Anisolahis (?) Kirhyi, sp. n. 



Fnsca, uitida, frlahrn ; capite pronoto paulo latiori ; elytrorum 

 a)aruni(|ue rudinientis nuUis ; abdominc postico dilatato, tuber- 

 ciilis lateralibus nullis instructo, sopinoiito ultimo mapno, rotiin- 

 dato ; p«'dibus fusco-tostaccis ; py^idio baud conspicuo ; t'urcipis 

 brachiis teretibus, basi distantibus, validis, triquetris, a latere 

 visis leviter sinuatis, iuermibus, brachio doxtro magis incurvo 

 quam altero. cT . 



Long, corp 1 1 "5 mm. 



„ fore 2-75 „ 



/y^ac? rounded, frons fuscous, posterior part reddish ; nioutli- 

 parts testaceous; antenna? wanting. Fronotum slightly 

 narrower than the head ; square, slightly longer than broad, 

 reddish fuscous. Mesonotum darker, about twice as broad as 

 long. Metanotiim short, considerably broader than long, 

 posterior margin sinuate, with the angles produced sharply 

 posteriorly. Pro-, meso-, and metastcmum testaceous. Feet 

 dark testaceous ; tarsi clothed wifli a few short stiflf hairs. 

 Abdomen dilated posteriorly, each segment being broader 

 than the segment anterior to it. Ultimate segment large, 

 round, posterior margin straight; there is a slight semicircular 

 depression within the lateral margins, the margins slightly 

 raised and crenulate. Forceps with the branches stout and 

 distant at the base, the left branch gradually incurved, the 

 right branch straight, then suddenly curved in at a right angle, 

 shorter than the left, the apex being incurved within the apex 

 of the left branch ; as seen from the side the branches are 

 slightly curved upwards. ^ . 



Putria. Pengalengan, Western Java, 4000' (//. Frilh- 

 storfer). Type in coll. m. 



Allied to A.javana, Borm., from which it may be distin- 

 guished by the abdomen being more dilated posteriorly, and by 

 the shape of the forceps : mjavana both branches are equally 

 incurved, the apices meeting ; in Kirhyi the right branch is 

 curved within the left, as in Anisolahis maritima, Bon. 



For those Anisoluhes with the appearance of Chelidura, 

 i. e.jjavana, Borm., lativentris, Phil., and this species, with 

 the abdomen dilated, a new genus is required, but I refrain 

 from creating it now, as M. de Bormans informs me that they 

 will form his new genus (inedit.). 



I have great pleasure in dedicating this curious species to 

 my friend Mr. W. F. Kirby, F.L.S., of the British Museum. 



Labia dolicha, sp. n. 

 Inter maximas generis : nitida, fusca, pallido variegata, glabra ;
