Batocera Thomsonii. 

 Javet, Arch. Ent. i. 412, pi. xx. fig. 2. 

 B. fusca, obscure griseo-pubescens ; scapo ($) basin versus 

 rugoso; scutello elytrisque maculis 4 — 6, praecipue duablis 

 in medio maximis, niveis, apicibus truncatis, angulis spinosis, 

 ($) minus productis ; tibiis anticis {$) modice elongatis. 

 Hab. — Sarawak, Singapore, Penang. 



Dark brown, with a dull yellowish-grey pubescence ; scape (in the 

 males) roughly punctured at the base, the intervals rising into 

 short irregular folds ; other characters as in B. octomaculata, but 

 the third joint of the antennae is considerably longer in both 

 sexes, and, in what are apparently the normal specimens, there is 

 only one large spot in the middle of each elytron, with perhaps two 

 or three mere points, not always the same number on both sides ; 

 the exterior spine at the apex is as large as the sutural in the 

 male, and is only a little less so in the female ; the fore and inter- 

 mediate legs are also more robust and longer than in the preced- 

 ing. 



Length 15 — 24 lines.
