Rhynchophorous Coleoptera of Japan. 103 



This species might be separated as a distinct genus. A 

 single example only was found at Kashiwagi^ June ] 9th, 

 1881. 



9. Phyllohins incomptns, n. sp. 



Dense griseo-squamosus, iii elytris maculis obscuris indistinct is 

 subvariegatus, antennis rufis ; femoribus vix incrassatis, dente 

 minuto armatis. Long. 5h-G mm. 



This appears to be somewhat allied to P. pomonx, 

 though of a different colour and with a longer rostrum. 

 The upper surface is densely covered with adpressed 

 scales, without any mixture of pubescence : the scales 

 are of a very pallid grey colour, and on the elytra are 

 very faintly mottled by some irregularly distributed 

 darker patches. The antennae are unicolorous, pale red. 

 The thorax is short only slightly curved at the sides, and 

 a little narrowed towards the front. The elytra are 

 rather long, become distinctly broader behind, and 

 notwithstanding their dense clothing of scales have very 

 evident punctate-strite. The under surface is densely 

 squamose. The legs are pale red, but much clothed 

 with scales and seta3, there is a distinct tooth on the 

 middle and posterior femora. I do not see any sexual 

 differences. 



Miyanoshita. 



10, PhyJlohius leecJii, n. sp. 



Dense griseo-squamosus, hand variegatus, antennis rufis ; 

 femoribus in medio leviter incrassatis, ncc angulatis, nee dentatis. 

 Long. 5 mm. 



This is extremely closely allied to P. incomphis, but 

 must be separated on account of the unarmed femora, 



I have a single specimen from the late Mr, Fryer's 

 collection, given me by J. H. Leech, Esq., and there is a 

 specimen in Mr. Lewis' series of Phyllohms found by 

 him at Kashiwagi on 16th June, 1881. The specimen 

 from Mr. Fryer's collection has the antennae considerably 

 shorter than they are in P. incomptus, or in the example 

 of P. leechi from Kashiwagi.
