12S CHLORIDOl.UM KLAESII. 



mewhat longer than 4 and as long as 6 , 7 a little shor- 

 ter than 6 and as long as 8 , 9 as long as 10 and of the 

 same length as 6, 11 somewhat more than twice as long 

 as 10; the 3'^ and following joints are longitudinally fur- 

 rowed beneath. 



Thorax glabrous, shining , strongly spined at the sides; 

 the anterior and posterior portion transversely wrinkled; 

 the disc with patches of transverse striae ^) and a few 

 punctures , and with some faint^ elevations laterally. The 

 scutellum glabrous, rather broadly triaugular with curved 

 sides, and with transverse wrinkles at the tip. 



Elytra green , covered with a black tomentum which 

 leaves however a narrow sutural and a broader discal 

 stripe free; the sutural stripe disappears a little beyond 

 the middle , the discal one , which runs over the shoulder , 

 extends from the base up to the apex of the elytra; the 

 sculpture of these bare stripes (which are bright coppery) 

 is transverse and very coarse, that of the tomentose portion 

 exceedingly fine and dense. 



Body beneath glabrous , shining ; the prosternum den- 

 sely covered with small punctures and very fine transverse 

 wrinkles , and provided with a smooth line along the mid- 

 dle ; the metasternum remotely punctured , the abdomen 

 almost impunctate. The anterior and intermediate femora 

 strongly punctured , the posterior ones (which are very 

 elongate) much finer; the tibiae of the posterior legs are 

 strongly compressed , flat , and slightly sinuate , the meta- 

 tarsus of the same pair nearly as long as the three fol- 

 lowing joints taken together. 



Two male specimens from West Sumatra (Dr. C. Klaesi). 



I have named this species in honour of its discoverer , who 

 has done so much to increase our knowledge of the Avi- 

 fauna of Sumatra. 



1) These patches of transverse striae are very obsolete in the smaller specimeD.
