Tetragonoderus Jlmbriatus. 



T. dllatato afRnis, sed differt thoraco latiore, transverso, elytrisque 

 aliter coloratis. Late oblongo-ovatus, nigro-aeneus ; elytris fusco- 

 testaceis, fasciis latis duabus flavo-testaceis nigro-marginatis, mar- 

 ginem attingentibus aiiterioreqiie versus marginem valde dilatata, 

 ibiquc punctis ocellatis uigro-aBneis insignita ; antenuis, palpis 

 pedibusqne flavo-testaceis ; abdomiue versus apicem rufo-testaceo ; 

 elytris interstitio tertio bipunctato. ^ 



Long. 7 millim. 



Kcandy, Math T. cursor. 



Similar in its broad form to T. dilatatus, and having four 

 similarly dilated joints to the intermediate tarsi of the male ; 

 but the thorax is of broader form and more dilated anteriorly. 

 The head also is not narrowly ovate as in T. dilatatus, the 

 eyes especially being more prominent. The anterior elytral 

 fascia is similar in width up to the sixth interstice ; but on 

 the seventh and eighth, as also on the margin, it greatly 

 expands, being there one third the length of the elytra. The 

 posterior fascia is nearly of the same proportions as in T. 

 dilatatus. 



Subfamily Coptoderixjs.

J'antillus vittatus. 



Oblongus, nigro-piceus, nitidus ; elytris fulvo-testaceis, vitta lata coni- 

 niuni suturali (apicem baud attingente) nigro-picea, margine 

 laterali medio infuscato; an tennis, palpis pedibusque flavo-testaceis.

Bogawantalawa. 



Differs from 2\ hrunneus (the only other known species) in 

 the colour of the elytra, Avhich in T. hrunneus are uniform 

 blackish brown or piceous. The elytra are truncated in a 

 similar way, and have the two large setiferous punctures on 

 the third interstice in the same position, viz. the first towards 

 the base and the second very near the apex.
