male form of westwoodi, Thorns., and should not bear a 

 separate name. 



H. denticornis, Kz. This is a slight variety of the same, 

 and unworthy of a distinctive name. 



JI. viridicollis, Kz. This is described as a variety of 

 westwoodi, Thorns., but is stated to have the angles of the 

 clypeus acutely produced and to come from South Borneo, 

 in which respects it agrees with Iwwitti, Cast., and I think 

 it is probably a small and les.ser developed form of the 

 male of this species. 



Thcodosia rothschildi, n. sp. 



$ . Viridis, subnitida, elytris flavescentibus ; capite coruu sat 

 brevi, apice profunde bifido, supra igneo-cupreo ; thorace cornu 

 robusto, apice bifido, dilatato, igneo-cupreo ; tibiis anterioribus intus 

 dense flavo pilosis. 



Long, (cornu excepto) 25 mm. 



Mount Kina-balu, N. Borneo. 



This species most nearly resembles T. telifer, Bates, but 

 is to be at once distinguished from all the other known 

 members of the genus, except ^JcraA'c?ms, Moser, in having 

 the inner-side of the anterior tibiffi densely clothed with 

 fine pale yellow pubescence. The horn on the head is 

 a little broader than in telifer and the thoracic horn is 

 less flattened and more dilated at its apex, the sides of 

 the thorax are a little more prominent in the middle, the 

 scutellum is much broader at the base, as in magiiijica, 

 Roths., the elytra are broader and more rounded at the 

 sides before the middle, and the mesosternal process is 

 broader and more rounded at its apex. The sculpture is 

 very similar to that of telifer except that the punctuation 

 of the scutellum is very dense and confluent. The legs 

 are deep green with the upper-side of the femora flaves- 

 cent, otherwise the colour is similar to that of telifer. The 

 length of the prothorax including the horn is 17 mm., the 

 cephalic horn is 6 mm. in length. 



T. perakensis, Moser (Berl. Ent. Zeit., 1902, p. 379), is 

 the only other described species having pubescent anterior 

 tibiae, but in that species the cephalic horn is acute at 

 the apex, not bifid as in rothschildi. 



Theodosia aurata, n. sp. 

 $ . Aureo-viridi-fiavescens, micans ; capite igneo-cupreo, cornu 

 brevi, apice bifido ; thorace dorso subtilissime punctato, nitidissimo,
