348 Mr. G. Lewis on some 
Xestipyge Fry, sp. n. 
Ovata, convexa, nigra, nitida; fronte distincte punctata; elytris 
striis 1*-4™ integris, 5"-6* brevibus ; pygidio utrinque profunde 
foveolato. 
L. 23 mill, 
Oval, convex, black and shining; the head striate over the 
eyes only, sparsely punctate, punctures round and each one 
distinct ; the thorax smooth on the disk, with a broad margin 
of very distinct punctures at the sides, at the base there are 
two large, shallow, scutellar punctures close to each other and 
five or eight smaller and deeper punctures set along the basal 
edge; the elytra, strie 1-4 complete, 5-6 apical, but passing 
beyond the dorsal centre and punctiform at the ends, 4-6 
being somewhat crenulate ; the propygidium is transversely 
rather thickly punctured; the pygidium is smooth in the 
median area, with two large and deep fovez, one on each side 
at the base, apex with a few large punctures; the prosternum, 
the keel is broad and rather short, with well-marked lateral 
strie, feebly sinuous near the coxe, hamate in front; the 
mesosternum feebly emarginate, marginal stria complete, 
obsoletely crenulate, transverse stria slightly bent in. the 
middle, with eight or nine crenulations, and continuing along 
the sides of the metasternum ; the first segment of the abdo- 
men has large punctures posteriorly and at the sides; the 
anterior tibie are 3—4-dentate. 
This species is the most remarkable in this series. It is 
congenerie with Homalister ornatus, Reitter, 1880, and it is 
doubtful whether Xest’pyge was sufticiently characterized by 
Marseul to be given precedence ; otherwise it has some years’ 
priority.

Notodoma solstitiale, sp. n. 
Globosum, flavo-rufum, nitidum ; pedibus flavis; elytris striis 1*—28

mesosterno stria transversa nulla. 
L. 2} mill. 
Globose, yellowish red, shining; the forehead with shallow 
punctures, not closely set, eyes a little obliquely placed; the 
thorax clearly and evenly, not densely punctured, marginal 
stria well-marked; the elytra are pale in colour at the base, 
but without definite white spots, striae 1-2 are complete, 
third absent, fourth and a sutural joined at the base, inter-
