Pyrochroa apicipenms, sp. n. 



$ . Fere ut prsecedenti scd gracilior ; elytris fulvis, apice nigris. 

 Long. 13 mm. 



Hah. Borneo. 



Closely resembles the last species, but head and thorax 

 relatively smaller, and the head narrows more suddenly 

 behind the eyes. The apex of the elytra for about one-sixth 

 of' their length is black. 



Pyrochroa ruficolUs, sp. n. 



2 . Elongata, parum depressa, nigra ; prothorace scutelloque rufis. 

 Long. 13-15 mm. 



Hah. Java. 



This species, represented by two female examples, resembles 

 P. dohertyij Pic, from which it differs in having the elytra 

 entirely black "and the underside and limbs pitchy and clothed 

 with black hairs. The head is narrowed behind the eyes, 

 black tinged with red on the neck. The antennai are stout, 

 with a black pubescence, the first joint about equal in length 

 to the third, and from the fourth onwards stoutly pectinate. 

 The prothorax is slightly transverse, rounded at the sides, 

 with a shallow median furrow and lateral impressions. The 

 elytra are narrow, subparallel, and with only faint traces of 

 costje.

liesembles P. hipartita, Pic, from Sumatra, but the black 

 apical portion of the elytra is not sharply marked off from 

 the red — in fact, the junction is very gradual, with a cloudy 

 appearance. Furthermore, the most advanced portion of the 

 black is in the middle and the suture is tinged with red 

 almost to the tip. Apparently closely allied to the foregoing ; 

 the head of the male is transversely excavated between the 

 eyeSj the antennge are moderately stout, serrate above, and 

 finely pectinate beneath.
