Epilampra intermedia n. sp. 



9 . Head slightly exposed, dark testaceous, with 3 longi- 

 tudinal black lines on the vertex, a large castaneous blotch 

 between the lower part of the eyes, and a second one between 

 it and the labrum. Antennae as long as the body, light casta- 

 neous, unicolorous. Pronotum parabolic, posterior margin 

 angled; smooth, not impresso-punctate, testaceous, with a 

 dense mass of large and small black dots and a series of about 

 12 large spots along the posterior margin. Tegmina much 

 exceeding the abdomen, minutely impresso-punctate, testaceous 

 to light castaneous, with numerous round light spots against 

 the proximal border of which slightly smaller brown spots are 

 placed which are darkest in the basal portion of the tegmina 

 and fade away apically. Both the light and the brown spots 

 are specially large along the radial vein. Wings amber 

 coloured, darkest along the anterior border. Abdomen testa- 

 ceous to orange, with dark spots, darkest posteriorly, the 

 sub-genital (9^ lamina almost entirely black. Legs dark 

 testaceous, outer edge of tibiae black, tibial spines dark testa- 

 ceous, metatarsus and tarsiis of the same colour, but each joint 

 black terminally. 



9 . Total length 30 mm. ; l)ody 23 mm. ; pronotum 6.5 x 

 8 mm. ; tegmina 25 mm. 



Hah. 1 9 Mt. Dulit. There is in the Oxford Museum an 

 unnamed 9 specimen from Kuching, Sarawak (R. Shelf ord, 

 July, 1900), which agrees with the one from Mt. Dulit in all 

 particulars, and another 9 • from Mt. Matang, Sarawak 

 (January, 1897), which differs only by the brown blotches on 

 the face being less distinct. 



This species is of the typical habitus of an Epilampra and 

 offers the usual difficulty of describing its colour and markings 

 satisfactorily. It seems nearest allied to my E. circumdata, 

 in which, how^ever, the disk of the pronotum is of a uniform 

 chestnut, with testaceous border. 



Epilampra unicolor n. sp. 



9- Head almost covered by the pronotum, black shining; 

 labrum testaceous ; antennae (mutilated) brown. Pronotum 

 parabolic, posteriorly angled, smooth, shining, castaneous. 

 Tegmina just exceeding the body, their apex rounded, shining, 

 uniform castaneous, anal area faintly impresso-punctate.
