162 Phylophaga Mulayana. 



viata, plaga infra medium, sursum ramulum ad fasciam eniit- 



tente, tuberculoque nigro-purpureis. 

 Long. 4 lin. 

 Hab. Celebes, Morty Island. 



Less cylindrical than any of the three preceding species. An- 

 tennae three-fourths the length of the body, slender, filiform. 

 Thorax not longer than broad, less globose than in C. insign'is, 

 metallic- green, less bright on the disk. Elytra oblong, slightly 

 narrowed from the base towards the apex, each furnished near the 

 apex, close to the sutural border, with a broad obtuse tuberosity; 

 humeral callus prominent ; basilar space slightly raised, bounded 

 beneath and externally by a deep excavation ; surface punctate- 

 striate, interspaces plane on the anterior disk, costate posteriorly 

 and on the lateral border. 



B. Body non-metallic, elytra rugose-punctate. 



5. Chrysopida murina, n. sp. 



Subelongata, subcylindrica, picea, subopaca,- crebre rugoso- 

 punciata, pube argenteo-grisea sat dense vestita ; elytris irre- 

 gulariter punctatis, utrisque fascia subinterrupta, vix ante 

 medium disci exterioris posita, obscure fulva, ornatis. 



Long. 3^ lin. 



Hab. Phdippine Islands. 



Head sirongly but not very closely punctured; epistome 

 not distinctly separated from the front, its anterior border 

 concave-emarginate ; antennae two-thirds the lengtii of the body, 

 slightly thickened towards the apex. Thorax not longer than 

 br"oad, subcyiindrical, subglobose above, sides slightly but re- 

 gularly rounded, lateral border nearly obsolete ; surface closely 

 rugose-punctate, clothed with subdepressed griseous hairs. Elytra 

 broadly oblong, much broader than the thorax, not depressed 

 below the basilar space, clotlied with silvery-white hairs, surface 

 coarsely and closely pimctate, interspaces thickened. 



The non-metallic dull colouring of C. murina, together with the 

 close irregular punctuation of its thorax and elytra, give it an en- 

 tirely different aspect to that of any other insect of the genus ; in 

 all structural characters, however, it closely agrees with the metallic 

 species.
