Eesemliling a small specimen of 0. mediofasciatiis, Wwil., 

 but easily distinguished by the characters given above. 

 Hab. Menado,^ (AVallace). 



Ominlins posfi'-rdis, n. sp. 



Brevier, niger, prothorace transversini sul)tiliter rugoso, elytiis 

 piceis ciuereo pubescentibus, basi seriatim punctatis, striis fere 

 integris, fascia lata pone medium nigra, pedibus nigris, tibiarum 

 atque femorum basi, tarsisque testaceis, pectore et abdomine 

 rulis. Long. lin. 4-^. 



A little like O. femonilix, but the fascia is placed further be- 

 hind, the antennae are much shorter, the two basal joints pale, 

 but the short club entirely black, the thorax transversly wrinkled 

 especially in front, and shorter than in femoralis, legs nearly 

 black, only the base of thighs and tibiae and underside of anterior 

 thighs pale, breast red, &c.

Omjiilins ciiUndricus, n. sp. 



Elongatus parallelus, nigro-fuscus, capite testaceo, prothorace 

 medio carinato, elytris nigro-violaceis, basi, fasciis duabus 

 obliquis, unaque in medio curvata, cum sutura, flavo micantibus 

 sericeis, apice sub-truncato, fulvo : pedibus fuscis, femoribus 

 posticis supra, anticis infra, tarsisque testaceis. Long. lin. 5-6 -^y. 



Feminn 1 Abdomine segmento quinto ventrali in \'alvulis 

 duobus lateralibus producto, dorsali his obtegente ; (piarto 

 emarginato. 



Very cylindric, head with the eyes about the width of the 

 elytra, thorax finely carinate in the middle of the disc, and 

 someAvhat transversely wrinkled in front, Avith an oblique sulcus on 

 each side of the base. Elytra parallel, their apex sinuate truncate, 

 sutural angle a little acuminate and produced, punctate- striate at 

 the base, striae produced, but obsolete near apex. The first 

 oblique fascia of shining hairs starts from the humerus towards 

 the suture, near Avhich it sometimes meets the median curved 

 band ; the third fascia is only conspicuous in one of the tAvo 

 examples before me, it runs from the margin near the apex 

 toAvards the middle fascia, but does not nearly reach it. The 

 antenuie have the fifth to tenth joints acuminate internally, the 

 last long, pointed at apex, they are fuscous excepting the basal 

 joint Avhich is pale yelloAV beneath. The organisation of the 

 fifth ventral plate is very extraordinary in the female, unlike any
