204 Mr. F. P. Pascoe on new Species of Lamiidse. 



Ach tliophora fasciata . 



A. fusca, pube falva sparse vestita ; elytris fascia determinata postica 

 alba ; antennis baud ciliatis, art. quarto incrassato. 



Hah. Labuan. 



Dark brown, with a sparse fulvous pubescence between the 

 punctures on the elytra, but with small naked spots, each 

 having a fine puncture in the centre, on the prothorax ; head 

 with an uninterrupted pubescence ; lip and palpi testaceous ; 

 prothorax short, transverse, not tuberculate at the sides, punc- 

 tures irregularly dispersed ; scutellum semicircular, concave ; 

 elytra entire at the shoulders, punctures rather large, irregular, 

 crowded at the base, here and there separated by a granular 

 elevation, between the middle and apex a broad distinct white 

 band ; body beneath brownish testaceous, with a yellowish 

 pubescence speckled with small naked spots ; antennas not 

 longer than the body, not bearded, the third joint very thick 

 until near the apex, dark brown, the succeeding joints testa- 

 ceous, clouded outwardly with brownish. Length 5 lines. 



This can only be considered a doubtfully aberrant form of 

 Aclithophora : the absence of the protuberance at the shoul- 

 ders and the thickness of the third and fourth joints of the 

 antennte will probably lead to a genus being formed for its 

 reception. 



Agelasta mystica. 



A. atra, Kneis fasciisque niveis bene limitatis decorata. 



Hah. Manilla. 



Deep black, covered with a very short yellowish-brown 

 pubescence, marked with slender, perfectly limited, snowy- 

 white bands and stripes, and entirely impunctate ; head with 

 three stripes, the intermediate one divided in front by a nar- 

 rowly elevated line, an irregular spot behind the eye ; pro- 

 thorax with nine stripes, but two or three on each side little 

 more than spots, the basal margin edged with a narrow band; 

 scutellum transversely triangular ; elytra rather short, one 

 band near the base, but behind the scutellum, and a second 

 behind the middle, between tlie two on eacli elytron four or 

 five spots or sliort bars, near each apex a spotted transverse 

 line, and behind it two longitudinal bars ; body beneath black, 

 very sparingly pubescent, edges of all the abdominal segments 

 and of the metasterimm edged with white ; legs black, femora 

 on their upper edges lined with white, fore tibiae curved ; 

 antennas with the bases of the third to the sixth joints, in- 

 ckisive, white at the base. Length 6^ lines.
