Mr. H. E. Andrewcs on Oriental Carabidae. 501 



rounded, a pair of seise beneath near margin, another pair 

 further back near middle, paraglossia about two-thirds as long- 

 as ligula ; tooth and lobes of mentum long, narrow, and 

 pointed, tooth setose on outer margin, with a few irregularly 

 disposed seta? on surface, epilobes visible on lower half of 

 inner side of lobes ; labial palpi with penultimate joint short, 

 strongly dilated within, bisetose on apex of dilated part, last 

 joint cylindrical, rounded at apex, a little longer than pen- 

 ultimate, maxillaries stout, antepenultimate contracted at 

 extremities, obliquely sulcate on underside ; antennae stout, 

 joint 1 = 2 + 3, 2 to 11 approximately equal, clypeus enaar- 

 ginate, labrum with equidistant seta?, front and hind ones on 

 margin, middle one at a little distance from margin. 



Prothorax transverse, a little wider than head, sides mode- 

 rately rounded in front, sinuate behind, hind angles right, 

 sides of base oblique but straight, median line well marked on 

 disk, basal fovea? deep, surface coarsely but not very closely 

 punctate, less coarsely than head. 



Elytra elongate-parallel, punctate-striate, a row of punc- 

 tures on each side of striae, which become irregular close to 

 apex only, intervals 8 and 9 closely and irregularly punctate, 

 testaceous spot round, covering intervals 3-7. 



Superficially resembling M. trimaculatus, Oliv., but smaller 

 and without the common apical spot, regular puncturation of 

 elytra continued to near apex, prothorax narrower, gente less 

 sharply contracted to neck ; mentum, palpi, and ligula widely 

 different.

 Jensen), 1 ex. — British Museum. 



Laos : Ban Houei, 1 ex. Tonkin : Hoabinh, 1 ex. (R. Vi- 

 tal! s de Salvo za). 



The type (China) is in the British Museum. 



Macrochilus tripustulatus, Dej. 



Length 15*0 mm. 



Chaudoir has pointed out some of the differences between 

 this species and M. trimaculatus, Oliv. These consist in the 

 larger and wider head, larger (and I may add much move 

 gently sloping) gena?, smaller and less projecting eyes, shorter, 

 thicker, and almost moniliform antenna?, and coarser punctu- 

 ration ; prothorax wider, shorter, more coarsely punctate, 

 hind angles rather more rounded ; elytra hardly differing. 

 Joints of tarsi shorter and wider. Colour of mouth-parts, 

 antenna?, labrum, ventral surface, and legs (except femora) 

 darker.
