Mr, G. ©. Champion on the 
50. Idgia nitida, sp. n. 
Elongate, narrow, shining, finely pubescent, and very 
sparsely setose ; testaceous, the head between and behind 
the eyes, and a small apical patch on the elytra, black. 
Head slightly produced in front, grooved between the eyes, 
the labrum transverse, convex; eyes very large, subcon- 
tiguous in g, more distant in ?; antenne slender, sub- 
filiform, joint 11 concave, a little longer than 10. Prothorax 
about as long as broad, not wider than the head in ¢, 
broader in @ , feebly sinuate at the sides posteriorly. Elytra 
elongate, finely, closely, but not very densely punctate, the 
interspaces shining. Legs slender. 
g. Anterior tarsal joints 1-3 with a black comb along 
their inner edge; posterior tibiz very slightly curved ; 
terminal dorsal segment rounded at tip. Genital armature ; 
lateral.lobes rather short ; median lobe drawn out into a 
long, narrow, shghtly curved point. 
Length (excl. head) 84-104, breadth 2}-34 mm. (¢ 9.) 
Hab. Invia (Stebbing), Karachi (T. R. Bell), Lahore 
(coll. Andrewes). 
Six females and two males, both the latter in a bad state 
of preservation, the locality on Mr. Stebbing’s specimens 
illegible. Separable from the numerous similarly coloured 
forms by the rather sparsely punctate, shining elytra, and 
the wholly testaceous antenne, ante-ocular portion of the 
head, and legs.
