Longicornia^ chiefly Asiatic and African. 241 



by an almost obsolete line, the upper lobe being- represented 

 by a short prolongation from the lower lobe, and terminating 

 hehind the antennary tubercles. The anterior coxal cavity is 

 open and the intermediate closed. XysUena has coarsely 

 faceted eyes, and in Lacordaire's system would probably have 

 found a place near. 



Nenenia aurulenta. 



N. oblonga, subdepressa, testacea, pube aureo-sericea omnino ves- 

 tita ; prothorace basin versus tuberculis duabus miinito. Lonff.

Hah. Australia (Melbourne). 



Oblong, subdepressed, testaceous, everywhere clothed with 

 a silky gold-tinted pubescence ; autennge as long as the body, 

 third and fourth joints equal, the fifth rather longer, the re- 

 mainder about equal, but not longer than the third or fourth ; 

 prothorax scarcely broader than long, with two well-marked 

 tubercles near the base ; elytra parallel, each with two finely 

 raised lines ; posterior tarsi sliglitly longer than the inter- 

 mediate. 



Epipedocera leucaspis. 



E. siibdepressa, obscure sanguiuea ; antenuis, pedibus marginibus- 

 que elytrorum atris ; scutello pube argentea dense vestito ; elytris 

 breviusculis, modice punctatis, apice singulorum acute bispiaoso. 

 Long. 2i lin. 



Hob. Sarawak. 



Rather depressed, dull red ; antennaj, legs (tarsi testaceous), 

 and margins of the elytra^ as well as the apical third, opaque 

 black ; scutellum closely covered with a silvery pubescence ; 

 prothorax rounded, closely punctured ; each elytron termina- 

 ting in two rather long acute spines ; abdomen reddish testa- 

 ceous. 



One of Mr. Wallace's captures, but from some oversight 

 omitted in my ' Longicornia Malayana.' 



It differs from E. cruenta in its less transverse prothorax, 

 shorter and more parallel elytra, and other characters. The 

 genus appears to me to be more allied to the " Pyresthides " 

 than to the " Cly tides," the anterior cotyloid cavities being 

 closed in behind, and the antennae being more or less dilated. 



Anexodus. 



Caput inter oculos profuude excavatum ; oculi reniformes, sat grosse 

 granulati. Antennce basi approxiraatse ; scapus magnus, apice
