There are four specimens in the British Museum from St. 
Paul’s Island in the Indian Ocean and one from Hakodate. 
One of the specimens is labelled ‘ 7’rox Eversmannt, Kry. 
(rugulosus, Fald.);” but the thorax of T.Hversmannzis described 
as being subcordate and deeply punctate, and this does not 
apply to the Japanese species; Faldermann’s name has not 
been published. 
te Hakodate. Taken from a dead animal on the sand- 
ills. 
Anthypna pectinata, sp. n. 
3. Oblonga, «nea vel viridi-anea, nitida, griseo-hirta ; capite 
carinato; thorace granulato-punctato; elytris dense transverso- 
strigosis. Femina latet. 
L. 9 mill. 
Oblong, brassy or greenish brassy, shining, and clothed 
with long | grey hair ; the head, surface microscopically strigose, 
punctured, punctures not densely set and appearing sometimes 
as oranules or little bosses owing to their rims being raised, 
each bears a hair, carinate before the eyes, the carina some- 
times joins anteriorly, and in such specimens the carina can 
be traced in a bowed line behind the eyes; the thorax feebly 
sinuous on either side on the basal edge, hind angle obtuse 
with a concavity within it which reaches halfway along the 
thoracic edge ; the scutellum rather densely sculptured; the 
elytra wholly strigose-rugose ; the antenne and legs greenish 
or coppery, claws and tibial spines reddish brown. 
This genus, so far as I am aware, has hitherto only been 
represented by two Italian species and two Asiatic species 
described by Semenow in 1891.

Ectinohoplia var iolosa, Waterh. J. c. p. 99, pl. iii. fig. 2. 
This species is very variable, Waterhouse’s figure represents 
the commonest form, but specimens entirely” velvety black 
above are very common, aud intermediate varieties are often 
found. The remarkable claws in this species are noticed by 
Motschulsky. 
Hab. Nagasaki, Hitoyoshi, Nikko. It is one of the most 
abundant species in Japan.
