642 Longicornia Malayana. 



There is no character among the Longicorns subject to 

 fewer exceptions than the shortness of the second joint 

 of the antennge, but in this genus it is only about a third 

 less in length than the following joint, which on the con- 

 trary is very frequently the longest. In another respect 

 the antennae are approximate to those of the last genus, 

 in that they are gradually thickened towards the apex. 

 The habit of the genus is more with Ipomoria than Epi- 

 pedocera, but with the latter it appears to be more closely 

 allied, on account of the nearly entire eyes.

Professor Westwood has described the type of this 

 curious genus — C. methocoides — with his usual minute- 

 ness, but I have been obliged to omit some of his charac- 

 ters, in order to permit the following species to be
