subcylindrical, microscopically punctured, below black, the legs 

 fulvous, rather long, the first joint of the anterior tarsi in the maie, 

 elongate, the second, one half shorter. 



Hab. Kanara (collect. H. E. Andrewes and my own). 



Smaller than the preceding species, the elytra of opaque colour 

 and nearly obsoletely punctured, with a humerai spot, the anterior 

 tarsi elongate. 



ASPIDOLOPHA .ENEICOLLIS sp. n. 



Below black, pubescent, head and thorax greenish aîneous, rugo- 

 sely punctured, scutellum carinate, elytra strongly semipunctate- 

 striate, flavous, the suturai and latéral margins and a humerai spot 

 piceous, legs flavous, base of the femora piceous. 



Length 4 mil!. 



Head closely and strongly rugose, greenish, opaque, the clypeus 

 shining and sparingly punctured, eyes widely separated, feebly 

 notched at the lower margin, labrum piceous, antennae scarcely 

 extending to the base of the thorax, black, the lower three joints 

 more or less fulvous below, the fourth and Ihe following joints 

 transversely subquadrate; thorax Iwice as broad as long, slighLly 

 depressed at the sides, the latéral margins rounded, the médian 

 lobe feebly produced and straight, the angles rather obtuse, the 

 surface rugosely punctured, the punctures deep and sometimes 

 confluent, the interstices reticulate, near the middie at each side a 

 small, more or less distinct smooth tubercle may be seen, scutellum 

 greenish, pubescent at the base, very broad, the apex carinate; 

 elytra parallel, elongate, strongly and rather closely punctured in 

 very irregular rows, the basai lobe at the shoulders strongly pro- 

 duced, the dise flavous, the sides from below the base to below the 

 middie and a narrow suturai band piceous, a small spot on the 

 shoulders, greenish; below black, closely pubescent, legs flavous, 

 the femora more or less piceous at the base, the metatarsus net 

 much longer than the second joint. 



I know of no olher similatiy coloured species of this genus, the 

 elytra bave also the apical mai-gins narrowly black but at the sides 

 this colour gradually widenes; Ihe abdomen is strongly thickened 

 as usual in this genus and Ihe pygidium is not covered by the elytra. 



/ETHEOMORPHA MULTIPLAGIATA sp. n. 



Fulvous, finely pubescent below, thorax with three spots, minu- 

 tely punctured, elytra regularly punctate-striate, a suturai band, 

 widened posteriorly, the sides and apex, a transverse band below
