Longicornia Maluyana. 655 



Deep black with the knees red, or black with the legs 

 orange^ or black with the basal half of the elytra bright 

 red, or a red band across the elytra, or two bands, or a 

 red spot only on each side; elytra closely punctured and 

 having a rough appearance under the lens; the joints of 

 the antennae, from the fourth inclusive, much broader 

 than in E. maxillosus. 



This is a very variable species in regard to colour ; of 

 fifteen individuals I have had under examination, no two 

 were alike. As a species it is distinguished from E. max- 

 illosus by its strongly dilated antennas and the stoutness 

 of the tibiae, particularly of the posterior pair. The male 

 is unknown. 



EURYCLEA. 



Euryclea, J. Thomson, Syst. Ceramb. p. 196 ; Lacordaire, 

 Gen. ix. 176. 



Caput subangustatum. Pedes postici valde elongati; 

 femora attenuata; tibim posticae flexuosae; caetera 

 ut in Euryphago. 



M. Thomson has not stated the characters by which 

 this genus is differentiated from Euryphagus. So far as 

 I have seen, all the specimens found by Mr. Wallace are 

 apparently females. 



Euryclea cardinalis. 



Eurycephalus cardinalis, J. Thomson, Essai &c., p. 211. 



E. atra, capite prothoraceque rubris, elytris pallide 

 flavescentibus, postice atris. 



Hah. — Singapore; Sarawak. 



Opaque above ; head and prothorax brick-red, closely 

 punctured ; scutellum and the posterior third of the elytra 

 black, the anterior two-thirds pale yellowish-ochre, finely 

 punctured; beneath, head and propectus red, metatho- 

 rax, abdomen, legs, and antennas, black and shining. 



Length 9 lines. 



This handsome insect is found about newly fallen 

 timber; it flies slowly, with a humming noise. 



DlSTENIIN^. 



The Bisteniinm, and another subfamily, which, although 

 Malayan, does not occur in Mr. Wallace's collection, are
