front. Elytra pitchy with a greenish brassy reflection, with 

 series of deep, distinct pnnctnres, which are generally continned 

 to the apex, legs pale with light greenish tibite. 

 Hab. Mysol. 



Ohs. This is the first of a aeries of little species, which are 

 not nearly allied to any that are described, so far as I am aware, 

 they are perhaps most easily compared to S. ambulator, Westw. 



The present species was returned to me by INI. Chevrolat, to 

 whom I sent it, as unknown to him with the name attached 

 which I have adopted. 



Stigmativm tergo-dndum, (Chev.), n. sp. 



Sub-nitidum, pallide testaceum, elytris piceis suba^neis, fortiter 

 punctato-striatis, apice albidis, thoracis disco infuscato. Long, 

 lin. 1-2\. 



Differs from the preceding in its smaller size and pale apex 

 of the elytra, as well as in the tibiaa not being greenish ; the 

 thorax is not tumid below the anterior constriction as in paUidi- 

 ventre. The antenna; are very fine and hairy, longer than the 

 head and thorax. 



Hab. Mysol, Aru. 



Also returned by M. Chevrolat as unknown to him. Two 

 specimens, which I cannot separate from those described above, 

 have the head and thorax pitchy, and the femora and even the 

 apex of the elytra more or less infuscate ; they are from Dorey 

 and New Gu,inea. 



Stiffinaf/'iitn pusillum, n. sp. 



Piceo-testaceum, elytris piceis, cinereo-pubescentibus fasciis 

 tribus paulo distinctis didruatis, antennis pedibusque pallide 

 testaceis, his femoribus posticis apice infuscatis. Long. lin. 2. 



Allied to the two preceding, but more pubescent than either ; 

 the head is rather more obscure in colour than the prothorax 

 the antenme hairy, passing the base of the thorax. Elytra 

 punctate-striate, strife entire, clothed with erect seta?, and also 

 with a thin depressed pubescence, the coloration is very obscure, 

 but three bands or interrupted spots which are darker than the 

 ground colour can be distinguished. 



Hab. Sarawak and Celebes, (Wallace).
