IleJonotus malayanus, sp. n. 



Ochraceous; head, antennae, rostrum, and anterior pronotal 

 lobe reddish ochraceous ; legs black, apices of femora and. 

 the whole of the tibiffi and tarsi ochraceous; membrane very 

 pale ochraceous, about reaching the apex of the abdomen ; 

 connexivum black, its lateral margin luteous ; first joint of 

 antennffi about as long as head and pronotum togetlier; 

 anterior lobe of pronotum with two long discal spines, poste- 

 rior lobe with two shorter discal spines ; lateral angles 

 conically spinouslj produced. 



A somewhat variable species, the abdomen sometimes 

 darkl}' tomentose and the posterior margin of the apical 

 segment somewhat broadly black. 



Long. 18-19 millim. ; exp. pronot. angl. 4^ millim. 



Hah. Sumatra: Macassar, Waigiou ( ir'aZ/ace?, Brit. Mus.). 



Ilelonotus coufusus, sp. n. 



Closely allied to the preceding species (H. malayanus) , but 

 differing in the following respects : — The first joint of the 

 antennffi is longer and is about as long as head, pronotum, 

 and scutellum together ; head in front of eyes black ; legs 

 castaneous, the apices of the femora black ; connexivum 

 ochraceous, spotted with black. 



Long. 18 milHm. ; exp. pronot. angl. 4^ millim. 



Hah. Malayan Archipelago : Batchian ( Wallace^ Brit. 

 Mus.). 



Ceeellius, gen. nov. 



Body elongate ; head as long as pronotum, anteocular 

 about as long as postocular portion, the last somewhat attenu- 

 ated towards base, widest and most robust between antennse 

 and eyes, strongly transversely constricted between eyes; 

 antenna long, first and second joints almost subequal in 

 length ; rostrum with the first joint little more than half 

 the length of second; pronotum strongly transversely con- 

 stricted, the anterior lobe subglobose, centrally finely sulcate, 

 posterior lobe broadly sulcate anteriorly, its lateral angles 

 subprominent and rounded, its base inwardly sinuate ; scutel- 

 lum subconically tuberculous near base and at apex, between 

 which it is much deflected ; membrane about reaching abdo- 

 minal apex; abdomen upwardly dilated at each lateral 

 margin ; legs long, anterior femora not prominently incras- 

 sate, femora and tibiaj about equal in length, intermediate 

 tibiae very sliglitly curved.
