480 Mr. H. B. Andrewes on Oriental Carabide. 
Legs pilose, front tibie with a spine at apex and another 
at base of emargination. 
The front tarsi in the g with three squarely dilated joints, 
each with a pad of hairs beneath; joint 4 emarginate and 
furnished at apex with a tuft of very long hairs. Claws 
simple, long, and very thin. 
The name is derived from a Sanskrit word meaning 
hairy. 
There is only one known species, which has already been 
twice described, viz. :— 
Chlenius wanthacrus, Wied. Zool. Mag. ii. 1, 1823, p. 51= 
Chienius hiigel’, Redt. Reis. Novar. ii. Col. 1867, p. 9. 
Chaudoir thought that this species, on account of its 
pubescent palpi, belonged to the Lachnophorini. I accept 
this view provisionally, as the group, which has few repre- 
sentatives in Asia, is not at present well known to me.
