lowing iniitcd : bodij elongate-oval, moderately convex, 
without hairs. 
The genera of this subfamily are now becoming very 
numerous, especially having regard to the small number of 
the species. I can see no help for it. The present genus 
possesses a combination of characters, and a facies, that 
will not allow of its being included in any of the previously 
described genera. 
Ctimene Breweri, n. sp. 
Elongate-oval ; entirely of a deep, rich brown, glossy : 
head and prothorax finely, regularly, and somewhat closely 
])unctured, an obscure fovea on the latter at each side the 
basal lobe ; scutellum finely punctured ; elytra somewhat 
closely, but irregularly rugose-punctate, the punctures 
much larger than those on the head and prothorax ; under-

Ectyche* scabripennis, n. sp. 
Oblong, black, slightly shining ; body above and legs 
rather densely clothed with long, erect, black hau-s : head 
and thorax densely cellulose-punctate, the punctiu'es mode- 
rate, mostly a little oblong ; prothorax transverse, convex, 
very feebly emarginate in fi-ont, sides regularly and rather 
strongly roimded, emarginatiou of hind angles rather slight, 
without a tooth in the centre ; elytra subdepressed, trun- 
cate at base, shoulders slightly obliquely truncated, the 
humeral angle slightly dentiform ; each Avitli nine shallow 
l)imcturcd grooves, the punctures rather large, slightly 
oblong, approximate ; the intervals rough with rather 
close set, strongly depressed tubercles, each having a 
rounded ]nincture at their apex behind, or, in other words, 
coarsely nuu-icate-punctate : tibiix; normal ; underside, legs, 
and antenna? dark brown ; palpi red ; breasts haixy ; flanks 
of prothorax longitudinally undidate-]ilicate : meso- and 
meta-thoracic parapleures, and epipleural fold, very coarsely 
puuctm'cd : antennae long, filiform, strongly perfoliate ; 3rd
