35. Macratria atricolor, n. sp. 



Elongate, narrow, shining, sparsely clothed with adpressed brown 

 and cinereous hairs; black, the mouth-parts, the antennae in part 

 (joints 9-11 excepted), and tarsi (joints 1 and 2 of the posterior pair 

 excepted) testaceous, the palpi more or less infuscate, the knees 

 reddish. Head as long as broad, convex, much developed behind 

 the rather small eyes, rounded posteriorly, sparsely, minutely punc- 

 tate, the occipital groove short, deep ; antennae long, slender, joints 

 9-11 elongated and thickened, 11 much longer than 10, slightly 

 shorter in $ than in <£. Pro thorax about as wide as the head, con- 

 vex, oblong-oval, obliquely compressed on the flanks posteriorly, 

 roughly granulato-punctate, the basal groove deep. Elytra long, 

 much wider than the i^rothorax, very gradually narrowed from the 

 base, subparallel in $; somewhat coarsely, confusedly punctate, 

 without definite impressed lines on the disc (the sutural and sub- 

 marginal striae excepted), the interspaces smooth and shining. 

 Legs long, the femora strongly clavate ; basal joint of anterior tarsi 

 moderately thickened. 



Length 4-5 mm. (c?$.) 



Hob. Burma, Ruby Mines (Doherty). 



Six specimens. This is one of three closely allied forms 

 found by Doherty in the same district. Compared with 

 M. longipennis, it is smaller and less elongate, the elytra 

 are more closely and a little more coarsely punctate, the 

 antennae are much more slender, and the femora and 

 tibiae are infuscate or black. Less robust, smaller, and 

 narrower than M. nigerrima, the elytra not so densely 

 punctate (with smooth, flattened interspaces between the 

 punctures), the antennae more slender, the head smoother, 

 the tarsi in great part testaceous. 



36. Macratria pumilio, n. sp. 



Moderately elongate, somewhat flattened above, subacuminate 

 posteriorly, feebly shining (when denuded); thickly clothed with 

 very fine, adpressed, brownish and cinereous pubescence, the entire 

 upper surface very densely punctulate; nigro-piceous, the palpi, 

 mouth-parts, antennae (the infuscate terminal three joints excepted), 

 and tarsi (joint 1 of the posterior pair excepted) testaceous or obscure 

 testaceous. Head short, broad, rounded at the base, without 

 occipital groove above; eyes large, distant, depressed; antennae 

 short, slender, joints 9-11 thickened, 9 about as long as broad, 10 

 transverse, 11 ovate. Prothorax oval, about as long as broad, as
