Priochirus (Cephalomerus) divaricatus n. sp. (Fig. 5.) 



Black, subdepressed, shining; head 4 — denate, the inner 

 horns long, stout, conical, divergent, considerably produced 

 beyond the level of the lateral teeth, these much smaller* 

 dentiform ; frontal impression much wider and a little longer 

 than the sulcus of the vertex, slightly longer than the free 

 inner border of the inner horn, the inter-cornual margin a 

 little produced and rounded. Thorax scarcely transverse, the 

 sides parallel, biserially punctured, the base. not completely 

 bordered, in places feebly alutaceous. Elytra a little longer 

 than the thorax, slightly longer than broad, the sides punctured, 

 the disc scarcely alutaceous. Abdomen finely and closely 

 punctured at the sides and bases of the segments ; apex red. 

 Antennae black, the 1st joint sulcate throughout, 4th to 6th 

 oval, 7th moniliform, 4th to 10th slightly transverse. Legs 

 red. Length 10 mm. 



Distinct from the preceding species by the diverging inner 

 horns and smaller external tooth ; viewed laterally the inner 

 horn shows no trace of infra-apical denticle, but a distinct 

 one is present near the base as in the other species. 



Mt. Dulit. 3,500 feet, two specimens. 



Priochirus (Cephalomerus) proxtmus n. sp. (Fig. 4.) 



Black, shining, subdepressed ; head 4 — dentate, the inner 

 horns long, stout, conical, scarcely divergent, considerably 

 produced beyond the level of the outer teeth ; these well 

 developed, separated from the inner by a semi-circular 

 emargination ; frontal impression much wider but shorter 

 than the sulcus of the vertex, as long as the free margin of 

 the inner horn, inter-cornual space a little produced; disc 

 on either side with a large deep fovea between the base of 

 the inner horn and the eye. Thorax scarcely transverse, 

 the sides parallel, biserially punctured, the base incompletely 

 bordered, feebly alutaceous. Elytra a little longer than the 

 thorax, distinctly coriaceous, the sides finely punctured. 

 Abdomen finely and very sparingly biserially punctured, 

 impunctate in the middle line, apex red. Antennae with the 

 1st joint sulcate throughout, 4th to 6th oval, 7th to 10th as 

 long as broad. Legs red. Length 8.5 to 10 mm. Dis- 

 tinguished from the preceding species by the deeply bifurcate 

 head, shorter scarcely divergent inner horns, larger outer
