striato-punctate, rectifasciate elytra, and the stouter basal 

 joint of the anterior tarsi, the tarsi themselves darker. 

 The seriately-arranged punctures on the elytra are very 

 little coarser than those of the interstices. 



10. Macratria linita, n. sp. 



Moderately elongate, narrow, rather depressed, shining, somewhat 

 sparsely clothed with adpressed greyish hairs; piceous or obscure 

 ferruginous, the head, the anterior portion of the prothorax, and an 

 elongate patch extending down the disc of each elytron from a little 

 below the base, more or less rufescent, the palpi, mouth-parts, 

 antennae, and legs (the posterior femora and tibiae in part excepted) 

 testaceous. Head rather broad, well-developed behind the moder- 

 ately large eyes, rounded at the sides posteriorly, and subtruncate 

 at the base, very minutely punctate, the occipital groove short; 

 antennae moderately long, slender, joints 9-11 elongated and 

 thickened, 11 nearly ($) or quite (<$) as long as 9 and 10 united. 

 Prothorax oval, as wide as the head, rather convex, obliquely com- 

 pressed on the flanks posteriorly; densely scabroso-punctate, the 

 basal groove deep. Elytra moderately long, much wider than the 

 prothorax, subparallel; closely, finely punctulate and also with 

 rows of coarser punctures on the disc, the interstices scarcely raised. 

 Pygidium rounded at tip. Legs long; basal joint of anterior tarsi 

 much thickened, that of the posterior pair curved. 



Length 3J mm. 



Hab. Ceylon (Thwaites : type, $) ; ? Java (ex Bowring : <$). 



Two specimens, received in 1867 and 1863 respectively, 

 the " Javan " habitat requiring confirmation. Near M. 

 nankinea, Pic, differing from it in having an elongate 

 rufescent patch on the disc of each elytron, the terminal 

 three joints of the antennae longer, and the vestiture 

 uniform. M. limbata, Pic, from Sumatra, may be an 

 allied form?

Found in numbers by Commander Walker at Haining. 

 A small Anthiciform insect, obscure ferruginous in colour, 

 the elytra nigro-piceous, with a transverse, rufous, post- 

 basal fascia; the posterior femora and tibiae (but not the
