205. Gynandrophthalma minuta, sp. n. 



Flavous ; breast and abdomen black. 



Head with a small f ovea between the eyes ; clypeus not separated 

 from the face ; antennae extending to the base of the thorax, basal 

 three joints flavous, rest slightly darkened, fourth and following 

 joints strongly serrate. Thorax two and a half times broader 

 than long, sides rounded, posterior angles obtuse, surface im- 

 punctate. Elytra parallel-sided and subcylindrical, finely punctate- 

 striate ; legs flavous. 



Length 2k mm. 



Hob. India : Belgaum (Coll. H. E. Andrewes). 



One of the smallest species of the genus known to me and easily 

 recognized on that account and by the finely punctate-striate 

 elytra ; the elytra are not lobed at the sides and cover the pygidium. 

 A single specimen is contained in Mr. Andrewes's collection. 



206. Gynandrophthalma citrinella, sp. n. 



Elongate, parallel-sided ; bright flavous. Elytra finely punctate- 

 striate. 



Head very finely and closely punctured on the lower portion, 

 the middle with a fovea ; eyes very large, black ; antennae : the 

 second joint thick, moniliform, third very short, fourth slightly, 

 fifth and following three joints strongly transverse, the rest wanting 

 in the type-specimen. Thorax two and a half times as broad as 

 long, of equal width, lateral margins feebly rounded near base, 

 posterior angles distinct, surface minutely and irregularly punc- 

 tured with the interstices still more finely punctate. Scutellum 

 broad, triangular, impunctate. Elytra without traces of lateral 

 lobes, very elongate and parallel with about twelve rows of fine 

 punctures, rather irregularly placed, these rows continue to the 

 apex, interstices with some minute punctures here and there. Legs 

 and tarsi very short. 



Length 6 mm. 



Hob. Northern India (Brit. Mus.'). 



A narrow and elongate species of bright flavous coloration and 

 distinguished by the finely punctate-striate elytra. A single 

 (apparently female) specimen is before me in which the last 

 abdominal segment has a small but deep fovea.
