Lonyicornia Malayana. 25 



apex of the elytra, and covered with a delicate greyish pubescence, 

 which scarcely obscures the colour of the derm as in the other 

 species. Head about as broad as the prothorax, the latter about 

 a fifth longer than broad, and remotely punctured, the angle at 

 the side almost resembling a spine ; scutellum transversely qua- 

 drangular ; elytra gradually narrower from the base to the rounded 

 apex, with somewhat coarse scattered punctures ; body beneath 

 and legs covered with a greyish pile ; antennae about two and a 

 half times as long as the body, pale reddish-brown. 

 Length 4 lines. 



/Eschopalcea tomentosa. 



JE. fere tota grisea ; prothorace vix longiore quam latiore ; 

 elytris lateribus parallelis. 



Hab. — Singapore, Macassar. 



Entirely covered with a rough greyish pubescence except over 

 the numerous punctures; these are much larger and more closely 

 placed than in the last; the prothorax is nearly equal in length 

 and breadth if the angles be included, and the antennae are 

 perceptibly finer, especially towards the apex. 



Length 3| lines. 



jEschopalcea grisella. 

 M. angustior, pallide grisea ; prothorace vix longiore quam 



latiore ; elytris lateribus fere parallelis. 

 Hah. — Aru. 



Narrower than the last, but also covered with a greyish pubes- 

 cence, paler and thinner, however, and somewhat ragged in its 

 dispersion, with punctures smaller and more scattered ; the tarsi 

 more slender, and the antennae scarcely twice as long as the body. 

 Length 3 lines. 



JEschopalcea laticolUs. 



M. grisea ; prothorace latiore, vel baud longiore quam latiore, 

 elytrorum basi fere aequale. 



ifai.— Mysol. 



Stouter in all its parts than the three preceding, and covered 

 with a coarse greyish pubescence, interrupted over the punctures, 

 these are smaller than in JE. tomentosa, but are equally crowded, 

 and the prothorax, including the angles, is nearly as wide as are the 

 elytra at the base, and is, perhaps, a trifle broader than it is long ; 

 antennae rather more than twice as long as the body. 



Length 3 — 4 lines.
