Genus Mazarredia, Bolivar. 



1. M. scnlpta, Bolivar, Ann. Soc. Ent. Belg., xxxi, p. 240, 



1887. 



One female example referable to this species, from 

 Assam, India, in the University Museum, Oxford. 



The pronotal process is mutilated in this specimen ; 

 the hind femora measures only 7 mm, instead of 8'5 mm., 

 given by Bolivar, but it agrees with the description of 

 this insect.

A small abbreviated apterous form, coloured testaceous variegated 

 with fuscous. Resembling the allied species abbreviatn, Bolivar, in-

 the short process, anteriorly subtectiform, humeral angles obsolete, the 

 apex of obtuse process barely emarginate ; median carina percurrent 

 •biundulate, forward before the shoulders and posteriorly on process 

 convexly elevated, lateral lobes having the posterior angles quadrate,
