The specimens described under the name indicus differ only in 
being of a lighter hue, but with the pectus piceous, and cannot be 
regarded as belonging to a distinct species. Distant describes the 
lateral margins of meso- and metasternum in indicus as ochraceous, 
but he has in this as in so many other cases described the epipleura 
of the corium as the lateral margin of the meso- and  metas- 
ternum. i 
The type (from Nura-Ellia) is in good condition and in its 
colouring intermediate between bispinus (as described by Distant) 
and indicus.

Two new names are now added to the long synonymic list (only © 
partly reproduced above) of this cosmopolitan species. These two 
names are not mentioned in Stál's Enumeratio and the Catalogue of 
Lethierry and Severin, probably on account of the shortness of 
the descriptions. The two type specimens of obliquefasciatus, one of 
which is very fragmentary, are from Java (Batavia). The two types 
of ustulatus, one of which is without a head, are from Cuba 
(Havana).

The upper side of the body (except head) is destroyed in the 
type from Colombo. Motschulsky says in his description: „fe- 
moribus medio tibiarumque apice nigro-piceis“, but the femora have 
only a somewhat narrow subapical pitchy black annulation, and in the 
tibia the base (not the apex) is pitchy black, quite as described by 
Distant who has apparently interpreted this species correctly.
