Hab. Sarawak; Borneo. Collected by Mr. Wallace. 
Head closely punctured, and covered with adpressed scales; jaws 
dark fuscous. Thorax scarcely broader than long, somewhat flattened 
above, closely covered with scales, sides slightly rounded, narrowed in 
front, lateral border obsolete, all the angles armed with a short obtuse 
tooth. Elytra much broader than the thorax, nearly three times its 
length, their sides parallel; surface deeply punctate-striate, closely 
covered with scales, which are arranged in small irregular patches; 
intermingled with the scales are a few erect rigid fuscous hairs; piceous 
space more sparingly clothed with scales, which are concolorous with 
the patch itself.

Body elongate, subcylindrical, clothed above and beneath with adpressed 
scales. Head exserted, perpendicular; antenne filiform, scarcely 
thickened at their extremity, basal joint incrassate, the second shorter 
than the first, subincrassate, third and four following joints each nearly 
twice the length of the second, equal, eighth to the eleventh each 
rather shorter than the preceding, subequal ; eyes prominent, entire ; 
mentum with its anterior border feebly excavated, concave ; terminal 
joint of maxillary palpi ovate, attenuated towards the apex, the same 
joint in the labial palpi more slender, also ovate. Thorax subcylin-

thorax, sides parallel, surface deeply punctured, covered with adpressed 
scales, sparingly mingled with which are a few rigid erect hairs. Legs 
subelongate ; thighs moderately thickened, armed beneath with a stout

The slender legs, simple tibize, regularly cylindrical thorax, with- 
out trace of raised lateral border, the flattened scales, and long

I know only a single species, from Hongkong, brought to this

Genus Dremorrna, Baly. 
Body oblong, subcylindrical, covered above and beneath with small ad- 
pressed scales. Head exserted, perpendicular ; antenne either slender 
and filiform, or rather more robust, subfiliform, basal joint ovate, incras-
