^Elara arrogans. (PI. IV. fig. 5.) 

 Niphona arrogans, Pascoe, Journ. of Entom. i. 338. 



]E. fusca, griseo-pubescens, varia ; prothorace medio sex- 

 cristato ; elytris elongatis, rude punctatis, basi subciistatis, 

 apice emarginatis. 



Hab. — Sarawak. 



Dark brown, with a pale greyish pubescence, varied with darker 

 grey or light brown ; liead greyish with a few scattered punctures ; 

 mandibles dark brown ; palpi luteous ; prothorax pale brownish 

 and grey, or greyish and fulvous posteriorly, the disc with a series 

 of six short longitudinal crests, forming a curved line sweeping 

 round from the two lateral tubercles to near the base ; scutellum 

 small, transverse ; elytra rugosely subplicate longitudinally, with 

 numerous coarse crowded punctures, gradually tapering from the 

 base, and a little prolonged posteriorly, the apex deeply emar- 

 ginate ; in one specimen the colour is lighter, the grey on the 

 elytra being partially replaced by white ; body beneath covered 

 with a dull grey pile ; legs varied with grey and brown ; antennae 

 nearly as long as the body in the male, much shorter in the female, 

 brown, obscurely spotted with grey. 



Length 10 — 11 lines.

IschiopUtes , J. Thoms., Syst. Ceramb. p. 53. 



Caput antice transversum, tuberibus antenniferis distantibus. 



Ocuti ampli, profunde emarginati. Anlcnnce validse, corpore 



paulo longiores ; scapus modice clavatus, articulo tertio scapo 



longiore, quarto et quinto gradalim brevioribus, caeteris aequa- 



libus, ultimo apice recto. Prothorax tumidus, irregularis, late- 



ribus fere obsolete tuberculatus. Elytra oblonga, apice emar- 



ginata. Pedes robusti ; protibice curvatse, intus dentatae. Coxes 



antice maribus spinosag. Mesoslernum antice productum. 



When the single species composing this genus was published, 



I referred it to Sijmphyletes ; it has, however, a habit different 



from any of the species of that genus, and the presence of a strong 



tooth on the anterior tibiae of the male is a sufficient justification 



for separating it. The spine on the anterior coxae is unusually 



long, and of course is not present in the female.

 Symphyleles metutus, Pascoe, Trans. Ent. Soc. ser. 2, v. 40. 

 I. pube grisea fuscaque mixtus, et ochraceo-irroratus ; elytris
