SCHIZONYCHA FATIDICA, nN. Spec., 
Plate XLIIL., fig. 45. 
This species is very much like S. indotata, the shape and the 
colour are identical, but the clypeus is very plainly sinuate in the 
centre, the clypeal carina, and also the sculpture of the head are 
similar, but not that of the prothorax, which is narrowly scabrose 
along the anterior margin only, the other punctures are cicatricose 
and divided by wavy, smooth, unequal round intervals, imparting to 
the surface a roughly scrobiculate appearance ; in the centre there 
is an elongated, raised, smooth space, and one or two areolets on 
each side of it; the supra-basal folds are very raised, the basal 
angles project very much, and the posterior lateral part is on that 
account more deeply sinuate; the scutellum and elytra are punc- 
tured alike, and so is the pygidium ; the penultimate segment of the 
abdomen is also wider than the preceding, and has a few long hairs ; 
the numerously punctured abdominal segments are squamulose, and 
the metasternum is very densely hairy ; tarsi very long, upper tooth 
of claws shorter and much more slender than the lower. The genital 
armature of the male is on the same plan as that of S. indotata, but 
of somewhat different shape; the basal outer tooth of the anterior 
tibize is very blunt.

SCHIZONYCHA SCABIOSA, N. spec., 
Plate XLIITI,, fig. 44. 
Chestnut-brown, each puncture bearing a minute whitish hair; 
pectus somewhat densely pubescent; club of antenne flavescent ; 
body sub-cylindrical ; head and clypeus closely scabroso-punctate, 
clypeal carina arcuate, suture very fine, basal carina distinct; pro- 
thorax a little ampliated laterally in the middle, very little narrowed 
thence, but slightly sinuated above the basal angle, margins strongly 
serrate in the anterior part, the surface is covered with cicatricose 
punctures asperous in the anterior part, larger and smoother in the 
posterior, where they are divided by narrow, smooth, irregular walls, 
andin the posterior part of the disk there is a smooth, median longi-
