Chilocorus mikado, sp. n. 



Hemisphsericus, nitidus, subtus brunneo-rufus ; thorace elybrisque 



nigris ; pedibus corpore concoloribus. 

 L. 4| miU. 



Hemispherical, shining ; the head, body beneath, and legs 

 brownish red ; the thorax and elytra black, the latter not 

 thickly punctulate on the disk, but distinctly and rather 

 rugosely punctured laterally. Crotch considered this species 

 belonged to C. nigritus, Fabr., and recorded it as such 

 (Revis. p. 184) ; but it does not agree with any Indian 

 specimen I have seen in the punctuation of the elytra, and it 

 also differs in having the scutellum more than as large again. 

 The anterior tibiae are angulate on the outer edge near the 

 base.

I did not meet with this species, but Herr R. Hiller lias 

 kindly given me an example.

This species has two dorsal rows of punctures, and it is the 

 type of the genus Sticholotis.
