38 Mr. W. F. Kirby on Five new 
@. Caput cornu brevi; prothorax carina transversa leviter pro- 
ducta, non dentata, angulis anticis dentatis, impressionibus ad 
marginem anteriorem fere nullis. 
Long. 19-26, lat. 11-15 mm. 
Typ. in Mus. Walter Rothschild. 
Bluish green, shining; head rounded, produced at the eyes 
into a slight tooth, rugose, with an arcuate, nearly smooth 
impression behind the horn; the latter moderately long, 
recurved, rugose in the male; that of the female is short. 
The prothorax slightly rugose, outer margin rounded but 
somewhat produced in the middle, posterior angles in both 
sexes scarcely rounded; an impressed line above the born, 
quite distinct in the male. The prothoracic horn of the 
male bifurcate and quite straight, moderately long, the 
impressions deep and smooth, approaching each other above 
the horn. The transverse carina of the female is small, 
without teeth. Anterior angles of the prothorax of the 
female with a prominent tooth, the impressions quite obsolete. 
The scutellum slightly impressed before the apex, rugosely 
punctured nearly throughout. Elytra striped with raised 
lines, one of which is situated at the suture, two or three in the 
middle between suture and shoulder, and one at the shoulder 
prominent, especially at the base, obsolete near the apex ; the 
spaces between these lines rugose ; the stripes near the outer 
margin obsolete. 
This species resembles £. yunnanus, Fairm., and E. Potan- 
ini, Sem., in its striated elytra (which give it in the female 
almost the appearance of Geotrupes sylvaticus, Panz.) ; it 
differs, however (so far as we can tell from the descriptions), 
chiefly in the development of the horns and the impressions 
of the prothorax. 
Our specimens (2 g and2 ¢) were taken in North Manipur 
at elevations of 5000 to 8500 feet (Aug. 1889) and in the Naga 
Hills (4 g,2 9); and we have also some specimens (2 6, 
2 2) said to have come from the Punjaub.

THE following new species were received from Mr. Charles 
French, of Melbourne, and were probably collected in that
