i^ew Japanese Coleoptera. 341 



Lagria notabilis^ sp. n. 



Nigra, nitida, nigro-hirta ; capite thoraceque grossc punctatis ; 



elytris dense punctatis et transversitn rugosis, apice augulo sutu- 



rali valde mucionatis. 

 L. lU mill. 



Black, siiining, clothed with long black hairs not closely 

 set ; the head nnd thorax relatively narrow, elytra at the 

 bases as wide again as the thorax, widest behind the middle ; 

 the head rather coarsely and rugosely punctate, with a trans- 

 verse impression between the antennae ; the thorax sculptured 

 like the head, with a longitudinal impression, free of large 

 punctures, on the disk; the scutellum somewhat roughly 

 punctulate, obtuse behind ; the elytra more densely and more 

 coarsely sculptured than the thorax, with the interstices of 

 the punctures more raised and generally distinctly transverse; 

 on the apex of each elytron there is a large triangular process, 

 the base of the triangle being parallel to the suture, so that 

 when the wing-cases are closed only one of the processes is 

 visible; the antennae and legs are black, joints 7 to 11 of the 

 first are opaque. 



Hah. Oshima [Ferrie) . 



Macrolagria rugipennis^ sp. n. 



Elongata, subparallela, nigra, nitida ; elytris grosse et rugose 



punctatis, nigris vel rufo-brunneis. 

 L. 11-12 mill. 



Elongate, rather parallel at the sides, black, shining ; the 

 elytra black or wholly reddish brown ; the head smooth, with 

 a very few scattered punctures and an oblong impression 

 between the eyes (not always well defined) ; the thorax, punc- 

 tures larger and much more numerous than those of the head 

 and somewhat irregularly set, posterior rim distinctly elevated ; 

 the elytra with coarse punctures arranged roughly in double 

 rows, with costai running between them ; the costse are 

 encroached upon by the punctures, apices somewhat acute ; 

 the legs and antenna; black. 



This species is about the size of and similar to M. rufo- 

 brunneay Mars., but the eyes are nearer together in both 

 sexes and the rough and coarse sculpture of the elytra is 

 very different. 



Hah. Oshima {^Ferrie). Apparently common. 



Balaninus Hilgendorji^ Har. 1878, = 5. dentipes^
