NOTES ON A SMALL COLLECTION OF LANGURIID^ FROM 

 BENGAL IN THE ROYAL BELGIAN MUSEUM 



by W. W. Fowler. 



I hâve lately received from M. Se vérin a small collection of 

 Languriidse collected in Kurseong, Bengal, by the R. P. Braet and 

 in Barway by the R. P. Cardon; it contains only six species, but 

 of thèse the rare and interesting Pentelanguria elateroides is repre- 

 sented by a large séries of more than eighty examples ; there are 

 three spécimens of Pachylanguria metasternalis Crotch, one of the 

 largest and finest of the Langtiriidae, fîve of Tetralanguria pyrami- 

 data, which appears to be a somewhat widely distributed insect, and 

 one of a Languria which is perhaps L. nigrina Wied.; the other 

 two species are new, one being a tricolorous banded Languria, and 

 the other a somewhat small but handsome Doubledaya. Of thèse 

 I append the descriptions : 



Languria virgata n. s.

 ribus, ad basin cœruleis, ad apicem nigris, média parte rufa ; capite
