punctato-striatis, striis apicem versus fere deletis ; sordide fulvls, 

 limbo augusto, striaruni punctis et utriuque plagu irregulari 

 magna, a basi ad paulo pone medium extensa, ad marginem 

 lateralem adfixa, piceis. Long. It liu. 



Hab. Murree, a single specimen, also India, without precise 

 locality, my collection. 



Vertex and front sub-remotely punctured ; clypeus coarsely 

 and irregularly punctured, not distinctly separated from the 

 upper face, its anterior border deeply excavate-emarginate, the 

 emargination produced and forming two sub-acute teeth, labrum 

 fulvous ; antennae slender, filiform, the second and third joints 

 nearly equal in length, the fourth very slightly longer than the 

 third; four or five lower joints obscure fulvous, the rest piceous. 

 Thorax nearly twice as broad as long ; sides diverging at the 

 base, obtusely angled behind the middle, thence obliquely con- 

 verging and very slightly rounded to the apex ; disc transversely 

 convex, very coarsely and deeply punctured. Elytra oblong, 

 sub-acutely rounded at the a[)ex, convex, strongly punctate- 

 striate, the punctures near the apex much finer and nearly 

 obsolete, interspaces plane, impimetate ; the irregiilarly piceous 

 patch on each elytron covers the outer disc (the humeral callus 

 excepted) and extends from the base to just below the middle 

 of the disc. All the thio-hs armed beneath with a small tooth. 



8. Paria cupfcscens, n. sp. 



Anguste ovata, subtus cum capite picea, pedibus antenna- 

 r unique basi palHdis ; supra euprea, thorace sub-conico, vage 

 punctato ; elytris regulariter punctato-striatis, interspatiis planis, 

 impunctatis. Long. 1^ lin. 



Hab, Jhelam Valley. 



Vertex swollen, shining, impunctate ; clypeus transverse, its 

 anterior border emarginate ; antenna^ rather more than half the 

 length of the body, piceoiis, the two lower joints paler. Thorax 

 broader than long at the base ; sides straight and oblicpiely con- 

 verging from base to apex, the hinder angles very acute ; basal 

 margin oblique on either side, the median lobe obtusely rounded; 

 disc sub-cylindrical, impressed, but not closely, with very 

 shallow punctures. Elytra ovate, attenuated at the apex, regu- 

 larly punctate- striate, the i]iterspaccs plane, each impressed 

 with an irregular row of minute puucturcs ; humeral callus 

 thickened.
