240 Mr. J. S. Baly's Descriptions of 



edge of which is clothed with fulvous hairs ; hinder tibije curved at 

 the base, thence nearly straight to the apex, the middle portion 

 slightly flexuose ; apex strongly mucronate, armed on either side 

 with a stout tooth, the outer one large and slightly curved, the 

 inner one very short ; inner edge notched at the base, deeply 

 grooved and sparingly clothed with pale pubescence ; basal seg- 

 ment of abdomen flattened, remotely punctured, very sparingly 

 dotted with a few fulvous hairs. 



Hab. Borneo ; collected by the late Madame Pfeiffer. 



I know but a single specimen (in my own collection) of this 

 fine insect ; it bears a very much stronger resemblance to S, su- 

 perbn and quadraticoUis than to S, Druryi and its congeners, with 

 which insects, however, from the possession of a second tooth at 

 the apex of the lower edge of its hinder femora, it must be placed ; 

 but the position of this tooth is very different — instead of being 

 situated in the notch itself, as in the above species, it is placed at 

 its posterior angle.
