332 Mr. 0. J. Gahan on some Loivjiconi 



somewhat longer on the last few joints. Protliorax unaruisil 

 at the sides, longitutlinallj rugose above, with the median 

 ridge distinct and the others more or less broken, so that the 

 disk presents towards the sides a somewhat roughly granu- 

 late ajipoarance. Elytra narrowed behind and sinuately 

 truncate in a transverse direction at the apex, the outer angles 

 not being produced as in some of the allied species ; each with 

 a rather prominent ridge placed not far from the suture along 

 the basal fourth and a second very much smaller ridge in the 

 depression between this and the humeral prominence. Pubes- 

 cence covering the middle of the abdomen and sometimes 

 that on the breast of an ashy-Avhite colour, the rest of the 

 })ubescence on the underside and legs being of the same colour 

 as on tiie upperside. 



One male specimen of this species was obtained at Hainan. 

 Two female specimens from N. India, in the British Museum 

 collection, undoubtedly belong to the same species, the only 

 differences noticeal)le being of a sexual character. In the 

 male, each of the middle tibiaj is armed on the inner side just 

 before the apex with a large blunt tootii, which stands out 

 almost at right angles. This character is present also in two 

 other male specimens in the Museum collection — one from the 

 Andaman Islands, the other being labelled as from China ; 

 and as these specimens only differ in being whiter underneath 

 and along the margins and on the disk of the elytra, they may 

 safely be referred to the same species. 



18. Pterolophia annulataj Chevr. 

 One example. 



19. Zotale lineatus, Gahan. 

 Mycerinopsislineatuit, Gahan, Ann. Mu3. Civ, Genov. (2) xiv. p. 75. 



One example, agreeing very well with typical specimens 

 from Burma. 



Since I described this species I have been able to examine 

 the type of the genus Zotale, Pasc. Z. lineatus is very 

 closely allied to Z. unxcolovy Pasc, and is certainly congeneric 

 with it. 



20. Syhra posiicata, Gahan. 

 Sybra potticata, Gahan, /. c. p. 77. 



One example. The species occurs also in Burma, Siam, 

 and N. India.
