new or little-known species of Glenea. 215 



apicibus oblique truncatis breviter quadri-spinosis ; pedibus ferru- 

 gineis, tibiis anticis mediisque et antennis nigris ; corpore subtus 

 albo-maculato. Long. 27 mm., lat. 9 mm. 



Hab. Borneo. 



Head sparsely punctured in front, with two whitish vittse, which 

 are widely separated at the base, closely approximated above 

 between the upper lobes of the eyes, and slightly divergent on the 

 occiput. Each cheek with a white spot, whose upper border is in 

 a line with the upper border of a white patch on the side of the 

 prothorax immediately above the coxal cavity. The lateral vittae 

 of the thorax rather broad and visible from above, the median 

 dorsal vitta interrupted in the middle, with its anterior part narrow 

 and linear, its posterior or basal part spot-like. Scutellum with a 

 rounded white spot behind. Elytra strongly but very sparsely 

 punctured, each with five large white spots, of which the first, oval, 

 is placed on the middle of the disk a little behind the base ; the 

 second, smaller and rounded, in a line with the first, and at some 

 distance behind it; the third nearer the suture and behind the 

 middle of the elytron ; the fourth touching the uppermost of the 

 two lateral carinse ; the fifth, oblong and oblique, a little in front 

 of the apex ; in addition two minute white points, one external to 

 and behind the second spot, the other close to the suture between 

 the fourth and fifth spots. The sides of the breast spotted with 

 white. Each of the first four abdominal segments with two white 

 spots, the fifth with one spot, on each side. Legs reddish brown, 

 with the tibiae and tarsi of the anterior and middle legs black. 



In the collection there is a single damaged female 

 specimen of an midescribed species from Sumatra, 

 which resembles very much the present species in its 

 markings, but differs by the following characters : — 



Head, disk of thorax, and elytra more closely punctured ; the 

 vitta3 on the vertex of the head not joined to those on the front ; 

 a white spot on each side of the head above, in addition to the 

 spot on the cheek below; the lateral vittas on the prothorax 

 narrower ; the posterior white point absent from the elytra ; the 

 apices of the elytra transversely truncate, with the sutural spines 

 obsolete. The pubescence much fainter, and of a brownish grey 

 colour.
