XXVII.— Coleoptera (Lagriidae) from Nor- 

 thern Sarawak. By F. Borchman. 



Tlie collection of Lagriidae, though small, has proved 

 to be an interesting one, containing besides some previously 

 described species also three characteristic new species. Of 

 interest is also the capture of the hitlierto unknown cf of 

 Cerogria rhytidonota Frm. One form from Mt. Penrissen is 

 also referred to here. 



1. Cerogria rhytidonota Frm. 



(Bull. Soc. Ent. Fr., 1903, p. 301). 

 Up to now only the 9 was known. 



(j*. Length of body 13—15 mm. ; very similar to the cf of 

 Cer. gigas Lap., coppery-metallic shining, bases of femora 

 and sometimes epipleurae of elytra brownish-red ; sculpture 

 of elytra, especially towards the end much rougher, anterior 

 margin of prothorax more distinctly set oflp, the basal 

 impressions deeper; antennae reaching beyond the shoulders, 

 in the middle slightly incrassate ; 4th joint nearly twice as 

 long as 3rd, at the apex oblique, 7th joint and especially 

 9th dilated, tooth-shaped, apical joint as long as joints 

 5—10 together; shape of body as in Cer. gigas; the 

 distance between the eyes as wide as their diameter ; vertex 

 slightly impressed ; in everything else like Cer. gigas. of 

 which Cer. rhytidonota perhaps may be only a variety. 



Localities : 1 specimen from Kinabalu, 3000 feet, Septem- 

 ber, 1913; 1 specimen from Mt. Murud. 6000-7000 feet., 

 leg. Dr. E. Mjoberg.
