epipleuræ indistinct below the middle, anterior coxal cavities 
closed. 
ab. Toungoo. 
A plainly marked species, resembling somewhat in coloration 
M. signata Oliv. but easily distinguished by the number, position 
and shape of the elytral pale spots. 
Monolepta kanarensis n. sp. 
Broadly ovate, convèx, entirely dark fulvous, the antennæ (the 
first joint excepted) black, thorax impunctate, elytra very finely 
and closely punctured. 
Length 2 lines. 
Head impunctate, the frontal elevations feebly raised, eyes very 
large, antennæ closely approached at the base, extending below 
the middle of the elytra, black, the basal joint fulvous, the 
second and third extremely small, equal, the fourth, as long as 
the preceding joints together, pubescent, the following nearly 
as elongate, thorax about one half broader than long, rather 
convex, the lateral margin nearly straight, the posterior one 
rounded, the anterior angles slightly oblique, the surface impunc- 
tate, shining, elytra somewhat strongly convex, very minutely 
and closely punctured, their epipleuræ indistinct below the 
middle, legs slender, fulvous, the tibiæ and tarsi slightly darker, 
the first joint of the posterior tarsi extremely long; penis long 
and slender, the apex obliquely pointed. 
Hab. Kanara, S. Bombay. 
This Monolepta seems closely allied to A7. castanea Ad. from 
Singapoor, but differs in the fulvous underside and legs and in the 
shining and impunctate thorax, the posterior angles of the latter 
are distinct, otherwise the species might as well been placed in 
Ochralea. 
Monolepta Andrewesi n. sp. 
Flavous or fulvous, thorax extremely finely punctured, obsole- 
tely depressed, elytra black, very closely and finely punctured, 
breast and sometimes the abdomen partly black. 
Length 1 1,2-2 lines. 
Head impunctate, the frontal tubercles small but distinct, 
carina short and rather broad, antennæ extending to about two- 
thirds the length of the elytra, fulvous, the second and third joint 
short, the fourth as long as slightly longer than the preceding two 
joints, the following joints elongate and slender, thorax twice as 
broad as long, the sides slightly, the posterior margin more 
strongly rounded, the surface with an obsolete transverse depres-
