Longicornia Malay ana. 149 



Epilysta mucida. (PI. IX. fig. 7.) 



E. fusca, pube griseo-ochrea tecta; elytris pone medium macula 

 alba obliqua. 



Hab. — Sarawak. 



Brown, covered with a short greyish-ochreous pile ; head 

 sparingly punctured; lower border of the lip yellowish; pro- 

 thorax nearly quadrate, very slightly rounded at the sides, the 

 scantier pubescence on the disc forming a brownish stripe; scu- 

 tellum broad, rounded behind ; elytra nearly four times as long 

 as the prothorax, seriate-punctate, an oblique white spot behind 

 the middle, and traces of two or three other spots towards the 

 base ; body beneath with a coarse greyish pile 5 antennae about 

 as long as the body, the joints palish at the base; legs sparsely 

 pubescent. 



Length 5 lines. 



EUCLEA. 



Euclea, Newman, The Entom. i. 290. 



Caput magnum, antice latum, et longitudinaliter plus rainusve 



carinatum, vertice elevato, tuberibus antenniferis brevissimis, 



remotis. Oculi profunde divisi. Anleniice breves, graciles ; 



scapo claviformi ; articulo tertio longiore ; quarto paulo bre- 



viore ; ceteris multo brevioribus, gradatim decrescentibus. 



Labriim et palpi parvi. MandibulcB robiistae. Prothorax 



capite vix latior, subcylindricus, antice lateraliter dentatus, 



basi bisinuatus. Ehjtta elongata, parallela, humeris baud 



prominentibus, apice mutica. Pedes breves, robusti. Pro- et 



vieso-sterna elevata. Propectus elongatum. 



A fine and very distinct genus, remarkable for its broad front 



and elevated vertex, and particularly for its elongate propectus, 



as in the Monochamince. The prothorax has a well-marked tooth 



on each side (not two, as Mr. Newman's description seems to 



imply) in the type E. albata, but this becomes a mere tubercle in 



the other species, and in one, E. nigritarsis, there is scarcely a 



vestige of it. There are four* Manillan species in addition to the 



two here described. 



* Two of these are, I believe, undescribed. 



Euclea capita. 

 E. nigra, nitida, pube ochraceo-irrorata ; elytris punctatis, fascia latissima 



dense albo-piibescente, ad suturam interrupta, ornatis. 

 Hab. — Manilla. 

 Nearly as large as E. albata {II lines), but narrower ; prothorax less parallel
