rounded, a pair of sefra beneath near margin, another pair 

 furtlicr back near middle, paraolossse about two-thirds as lono- 

 as ligida; tooth and lobes of mentum long, narrow, and 

 pointed, tooth setose on outer margin, witli a few irreguLarlj 

 disposed seta? on surface, epilobes visible on lower half of 

 inner side of lobes ; labial palpi with penultimate joint short, 

 strongly dilated within, bisetose on apex of dilated part, last 

 joint cylindrical, rounded at apex, a little longer than pen- 

 ultimate, maxillaries stout, antepenultimate contracted at 

 extremities, obliquely sulcate on underside ; antennte stout, 

 joint 1 = 2-1-3, 2 to 11 approximately equal, clypeus emar- 

 ginate, labrum with equidistant setae, front and hind ones on 

 margin, middle one at a little distance from margin. 



Prothorax transverse, a little wider than head, sides mode- 

 rately rounded in front, sinuate beliind, hind angles right, 

 sides of base oblique but straight, median line well marked on 

 disk, basal fovea3 deep, surface coarsely but not very closely 

 punctate, less coarsely than head. 



Elytra elongate-parallel, punctate-striate, a row of punc- 

 tures on each side of stria?, which become irregular close to 

 apex only, intervals 8 and 9 closely and iircgularly punctate, 

 testaceous spot round, covering intervals 3-7. 



ISuporficially resembling M. trimaculatus, Oliv., but smaller 

 and without the common apical spot, regular puncturation of 

 elytra continued to near apex, prothorax narrower, genre less 

 sharply contracted to neck ; mentum, palpi, and ligula widely 

 different.

The type (China) is in the British Museum. 



Macrochilus tripustulatus^ Dej. 



Length 15'0 mm. 



Chaudoir has pointed out some of the differences between 

 this species and M. trimaculatus, Oliv. Those consist in the 

 larger and wider head, larger (and I may add much more 

 gently sloping) gena% smaller and less projecting eyes, shorter, 

 thicker, and almost raoniliform anteim«, and coarser punctu- 

 ration ; prothorax wider, shorter, more coarsely punctate, 

 hind angles rather more rounded ; elytra hardly differing. 

 Joints of tarsi shorter and wider. Colour of nuiuth-parts, 

 antenna;, labrum, ventral surface, and legs (except fcmor;i) 

 darker.
