Dr. J. L. Hancock’s Third Paper on the 
short and indistinct, but the rest from the seventh to the terminal 
apical article strongly elongate. Pronotum anteriorly truncate, 
posteriorly lengthily acuminate-subulate e.xtended beyond the hind 
femoral apices; dorsum deplanate, between the shoulders scarcely 
widened; humeral angles substraight, transversely subrounded; 
median carina percurrent but low barely elevated; anterior prozonal 
carinae short and j^arallel; lateral lobes of pronotum somewhat 
small, margin anteriorly arcuate; posterior angles turned down 
and obliquely excised. Elytra small, widened backward, the apices 
rounded, the central external two-thirds marked with black; wings 
perfectly explicate, extended barely beyond the pronotal apex. 
Anterior femora strongly elongate, superior margins little com¬ 
pressed basallj' and serrulate, below entire; middle femora elongate, 
superior carinae comi^ressed minutely serrulate, and terminating in 
an apical spine, ventral carinae little compre.ssed subentire or barely 
undulate; posterior femora slender, superior carinae forward arcuate, 
posteriorly terminating in distinct antegenicular denticle, very 
minutely serrulate, genicular apical lobe distinctly produced ; ventral 
carinae slightly curvate, carinae of external paginae distinct and 
between them bearing oblique granulate rugae; posterior tibiae 
narrow, the canthi minutely serrulate and bearing many very small 
denticles; first and third articles of posterior tarsi equal in length; 
the third tarsal article distinctly clavate, the three pulvilli of the 
first tarsal article equal in length and obtuse below. Colour dark 
cinero-griseous, the hind tibiae infuscate, but light annulate behind 
the knees. 
Entire length of body, $, 21‘2 mm.; pronotum, 13‘8 mm.; 
posterior femora, 6 mm.; hind tibiae, 5 mm.; antennae, 6 mm. One 
example in the author’s collection. 
Locality: Padang Pandjaiig, West Sumatra (Rolle). 
This species is remarkable in the form of the long 
antennae, produced vertex, globose eyes, and clavate form 
of the third article of the posterior tarsi. Type in the 
author’s collection. 
Genus Thoradonta, Hancock. 
Trans. Entom. Soc. Loudon, p. 407, 1908. 
This genus is represented by small forms with sub¬ 
quadrate vertex; elongate antennae inserted below the 
eyes; the pronotum anteriorly truncate, posteriorly abbre¬ 
viated acuminate; with the median carina of pronotum 
sinuate or bicristate; dorsum widened between the obtuse
