This species is evidently, by the character of the protuberant 

 eyes and the markings of the seutellum, allied to C. ophthalmicum, 

 Montand., but it is a much larger species and the ochraceous 

 markings on the pronotum are different. 



COPTOSOMA CABINATUH, Kuhlg. Arch. Naturg. 1901, pp. 225 & 245. 



This species, of which the type is in the Berlin Museum, is 

 described as beingallied toC.circumscriptum, Germ., and C.distigma, 

 Montand. The type is a $ specimen, and the locality given is 

 -' India oriental!*, Klug." 



It is well known, however, that Klug gave this habitat for some 

 species that cannot be included in the fauna here enumerated. 



The following species have been described by Breddin from 

 Ceylon, but I have not been able to identify them with any of the 

 species received from that island :
