New Species of Coleoptera. 77 
joribus, duabus aliis minutis. Corpus infra fusco-nigrum, 
lateribus utrinque flavo-vittatis. 
Long. lin. 27, lat. lin. 9. 
The present insect is closely allied to Lamia Royli, described 
by me in the Zoological Transactions, &c. vol. i. p. 103. It dif- 
fers in having its antennz less scabrous. It is scarcely so long 
as L. Roylu, but is broader and more robust. In the former 
insect the spines at the apex are merely sutural, whilst in the pre- 
sent species they are more strongly marked internally, as well as 
laterally. In some specimens the two smaller yellow spots are 
wanting. The above insect is dedicated in honour of Ezra Downes, 
Esq., one of the most zealous collectors of Oriental Entomology. 
Some valuable communications may shortly be expected from him, 
particularly in relation to the East Indian Chalcidide.

This insect I received from Silhet from Captain Parry’s col- 
lection, and I have also received it from the Kasyah Hills by 
means of Dr, Cantor.
