Longicortiia Malaydna. 339 



Ser'ixia cephcihtes. 

 Pascoe, JoLiin. of Entom. i. S5^. 



S. rufo-testacea, sericea ; elytris subangustatis, basi excepta 

 nigricantibiis, apicibus rotundatis albicaniibus ; antennis cor- 

 pore duplo longioribus, fuscis, scapo infra et basi articuli 

 quarti testaceis. 



Hab. — Batchian, Morty, Saylee. 



Pale reddisb-testaceous, very silky and sbiny ; head and pro- 

 tliorax obsoletely punctured, covered with a short, shghtly silky 

 pubescence, the former often considerably broader than the pro- 

 thorax ; scutellum subtransverse, bilobed at the apex ; elytra 

 rather narrow, seriate-punctate anteriorly, pubescence coarse, 

 greyish under the lens, but to the eye brownish-black, except at 

 the base, the apices whitish, and rounded ; body beneath and legs 

 pale testaceous; antennae more than twice as long as the body, 

 blackish-brown, except the under surface of the scape and the 

 base of the fourth joint. 



Length 3\ — 4 lines. 



The head varies in breadth and the antennae in length. One 

 of Mr. Wallace's specimens (ticketed $) has the elytra entirely 

 of a rich fulvous-yellow; another specimen (^) is so very silky 

 as almost to lose the dark colour of the elytra in certain lights. 

 Prom a slip of the pen, or in some other way, the scutellum was 

 originally stated to be triangular ; it is, however, as it is here 

 described.
