410 Mr. W. F. Klrby— A'o^es on Blattldfe. 



below ; bead smooth, very finely punctured, lower part of 

 cljpeus finely transversely striated ; front femora with four 

 spines ; pronotum broadly and almost squarely concave in 

 front, with the sides risino; into short horns, narrowed and 

 recurved at the summit ; front depression of the pronotum 

 dull, finely granulated, slightly carinated in the middle, and 

 with a slight ridge on each side ; the rest of the upper sur- 

 face smooth and shining, sides of pronotum sparingly and 

 finely punctured; abdomen very slightly punctured, except 

 increasingly on the last two segments and on the terminal 

 plate, though even there much less coarsely and thickly 

 than usual ; raised part of pronotum with two strong tubercles 

 in front, nearly as wide apart as the horns, terminal segment 

 with about six irregular teeth in the middle, most of which 

 are short, broad, and obtuse. 



Hah. AnimalH Hills, S. India. 



A narrower and much less strongly punctured species than 

 the others of the genus. 



Dicellonotus tnsularis. 



Long. corp. 41-42 millim ; lat 22-24 millim. 



Black, a line within each antenna, the labram and labium 

 (but not the mentum, which is black), and the pulvilli testa- 

 ceous ; spines on legs, claws, and some shades on the under 

 surface of the abdomen ferruginous ; front of pronotum 

 curved up into a stout moi'erately long rounded horn on 

 each side, separated by a rounded space : frontal depression 

 thickly punctured, with two parallel carinai running to the 

 raised part of the pronotum, which is strongly bituberculate 

 in the middle in front, and with two shallow channels on 

 each side in front ; it is nearly smooth, but is very slightly 

 punctured, as are also the other divisions of the upper surface, 

 till towards the hinder segments of the abdomen, where 

 large rounded punctures become increasingly numerous to 

 the extremity, especially on segments 6 and 7, and on the 

 terminal plate, which is rather strongly, but broadly, dentated 

 at the extremity. Tegmina lateral, extending as far as the 

 base of the metanotum, narrowed and slightly upcurved at 

 the extremity. Front femora with two spines. 



Ilab. Bara, W. Bouru. 



Described from two specimens. The female is narrower, 

 and the horns are less strongly developed than in the male. 

 1 place this species provisionally in Dicellonotus, but it 

 diriers from the types in possessing short tegmina.
