and is rather thickly punctured; the twelfth and thir- 
teenth striz are regular, the interval between them 
narrow; there are a few punctures on the interval be- 
tween the thirteenth and fourteenth strie. The pygidium 
is triangular, nearly twice as broad as long, strongly 
impressed on each side, convex in the middle, finely 
margined, rather thickly and strongly punctured, the 
punctures transverse and open posteriorly; the apex is 
obtusely notched in the middle. The anterior tibie are 
slender and linear; the larger claw of the anterior and 
intermediate pairs is bifid, the claws of the posterior 
tarsi are simple. Length 124 lines. 
Hab. Sumatra. A single example captured by Mr. 
Charles Curtis, after whom I have named it. 
This species, from the prolonged mesosternal process 
and the curiously irregular intervals of the strie of the 
elytra, approaches Popilia regine, Newman, but it is of 
quite a different form, and it appears to me best placed 
near Anomala (Spilota) irrorella, Castelnau. 
CETONIIDA. 
Macronota anceps. 
Dull black; thorax moderately thickly punctured 
with semicircular punctures, with a somewhat broad 
shallow impression at the posterior portion of the 
disk, noticeable particularly in the female. Elytra with 
numerous fine wrinkled striz, which are more or less 
obscured by the velvety clothing. Hach elytron has 
three dull red stripes; the first is short and is close 
to the scutellum; the second extends from the shoulder 
to the apex, and is in the slightest degree raised; 
the third is marginal: there is a small yellow spot below 
the shoulder, between the second and third red stripes ; 
another on the disk at the apex of the first red stripe ; 
and a very small one behind the middle, between the 
second and third stripes. The pygidium is slightly 
convex, rather closely punctured, and entirely covered 
with yellow clothing in the male; the female has a slight 
longitudinal impression. The femora (except at the apex) 
and the tibiw are pitchy red. The anterior tibize have 
three teeth, but the first one is scarcely noticeable in the 
male. The head has two longitudinal yellow lines. The 
thorax has two yellow lines on the disk which unite
