326 Longicornia Malayana. 



a considerable distance from the base of the antennae is a more 

 abnormal arrangement. In a closely allied genus — Eucomatocera 

 — the upper lobe is directly joined to the lower, a slight indentation 

 marking the point of union. In Euthuonis and Spalacopsis, the 

 upper lobe is wanting ; while in Dorcasta and Api'osopus the eyes 

 have nearly come back to their normal form. All these genera 

 are clearly allied. The species described below differs, inter alia, 

 from T. insignis, a species from Hong-Kong, Malacca, and Manilla, 

 in its narrower form, and in the apices of its elytra being straight, 

 not^turned outwards. 



Tetraglenes fusiformis. 



T. fusca, griseo-lanuginosa ; elytris apicibus recte acuminatis. 



Hah, — Sarawak. 



Pitchy-brown, thinly covered with short greyish hairs ; head 

 and prothorax finely punctured, the latter rather narrower than 

 the head, abruptly sloped at the sides so as to present the 

 appearance of lines ; scutellum rather broad, covered with a silky 

 pile ; elytra more coarsely punctured than the prothorax, broadest 

 behind the middle, the apices prolonged but not curved outwards ; 

 body beneath, legs and antennae brownish-grey, the latter about 

 as long as the body. 



Length 4 lines. 



PoTHYNE. 



Pothyne, J. Thomson, Syst. Ceramb. p. 97. 



Caput paulo inclinatum, baud productum ; tuberibus anten- 



niferis validis, divergentibus, basi contiguis. Ocuh mediocres, 



emarginati. Antennce corpore longiores, fimbriatse; scapo 



cylindrico, elytra fere attingente ; articulo tertio sub-aequale ; 



caeteris brevioribus. Prothorax cylindricus, inermis. Elytra 



elongata, parallela, apicibus sub-sinuatis. Pedes brevissimi, 



robusti ; tarsi breves, aequales, articulo ultimo valido. Pro- 



et meso-sterna declivia. 



These characters are drawn up from a specimen kindly sent to 



me by M. Thomson under the name of Pothtjne Malasiaca, which 



differs somewhat from the description of his P. variegata. The head 



is not much inclined in this genus, nor is it produced at the base of 



the antennary tubers ; in these respects it may be considered to 



approximate to the Saperdlnce, to which perhaps it might be more 



desirable to attacii it. M. J. Thomson's species apparently differs 



from the one described below in its "elytra obsolete punctata."
