Longicornia MaUtTjana. 109 



apical black is crossed by three pure white lines, and there is a 

 dash of black from each shoulder. Returning to C. hlslriomca 

 we have in one direction the white entirely disappearing, except 

 the central thoracic stripe prolonged a little on the scutellum and 

 elytra, and in another the band and sutural stripe taking a finely 

 linear form. This is about the most simple of all the varieties, 

 but starting from this we first see a little white dash near the 

 shoulder, and then this is directed obliquely inwards with a gentle 

 curve until it approaches the middle of the elytron, when it takes 

 another turn downwards and backwards, and joins the posterior 

 line. When in addition to this there is an ocellate spot near the 

 apex we have " Vanihorensis." Generally there are only inde- 

 finite indications of this spot. 



Cacia inculta. 

 Pascoe, Trans. Ent. Soc. ser. 2, iv. 102. 



C. fusca, pube interrupta flavida induta; prothorace transverso; 



elytris basi subcristatis, granulosis, pone humeros fascia 



curvata fusca. 

 Hab. — Singapore, Sarawak. 



Dark brown, with an interrupted greyish-yellow pile ; head and 

 prothorax rather finely punctured ; the latier transverse and its 

 punctures surrounded by the naked derm, these portions some- 

 times confluent and forming black irregular patches ; this occurs 

 also on the elytra, but here the principal patch takes the Ibrm of 

 a broad curved band behind the shoulders, sometimes another 

 distinct but irregular band towards the apex, bordered or not by 

 a fine line of yellow hairs, these lines occasionally dividing the 

 band into small patches, or the whole of the elytra behind the 

 shoulders may be more or less bare of pubescence except a little 

 towards the apex, the ridge at the base granulose ; scutellum 

 sometimes pale buff; body beneath brown, shining, the sides witii 

 a fulvous-brown pile ; legs fulvous, more or less varied with brown 

 or black, the tibiae generally black or dark brown with the 

 middle thiid fulvous, the tarsi of the two posterior pairs with the 

 two basiil joints dark, the remainder, except the claws, fulvous ; 

 antennae with or without a black tuft at the apex of the fourth 

 joint ; the third joint sometimes furnished with a slight spine at 

 its tip (in the Sarawak examples).
