This beautiful insect which I have much pleasure in naming 

 after Dr. Mjoberg, is closely allied to M. maculata Brunner, 

 but is readily distinguished by the markings of the pronotum. 

 In M. maculata the central black blotch of the pronotum is 

 much smaller, it is widely separated from the anterior margin, 

 and reaches the posterior margin by only about six processes. 

 The restricted occurrence of M. nijohergi, viz., so far known 

 from Mt. Dulit only, is very remarkable, as compared with 

 that of M. maculata, which has been taken at Singapore (by 

 Wallace about 70 years ago, and by the Hon. C. J. Saunders 

 at the Impounding Reservoir, Thomson Road, September, 

 1922), at Penang (H. N. Ridley, 1900), by myself at three places 

 on the Malay Peninsula (Semangko Pass, Bukit Kutu and 

 and Gunong Ivledang), and in Sarawak (Wallace and Shelf ord), 

 Brunner gave the origin of his type as "Java"?

9 . Broad, convex. Head entirely covered by the prono- 

 tum, liglit testaceous, a large black blotch starting from 

 between the eyes and continued downwards, giving off a 

 branch on either side just below the insertion of the antennae 

 and ending at the base of the labrum. Antennae (broken) 

 nearly as long as the body. Pronotum parabolic, much 

 broader than long, posteriorly only slightly produced, smooth, 

 not impresso-impunctate ; testaceous, heavily mottled . with 

 dark brown and black, with two large black maculae, one on 

 either side of the middle line, nearer to the anterior margin; 

 along the posterior margin a number of testaceous lacrymiform 

 maculae, broadly bordered with black. Tegmina only slightly 

 exceeding the abdomen, broad, rounded at the apex, testaceous,
