162 THE ENTOMOLOGIST. 



Oncochalcis marginata, sp. nov. 

 Black ; the tegulse, apical third of anterior, apical fourth of four 

 posterior femora, and the tibife and tarsi bright luteous ; the four front 

 tibiae with a dark fuscous band on the basal half ; the hinder femora 

 with five stout teeth on the apical half, the apical two close together, 

 the others more widely separated ; the base indistinctly toothed ; the 

 apex of clypeus with a distinct projecting border, which is widest in 

 the middle ; the median segment coarsely and distinctly reticulated, 

 the base with a row of arefe, of which the middle two are the wider. 

 Wings hyaline, the nervures black. ? . Length, 5-G mm. 



Hah. India. 



Scape of antennae shining, covered with a microscopic down ; the 

 flagellum opaque, covered thickly with a pale pile ; the third and fourth 

 joints equal in length, the last pale and hollowed on the apex in the 

 centre. Front and vertex rather strongly punctured ; the lower part of 

 the front, the sides, and to a less extent the centre of the face, thickly 

 covered with longish silvery pubescence. In the centre of the face 

 is a smooth, shining, raised plate, which is obliquely narrowed 

 above ; the lower part slightly narrower and roundly incised laterally. 

 Clypeus smooth, punctured closely in the centre. A.pex of mandibles 

 broadly piceous, the base opaque, closely punctured. Pro- and meso- 

 notum closely punctured, the centre of the latter more strongly than 

 the sides ; the sides of the former indistinctly bordered at the base ; 

 the parapsidal furrows curved, shallow. The areae on the metanotum 

 are irregularly striated ; the central basal is sharply, obliquely nar- 

 rowed at the base. Propleuraj irregularly striated in the centre ; the 

 upper part of the meso- smooth, and with a row of large round foveae ; 

 the lower coarsely, irregularly longitudinally striated and reticulated ; 

 the rest smooth, with the upper two-thirds irregularly striated. Meta- 

 pleurae closely, irregularly rugosely reticulated. The third and follow- 

 ing segments of the abdomen are thickly covered with white pube-. 

 scence ; the penultimate segment closely and strongly punctured, and 

 thickly covered with long silvery pubescence. The lower part of the 

 outer orbits are distinctly margined, as is also, less strongly, the lower 

 part of the malar space, the border on the latter being shining ; the 

 inner side has also a shining margin, which is continued obliquely 

 upwards below the eye. 



May be known from 0. deesce by the stronger femoral teeth, by 

 the more strongly developed temples, and by its more robust 

 form.

CffiLOJOPPA, gen. nov, 



Scutellum not much raised, its sides distinctly keeled to near the 

 apex. Median segment completely areolated ; the areola large, trans- 

 verse at the apex ; the basal half obliquely narrowed, with the centre 

 at the base rounded ; the segment is large ; its apex has an oblique 

 slope, and is toothed above laterally. Head large, the temples large, 

 roundly narrowed ; the occiput roundly and deeply incised, margined 

 above. Face and clypeus flat, not separated ; the apex of clypeus
