straight and parallel, very slightly dilated before the middle, 

 the anterior angles thickened, subtuberculate, the hinder ones 

 produced, acute ; disk shining, impunctate. Elytra broader 

 than the thorax, oblong-ovate, slightly dilated behind the 

 middle, convex, transversely depressed below the basilar 

 space, closely and coarsely punctured; interspaces rugulose. 



Antipha Nietneri. 



A. ovata, postice ampliata, convexa, nigra, nitida, femoribus, vertice 

 oreque Bordide fulvo-piceis ; antennis pallide piceis, basi sordide 

 fulvis ; thorace lateribus leviter rotundatis, fere parallclis, disco 

 medio lsevi, utrinque sparse punetato ; elytris sat crebre, fortiter 

 punetatis, piceo-fulvis, utrinque limbo angusto maculisque duabus, 

 una vix ante medium, altera apicem versus positis, nigro-piceis.

Hah. Ceylon. Collected by H. Nietner. 



Vertex smooth, impunctate ; encarpse oblique, transverse- 

 quadrate, separated (their extreme apices excepted) by the 

 clypeus ; front impressed immediately above the encarpa3 

 with a deep but ill-defined fovea ; antennas rather more than 

 half the length of the body, the third joint nearly twice as 

 long as the second. Thorax more than twice as broad as 

 long ; sides slightly rounded, nearly parallel, all the angles 

 produced, thickened ; disk smooth and shining, impunctate 

 on the middle portion, impressed on either side with a few 

 scattered punctures. Elytra oblong-ovate, dilated posteriorly, 

 convex, not depressed below the basilar space, strongly and 

 rather closely punctured ; piceo-fulvous, each with the ex- 

 treme outer limb, together with two irregular patches, one 

 just before the middle, the other (larger) rather more than half- 

 way between the middle and the apex, nigro-piceous. 



Antipha pulchella. 



A. late ovata, postice ampliata, valde convexa, lsete fulva, nitida ; 

 oculis scutelloque nigris ; elytris mctallico-creruleis, sat fortiter, 

 crebre punetatis, intra marginem exteriorem leviter costatis.

Hah. Borneo, Sarawak. Collected by Mr. Wallace. 



Head smooth, impunctate ; encarpae transverse, curved, 

 separated by the extreme apex of the clypeus ; from the 

 latter a very short longitudinal groove extends upwards on 

 the front ; antenna? slender, rather more than three fourths 

 the length of the body, the third joint three times the length 

 of the second. Thorax nearly three times as broad as long ; 

 sides straight and nearly parallel from the base to beyond the 

 middle, thence very slightly converging to the apex, the
