250 Mr. J. S. Baly on new Genera and Species of Gallerucidse. 



impresso. Elytra thorace paullo latiora, parallela, crebre punc- 

 tata, leviter elevato-vittata. Pedes elongati, graciles ; coxis anticis 

 contiguis, erectis ; femoribus vix incrassatis, subcompressis ; tibiis 

 omnibus singulatim apice spina acuta armatis ; tarsorum posticorum 

 sequentibus longitudine aequali ; unguiculis appendiculatis. Pro- 

 sternum obsoletum. 



Type, Cynorta porrecta. 



The long, narrow form and produced head will serve to dis- 

 tinguish this well-marked genus at first sight from its allies. 



Cynorta porrecta. 



C. elongata, subfiliformis, viridi-senea, nitida ; capite (vertice ex- 

 cepto), thorace femoribusque fulvis ; thorace granuloso, arcuatim 

 bisulcato, violaceo-seneo suflFuso ; femoribus dorso, tibiis, tarsis 

 antennisque (his basi exceptis) piceis ; elytris granulosis, elevato- 

 vittatis, interspatiis confuse bifariam punctatis, interstitiis inter se 

 reticulatis. 



Long. 3^ lin. 

 Hah. Java. 



Face subporrect, vertex granulose, metallic green, apex of 

 jaws and palpi piceous. Thorax scarcely broader than long; 

 sides slightly diverging from their base to beyond their middle, 

 then slightly converging to the apex ; disk moderately convex, 

 somewhat flattened in the middle, impressed on the centre with 

 two curved fovege, contiguous at the base, diverging towards 

 their apices. 



Genus Nadbana. 



Corpus anguste ovatum, sat convexum. Caput modice exsertum, 

 perpendiculare ; antennis corporis longitudine, gracillimis, fili- 

 formibus, articulo primo curvato, a basi ad apicem leviter incrassato, 

 secundo brevi, tertio secundo fere duplo longiore, quarto tertio 

 dimidio longiore, cseteris articulo quarto singulatim fere sequalibus ; 

 oculis sat magnis, modice prominulis, integris ; palpis maxillaribus 

 apice ovatis, acutis. Thorax brevis, transversus, lateribus mar- 

 ginatis, anguHs anticis obliquis, incrassatis ; disco leviter transversim 

 sulcato. Elytra ovata, convexa, infra basin non transversim im- 

 pressa, confuse punctata. Pedes graciles, sat elongati ; coxis anticis 

 erectis, contiguis ; femoribus posticis non incrassatis ; tibiis omnibus 

 apice spina acuta armatis ; tarsorum posticorum articulo primo 

 elongato, duobus sequentibus conjunctim plus duplo longiore ; un- 

 guiculis appendiculatis. Prosternum fere obsoletum ; metasternum 

 utrinque oblique depressum. 



Type, Nadrana pallidicornis. 



Nadrana is nearly allied to Luperodes ; it is to be distinguished 

 from it by the grooved thorax and more slender antennae, toge- 

 ther with the relatively longer third joint of the latter.
