32 G Mr. W. L. Distant's Rhynchotal Notes. 



In a complete example now before me this attains an altitude 

 of S mm., and its apex is strong and longly bilobed, these 

 lobes being subtriangular in shape, with their inner angles 

 rounded and their outer angles acute, between their bases 

 the process is widened and centrally a little anteriorly pro- 

 duced. The posterior pronotal process is also less lobately 

 elevated than in Buckton's figure. 



Schmidt's P. breddini appears to refer to Buckton's species, 

 but I have not seen his type. 



Pyrgauchenia kinabalense. 



Pyrgophyllium? kinabalense, Bredd. Soc. Eut. xvii. p. 91 (1902). 



Black ; femora (excluding bases), margins of tibiae and 

 bases of tarsi ochraceous ; pronotal carinse and base of poste- 

 rior pronotal process pale ochraceous ; tegmina with a distinct 

 white spot at posterior angle of inner margin of tegmina ; 

 anterior pronotal process erect, a little directed foiwardly, 

 moderately compressed, the apex inwardly subacutely pro- 

 duced, the central carina? ochraceous and very finely serrate, 

 posterior process compressed, gibbously convex, the apex 

 reaching the posterior angle of inner tegminal margin. 



A species near the Sumatran H. jugulata, Buckt. ; but, 

 although a large series of specimens are now before me, I 

 am in doubt as to whether I have an example showing the 

 true apex of the anterior pronotal process. From H. jugulata 

 it may at once be separated by the very much more elevated 

 posterior pronotal process, the shorter anterior pronotal process, 

 and its much smaller size. 



Long. 6 j mm. 



Hah. Borneo ; Mt. Kina Balu (J. C. Moulton). Sumatra ; 

 Swlak Daras, Korinchi Valley. 



Var. a. — Tegmina distinctly mottled with ochraceous. 



Var. b. — Tegmina brownish-ochraceous, the pale ochraceous 

 markings to pronotum less distinct. 



Var. c. — Dull ochraceous, tegmina finely mottled with 

 brownish. 



Pyrgauchenia colorata, sp. n. 



Black ; anterior carinse and central longitudinal ridge to 

 the pronotum, costal margin and claval area to the tegmina, 

 and the legs more or less brownish-ochraceous, a white trans- 

 verse fascia (divided by the dark veins) on posterior area of 

 the tegmina ; anterior pronotal process elevated and recurved 

 (its apex mutilated in the three specimens now before me), 

 posterior process near middle, very strongly and subangularly
