Hah. N. Borneo: Kina Balu {Whitehead). 



A single female specimen was taken witli thf? preceling 

 species, to which it lias the closest resemblance. It is a little 

 smaller, of a similar elongate shape, but with the elytra lesa 

 dilated behind, the hind angles of the prothorax less sharp, 

 and the punctuiation of the pronotum, scutellum, and elytra 

 a little stronger and more evenly distributed. The coloration 

 is exactly similar, but the quite different sculpture of the 

 pygidium and the narrow membranous fringe to the elytra 

 readily distinguish the present species. 



It is nmarkable to find two species so closely related 

 inhabiting the same locality.

Hah. Sarawak : Matang (3600 ft., June 1900). 



This small species, of which there are two males in our 

 collection, is of very peculiar form. It is long and depressed, 

 with the elytra Hattened, the abdomen tapeiing and largely 

 exposed behind the elytra, and the hind legs very long and 

 slender. It is prettily marked, entirely metallic, except the 

 elytra, which are testaceous, with black margins and four
