Hah. Burma : Teinzo (L. i^m— May 1886). 



This belongs, like the last species, to the pallida and 

 communis group. It is more easily recognized than most of 

 its allies by its marking and the almost obsolete hind angles 

 of the thorax.

Testaceous, with the entire head, the disc of the pronotum 

 (sometimes divided by a pale median line), the circumference 

 or tlie whole of the scutelluni, tlie inner and outer borders of 

 tiie elytra, a vitta extending backwards from the shoulder, 

 and the grooves and punctures of the elytra black. The 

 pygidium and underside of the body are eitlier entirely pale 

 or partly or entirely black, and the amount of dark pig- 

 mentation generally is extremely variable. The femora are 

 usUfiUy pale and the tibiae and tarsi more or less dark. The 

 boiiy is oval, short, convex, and smooth and sinning. The 

 head is densely and finely punctured, with the clypeus short 

 and its front margin strongly reflexed. The pronotum is 

 finely and rather closely punctured, with the sides strongly 

 rounded, the front angles slightly obtuse and the hind angles 

 rounded away. The base is finely margined. The scutelluni 

 is iinely punctured. The elytra are very deeply striated, 

 \^\t\\ the strise closely punctured, the primary dorsal costaj 

 very narrow and the intermediate intervals very broad, the 

 lateral ones strongly punctured all over and the dorsal ones 

 with deep crowded punctures idong the middle, the latter 

 reduced to a single row posteriorly upon the second sub- 

 sutural interstice, and anteriorly upon the fourth interstice.
