Hab. India, Naga Hills. 



I have for some years possessed a single nnitilated specimen 

 of this extremely fine species, and hoped to have procured a 

 more perfect example. As 1 have not succeeded in doing so, 

 I now describe sans antennas and anterior legs. It cannot 

 be mistaken, and there is no other species of the genus which 

 resembles it either in size or colour. 



Dalpada insularis^ sp. n. 



Ochraccous or reddish ochraceous, coarsely punctured with 

 greenish black. Head with the punctures thickest on the 

 lateral lobes and on the margins of the central lobe ; antennai

 ochraceous. Pronotum with the lateral margins strongly 

 serrate, the lateral angles, which arc moderately prominent 

 and robust, black, with their apices ochraceous. Scutellum
