  The

  armed 
  witli 
  three 
  acute 
  

   teeth, 
  the 
  uppermost 
  placed 
  about 
  the 
  middle, 
  nearer

   second

  to 
  the 
  first,

  separated 
  from 
  it 
  by 
  an 
  

   acute 
  notch. 
  The 
  longer 
  claws 
  of 
  the 
  front 
  and 
  middle 
  feet 
  

   are 
  cleft,

  the 
  shorter 
  claw 
  of 
  the 
  hind 
  foot 
  more 
  than 
  

   half 
  as 
  long 
  as 
  the 
  larger 
  one. 
  Tlie 
  antennae 
  are 
  10-jointed, 
  

   joints 
  3-7 
  progressively 
  diminishing

  In 
  the 
  Ann. 
  & 
  Mag. 
  Nat. 
  Hist, 
  for 
  September 
  1912 
  I 
  

   published 
  descri|)tions 
  of 
  a 
  series 
  of 
  new 
  species 
  of 
  the 
  genus 
  

   Anomala 
  from 
  Burma. 
  The 
  present 
  paper 
  supplements 
  that 
  

   one 
  by 
  a 
  similar 
  series 
  of 
  species 
  belonging 
  to 
  the 
  allied 
  

   genus 
  Adoretus, 
  found 
  mainly 
  in 
  the 
  same 
  localities 
  by 
  the 
  

   same 
  collectors. 
  The 
  types 
  of 
  all 
  are 
  in 
  the 
  British 
  Museum, 
  

   and 
  co-types 
  are 
  in 
  the 
  Genoa 
  Museum, 
  the 
  Berlin 
  Entomo- 
  

   logical 
  Museum, 
  and 
  tlie 
  collection 
  of 
  JMr. 
  H. 
  E. 
  Andrewes. 
  

  

  The 
  following 
  list 
  includes 
  all 
  the 
  species 
  of 
  Aduretus 
  at 
  

   present 
  known 
  to 
  me 
  to 
  inhabit 
  Burma, 
  witii 
  the 
  exception 
  of 
  

   a 
  few 
  of 
  which 
  the 
  specimens 
  yet 
  available 
  are 
  insufficient 
  

   for 
  tlie 
  adequate 
  investigation 
  of 
  their 
  characters. 
  For 
  this 
  

   the 
  male 
  is, 
  in 
  my 
  opinion, 
  absolutely 
  essential. 
  The 
  species 
  

   will 
  be 
  more
