" Antennoe valde compressse, serratae, iiigrae. Thorax rufeseens, 

 marginibus subreflexis. Elytra sulcata, sulcis rugosis, nifescentia, 

 apice nigra. Abdomen et pedes nigra. Femora basi testacea."

 Hah. " Nova Hollandia." 



The colour of the thorax and elytra of the type is now nearly 

 testaceous. The thorax is strongly punctured in front, and has a 

 strong discoidal impression. The elytra have seven costa^ the alter- 

 nate ones being rather indistinct and irregular ; that next the suture 

 is divided into three near the scutellum. The apex of the elytra 

 and the abdomen are now wanting in the type specimen, which is 

 the only one I have seen.

Trichalus cyaneiventris. 

 (Plate XVII. fig. 6.) 



Cyaneo-niger, subtus nitidus ; antennis atris ; thorace flavo, 

 antice angustato, lateribus reflexis, angulis posticis acutis ; scutello 

 flavo ; elytris flavis, opacis ; prosterno mesosternoque flavis. c? ? $ •

Hah. Philippine Islands {Cuming). 



Thorax dull yellow, much narrowed anteriorly, the posterior 

 angles diverging and acute, mesial arcolet extending from the base 

 to the anterior margin. Elytra subparallel in the male, consider- 

 ably expanded at the apex in the female ; the first strong costa is 

 joined by its two finer companions nearly at the middle of the 

 elytra ; the punctures in the lines are well defined, rather close, 

 and strongly transverse. 



ENYLUS. 



Antennse compressed, linear. Thorax with a mesial lanceolate 

 areolet. Elytra parallel, each with eight costse ; the fourth and 

 eighth distinct, and extending to the apex ; the second and sixth 

 only distinct at the base, indistinct posteriorly ; the others very 

 narrow and indistinct, the interstices each with a single line of 

 punctures. 



This genus is proposed for a single species which closely resembles 

 some species of Trichalus, especially T. (jriseus, but has parallel 

 costae to the elytra. 



Enylus segregatus. 

 (Plate XVII. fig. 10.) 



Testaceus ; antennis fuscescentibus ; capite, elytris abdomincque 

 fuscis ; elytris singiilis costis quatuor. iuterstitiis crebre punc- 

 tatis. S • Long. 2^ lin.
