ANOMALA. 205 



204. Anomala semiaurea, sp. nov. 



Deep golden-green, with the clypeus, the sides of the pronotum 

 (sometimes also the front and hind margins narrowly), the elytra 

 and the legs pale greenish- or pinkish-golden. 



It is elongate-oval, rather broad behind and moderately convex. 

 The head is very strongly and densely punctured, rugosely upon 

 the clypeus, which is broadly rounded. The pronotum is finely 

 and closely punctured, with a longitudinal median furrow, the 

 sides are strongly rounded, the front angles acute, the hind angles 

 obtuse and the base not margined. The scutellum is similarly 

 punctured. The elytra are deeply sulcate, the intervals strongly 

 convex and the sulci finely and closely punctulated. The pygidium 

 is coarsely transversely striolated. The sides of the body beneath 

 are rather thinly clothed with grey hair, the front tibia is bideu- 

 tate, the hind tibia rather slender, and the longer claw is cleft on 

 the front and middle feet. 



d . The teeth of the front tibia are acute, the pygidium is very 

 convex and furnished with a few hairs on its posterior part. 



5 . The teeth of the front tibia are very blunt, and the whole 

 pygidium is thinly clothed with long hairs. 



Length, 14 mm.; breadth, 8-5 mm. 



BUEMA : Haka, Chin Hills (F. E. Yenning). 



Type in the British Museum. 



This species is very close to the Chinese A. imperialis, Arrow, 

 but the head is rather larger, the pygidium less closely sculptured 

 and more shining, and the coloration different. 



205. Anomala connectens, sp. nov. 



Yellow, with a golden-green lustre, the elytra brick-red and 

 non-metallic, and the pygidium and end of the abdomen, the hind 

 tibiae, all the tarsi, a spot on each side of the vertex and an 

 irregular elongate patch on each side of the pronotum dark 

 brown. 



It is elongate-oval in shape, tapering in front and behind, 

 closely punctured and not very shining, with rather slender legs. 

 The head is rugosely punctured, with the clypeus rather rect- 

 angular, but gently rounded in front. The vertex, pronotum and 

 scutellum are finely and closely punctured, the sides of the pro- 

 notum rounded, the front angles right angles, the hind angles 

 obtuse, and the base not margined. The elytra are deeply and 

 closely sulcate, with the intervals convex and minutely punctured, 

 and the apical margins not separately rounded. The pygidium is 

 finely transversely strigose. The front tibia bears a long terminal 

 tooth and a short upper one, the hind tibia is moderately long,, 

 and the longer claw is cleft on the front and middle feet. 



cJ . The inner front claw is broadly dilated. 



Length, 11 mm. ; breadth, 5-5 ruin.
