Coelioxys luzonicus makilingensis, n. subsp. 



(J . Length a little over 8 mm. ; differing from luzonicus thus : 

 mesothorax anteriorly (but not posteriorly) with a rather large 

 triangle of pure white hair ; oblique hair-marks on scutellum larger, 

 pure white ; spot above posterior end of tegulae pure white ; first 

 r. n. joining second s. m. very close to basal corner ; upper apical 

 teeth of abdomen longer, and not on the same horizontal plane, the 

 inner on each side being higher than the outer, which is not true of 

 hizonicus. The hair on the eyes is very short. 



Hab. Mount Makiling, Luzon (Baker, 2555). Easily known 

 from C. manilce, Ashm., by the absence of a triangular patch of 

 pale hair on posterior margin of mesothorax. The male of 

 C. jjhilijipensis, Bingh., on the other hand, has not even the 

 anterior patch. 



Coelioxys bakeri, n. sp. 



^ . Length 8'25 mm. ; black, with the dorsal markings, due to 

 scale-like pubescence, bright orange-fulvous ; region about antennae 

 with orange-fulvous hair, but that on clypeus and adjacent parts, and 

 under side of head, creamy- white; hair of pleura (except uppermost 

 end) and under side of thorax, also under side of coxaB, dense and 

 white ; trochanters black, femora, tibige and tarsi ferruginous, the 

 anterior and middle femora largely black beneath ; antennae black ; 

 eyes with short brown hair; sides of vertex with scattered, irregularly 

 placed large punctures ; mesothorax with large distinctly separated 

 punctures ; principal hair-ornaments on thorax above consisting of a 

 dense patch in front of tegulae, a broad triangle on mesothorax 

 anteriorly (but not posteriorly), a stripe (claviform posteriorly) above 

 tegulae, a broad band at base of scutellum, partly invading mesothorax, 

 and emitting a median stripe, enlarged at the end, posteriorly (the 

 whole shape hke that of a Taube aeroplane), and dense, long, paler 

 hair at sides of metathorax ; scutellum simple ; axillar teeth moder- 

 ately long, slightly curved ; area of metathorax with fine fluting at 

 extreme base ; tegulae piceous ; wings strongly infuscated, paler 

 basally ; b. n. meeting t. m. ; abdomen well punctured, with narrow 

 entire orange-fulvous hair- bands, the third segment has traces of a 

 second (median) band, while the fourth has a well-developed basal one; 

 hind margins of fourth and fifth segments ferruginous ; short spines 

 on lateral margins of fifth and sixth segments ; apical armature of six 

 spines, the two lower ones wide apart, slender, those of the upper 

 pairs rather short, the inner of each pair higher than the other ; 

 venter with very broad dense hair-bands, slightly stained with fulvous. 

 ? . Length about 7 mm. ; colours and ornaments essentially as 

 in the male, but mandibles, base of legs, and under side of abdomen 

 ferruginous ; sides of vertex closely punctured ; punctures of meso- 

 thorax smaller and much denser ; axillar spines not at all curved 

 inward; tegulae ferruginous; last dorsal segment of abdomen shining, 

 with fine scattered punctures, but apically rugose, very broad, sub- 

 truncate ; last ventral segment extending a moderate distance beyond 

 last dorsal, broadly truncate, but not so broad as the dorsal ; sub- 

 basal punctures of last ventral extremely minute, those of the other 

 ventral segments much larger.
