54 CHRYSOMELID^E. 



black ; antennae robust, fulvous (the last two joints in the type 

 and only specimen available broken off), fourth and fifth joints 

 elongate. Thorax subquadrate, the sides deeply constricted in 

 the middle ; basal sulcus very deep ; the disc \\ ith a few minute 

 punctures in the middle and anteriorly. Scutellum fulvous. 

 Elytra very feebly depressed below the base, deeply punctate- 

 striate; the punctures round and large, closely placed near the 

 suture, more distantly so at the sides ; a large subquadrate blue 

 spot occupies the shoulders and extends to the lateral but not to 

 the sutural margins. Underside and legs fulvous, clothed with 

 golden pubescence. 



Length 5-6 mm. 



Hob. Bengal : Mandar. 



Also allied to L. histrio, Clark, but the elytra differently marked 

 and the spots blue not black, the puncturation more closely placed 

 and the underside clothed with yellow pubescence. 



102. Lema burmaensis, sp. n. 



Clypeus, antennae, legs and the underside black ; above fulvous ; 

 elytra with a small black spot before and another behind the 

 middle. 



Head strongly raised between the eyes, the elevation with a 

 central rather deep groove posteriorly extended as far as the middle, 

 finely pubescent, area behind the eyes not constricted ; eyes rather 

 deeply emarginate, the space within sparingly pubescent ; antennae 

 and clypeus black, third joint of the antennae rather smaller than 

 the fourth, the following joints elongate. Thorax not longer than 

 broad, moderately constricted, the anterior angles with a very 

 small tubercle, the disc impunctate, basal sulcus very deep, placed 

 rather close to the posterior margin. Elytra with a short but 

 rather deep depression below the base, the punctures moderately 

 strong at the latter place, much finer posteriorly ; a black spot 

 placed within the depression and another one behind the middle, 

 slightly more outwards than the first spot. Body beneath and 

 legs black, clothed with fine grey pubescence. 



Length 5 mm. 



Hab. Burma : Tharrawaddy. Type in Coll. H. E. Andrewes. 



Of this distinctly marked species I have seen only a single 

 specimen ; the black antennae, legs, and underside separate it at 

 once from L. histrio.

Fulvous ; antennas (the base excepted) and an elytral spot behind 

 the middle black.
