Mr. Pascoe's descrlptium of Curcullonidoa. 601 



simul sumptis fere triplo longiore ; coraulius peotoralibus acutis. 

 Long. 8 lin. 

 Hab. Labuan. 



Derm brown, -with patches and spots of fulvous scales; rostrum 

 finely punctured, two indistinct lines on each side, the lower 

 boundary of the scrobe with four or five tubercles ; first and 

 second joints of the funicle longer than the next four together; 

 prothorax equal in length and breadth, punctures shallow and 

 somewhat remote, four lines of scales — the two middle united at 

 the extremities — on the disc, the sides speckled; elytra punctate- 

 striate, the alternate interstices more elevated, each having a 

 line of punctures, behind the middle a brown sutnral spot, and 

 another at the apex externally, rest of the elytra speckled; 

 pectoral cavity small, pectoral spines — or horns — tapering grad- 

 ually to a point; legs long, the anterior pair nearly twice the 

 length of the intermediate; basal joint of the anterior tarsi nearly 

 three times as long as the rest together, all, except the last 

 joint, fringed beneath. 



In colour and general outline like C. sphcerops, Wied., but 

 larger, with proportionally longer anterior legs, prothoi'ax less 

 closely and elytra more strongly punctured, the smaller pectoral 

 cavity and the tapering breast-s^oines. The female is unknown 

 to me. 



Some of the more remarkable species here described will be 

 figured in Mr. C. O. Waterhouse's "Aid to the identification of 

 insects."
