Thoradonta sinuata, sp .nov. 
Colour ferrugineous. Head not at all exserted; vertex wider 
than one of the eyes; frontal costa compresso-elevated between 
the antennae. Pronotum above rugose, tuberculose; median 
carina strongly sinuate, tuberculate, in front of the shoulders and 
behind the humeral angles gibbulate; prozonal carinae forward 
behind the anterior margin convergent backward; lateral carinae 
behind the humeral angles sinuate and compressed; dorsum on 
the disc between the shoulders widened, tuberculose, and bearing 
a short carinula on each side, behind the shoulders bifossulate ; 
humeral angles with the carinae compressed; posterior process 
subulate, extended little beyond the hind femora apices; posterior 
angles of the lateral lobes of the pronotum laminate expanded and 
abruptly constricted and produced in a narrow transverse sharp 
spine on each side, sinuate in front and behind the angle; margins 
of the lateral lobes minutely serrulate. Elytra wide at the middle, 
narrowed forward and strongly narrowed toward the apices; wings 
extended nearly to the apex of the pronotal process. Anterior 
femoral margins undulate; middle femoral margins subtrilobate 
above and below; posterior femora externally rugose; margins 
serrulate; the first two pulvilli of the first article of the hind 
tarsi spinose, the third acute.

This species differs from sfzculoba, Hancock, in having the for- 
ward gibbosity in front of the shoulders on the pronotum lower 
and smaller, and in the less dilated posterior angles of the lateral 
lobes of the pronotum, and in the abruptly contracted and trans- 
versely produced narrow sharp spine, in contrast with the less 
contracted suboblique spine on each side in spfzculoba, the spines 
in the latter having the bases wider. 
Thoradonta apiculata, sp. nov. 
Near spiculoba and sinuata, Hancock. Colour greyish-rufes- 
cent, sometimes infuscate, the hind tibiae pale annulate. Head 
not at all exserted; vertex wider than one of the eyes; frontal! 
costa distinctly protuberant between-the antennae. Pronotum 
above rugose-granulose; metian carina of the pronotum com. 
pressed-gibbulate before the shoulders, but not so elevated as in 
spiculoba, and posteriorly sinuate; hind process subulate and 
extended much beyond the hind femoral apices; posterior angles
