Hypolithus acutangulus, Chaud., M. S. 
Tetara. 
Among the small cyanescent-black species (8 millim.) of which 
there are several in S. E. Asia, this species is recognizable by the 
distinct hind angles of the thorax; the latter is transverse-quadrate, 
narrowed behind and nearly smooth on the disk (the rest being 
closely and minutely punctured); the hind angles, though not rectan- 
cular, are quite sharp and margined at the apex. In a specimen 
from Sumatra sent to me by M. Ritsema and named 77. acutangulus 
on the authority of M. René Oberthur from the Chaudoirian collec- 
tion, the angles are a little more rectangular (due to a just percep- 
tible sinuation of the sides before the angles) than those from 
Chota-Nagpore, but I can detect no other difference. From 
H. subtilis (Bates, Burma)it is further distinguished by a sharp 
line sunk in a shallow groove extending on each side from the 
frontal suture to the inner margin of the eye, and by the much 
smaller pores on the alternate elytral interstices. 7. cyanellus 
(Bates; Cochinchina) is similar but less ovate and of a more 
pronounced blueish-green hue and more convex elytral interstices; 
it has, however, curved frontal impressions and the hind thoracic 
angles almost as distinct as in 77. acutangulus. In all, the palpi, 
antennæ and legs are testaceous-yellow.

Found also in Cochinchina and in Ceylon. The single Ceylonese 
example and most of those from Chota-Nagpore are more strongly 
punctulated; this is more especially observable on the elytral
