72 Mr. David Sharp on the 



legs shorter and stouter than nsuah Antennas yellow, 

 the apical joints bead-like ; 3rd joint longer than 2nd, 

 about equal to the 4th, 1 0th a little stouter than 9th, only 

 a little longer than broad, lltli joint distinctly broader 

 than 10th. Head rather broader than the thorax, of a 

 tawny colour, not much constricted in front, the eyes only 

 moderately prominent ; it is densely punctured and not 

 shining. Thorax rather narrower than the elytra, shorter 

 than the head, similar in colour to it, considerably nar- 

 rowed behind ; densely punctured, not shining. Elytra 

 distinctly longer than the thorax, and slightly paler in 

 colour, densely and rugosely ])unctured, just a little less 

 dull than head and thorax. Hind body densely punctured, 

 the 6th segment black, and the 7th also infuscate. Legs 

 short and stout, yellow. Metasternum short, coarsely 

 punctured. The 7th segment of the hind body in the 

 male is furnished on the under side with a narrow but 

 rather deep triangular notch.

Obs. — Two individuals differ from the rest, in being 

 just a little longer and narrower, ^\\t\\ the apical joints of 

 antennas and elytra a little longer, and it is possible they 

 may prove to be a different species. 



133. Sunius ocniatus, n. sp. Testaceus, vix nitidus,

Closely allied to S. hrevipes, but certainly quite distinct 

 from it by the following characters. Paler in colour, 

 rather more elongate and fragilely formed, the antennas a 

 little longer, the eyes markedly convex and large, the 

 elytra a little longer and more shining, the hind body 

 more constricted at the base and more finely punctured, 

 with the 7th segment paler in colour; the metasternum 

 longer and less coarsely punctm-ed, the notch of the 7th 

 segment in the male broader. 



Though I have seen only one female specimen of this 

 species from Japan, Mr. Lewis has sent me several others 

 from China. 



Found with S. hrevipes. 



134. Sunius^ hicolon, n. sp. Elongatus, angustus, tes- 

 taceus, elytro singulo apicem versus, plaga nigra elongata.
