v. gen. 



Shape and structural characters of Aulacophora. Differ- 

 ing in "the elytral epipleurae which are continued nearly 

 to the apex. 



Type : Pseudocophora Buqueti Guer. (under Aulacophora). 



It is impossible to leave the above named species in the 

 genus Aulacophora in which it was placed by Guerin , on 

 account of the prolonged elytral epipleurae. The elytra 

 differ in the present species also by their punctuation 

 which is arranged in striae anteriorly. I give here a re- 

 newed description of both sexes. 



Pseudocophora Buqueti, Guer. 



cf. Black. Antennae flavous or obscure fulvous. Head 

 and thorax fulvous, impunctate. Elytra punctate-striate, 

 anteriorly black, posterior portion flavous, extreme apex 

 and margin black ; a deep fovea below the scutellum. — 

 Length 3 lines. 



9. Elytra simple, more closely punctured. 



Head impunctate , deeply transversely grooved. Encarpae 

 transverse. Carina distinct. Antennae more than half the length 

 of the body in the female (in the male specimen they are bro- 

 ken), filiform. Thorax one half broader than long , the sides 

 straight at the base , widened at the middle , surface rather 

 convex , with a deep transverse groove extending entirely 

 to the sides, disk impunctate. Scutellum fulvous, trigonate. 

 Elytra widened behind, finely punctate-striate at their an- 

 terior half, posterior portion finely and irregularly punct- 

 ured ; a deep longitudinal fovea extends below the scutel- 

 lum to about the first third of their length and has within 

 its base two small fulvous tubercles. Legs black, anterior 

 tibiae, knees and tarsi obscure fulvous.
