Batocera IcBna. 

 J. Thomson, Arch. Ent. i. 450. 

 B. nigra, nitlda, pube fulvo-ferruginea tecta ; elytris trigonatis, 

 vage punctatis, niveo-maculatis, maculis saepissime sex vel 

 aliquando fere obsoletis, apicibus truncatis, spina suturali 

 elongata. 

 Hab.—kvvx. 



Black, shining, with a yellowish-ferruginous pubescence ; head 

 dark tawny, rather rugose in front ; prothorax immaculate, strongly 

 transversely sulcate, the disk corrugated ; scutellum fulvous ; 

 • elytra trigonate, granules rather large at the base, gradually passing 

 into punctures at the middle ; with impressed spots filled with a 

 snowy-white tomentum, usually three on each, sometimes nearly 

 obsolete, with every variety between ; spines truncate, with the 

 sutural angle spined, the external broadly apiculate ; body beneath 

 pubescent, fulvous, lateral stripe absent from the head ; legs and 

 antennae thinly pubescent. 

 Length 20 — 26 lines. 



Resembles B. octomaculala, but the elytra are more trigonate, 

 and, inter alia, the prothorax is immaculate and the head without 

 the white blotch behind the eyes. 



Batocera cinnamomea. 



B. fusca ; capite, prothorace, antennisque basi pallide cinereo- 

 pubescentibus ; scutello albo-tomentoso ; elytris ferrugineis, 

 pube cinnamomea dense tectis. 



Hab. — Sula. 



Dark brown ; head, prothoi'ax, and base of the antennae with a 

 thin ashy pubescence; scutellum densely tomentose, white; elytra 

 reddish-ferruginous, covered with a dense brownish-fulvous or 

 cinnamon-coloured pubescence, rather lighter at the base and 

 furnished with a few granules only, the rest of the elytra impunc- 

 tate, the apex slightly sinuate, with the sutural angle spined ; 

 head impunctate ; prothorax without any spots, its centre rather 

 free of irregularities ; body beneath with a white silvery pubes- 

 cence, no distinct lateral stripe ; legs with a thin ashy pile. 



Length 36 lines. 



There is only a female specimen in this collection, but the 

 uniform cinnamon pubescence of the elytra is sufficiently distinc- 

 tive to keep it apart from any other known to me.
