new genera and species of Cleridce. 165 



Clerus concinnus, n. sp. 



Niger, tliorace crebre subtiliter punctato, postice 

 attenuate; elytris basi fulvo-tiuctis, juxta scutellum tuber- 

 culo atro-piloso instrvictis, medio anguste flavo-fasciato, 

 antennis articulis duobus basalibiis, ore, tarsisque testaceis. 



Long. 2 lin. 



Smaller than any other species of this genus known to 

 me, and probably not truly belonging to it ; the terminal 

 joint of the antennae is quadrate, compressed, not acu- 

 minate ; the prothorax is rather shining near the base, 

 and is there raised into an elongate tubercle. 



Hah. — Guatemala, Chinautta (alt. 4,100 ft. O. Salvin). 



Stigmatium cinereum, n. sp. 



Cinereo et fusco variegatum ; thorace, capite eh trisque 

 angustiore, a3neo-sericeo, medio indistincte carinato, antice 

 et postice concinne constricto ; antennis basi apiceque 

 testaceis, pedibus pallidis, femoribus et tibiis fusco-annula- 

 tis, genubus etiam fuscis, tarsis rufis. 



Long. 3 — 3^ lin. 



A species forming a link between Omadius and Stig- 

 matium, the structure of the thorax and coloration of the 

 legs being rather that of the former, while the width of 

 the space between the eyes leads me to place it in the 

 latter. The head is testaceous in front and in the ocular 

 sinus, while the crown and space between the eyes is ashy- 

 grey, eyes large ; thorax nearly parallel, bronzed, shining. 

 Elytra with the humeral angles right, narrowed to apex, 

 which is subacute, punctate-striate for half their length, 

 thickly clothed "with ashy scales and darker spots, the 

 principal of which form an undulate central fascia ; sub- 

 costate in the middle with the sutural region flattish ; this 

 character, with the brassy-looking thorax, will best dis- 

 tinguish this species from any other known to me. It is 

 not easily to be compared to any other, yet the differences, 

 especially in the marking, are hard to express. 



Hab. — Dorey, New Guinea (Wallace), Andaman Isles; 

 coll. Fry and Gorham. 



Stigmatium ustulatum, n. sp. 



Nigro-piceum, nitidum, thorace elongato, antice et 

 postice consti'icto, disco intequali, medio carinato, elytris 

 fascia mediana, alteraque ante apicem latiore argenteo-
