Seeing that both species feed in exactly the same way, and 

 that E. huoliana, as both Mr. Fletcher and I have learned to 

 our disappointment, is certainly no less fond than its close ally 

 of the leading shoots of the Scots pine, and is infinitely more 

 numerous than it in each of the six English counties mentioned 

 above, one is certainly justified in asking for some proof of the 

 accuracy of the reviewer's statement.

DESCRIPTIONS OP TWO NEW SPECIES OF MUTILLA 

 FROM KUCHING, BORNEO. 



By p. Camkron. 



Mutilla annexa, sp. nov. 



Black, the basal two abdominal segments and the basal fourth 

 of the third, red ; the head and thorax densely covered with white 

 pubescence, the metanotum being also covered with a white de- 

 pressed pile ; the base of abdomen sparsely covered with white hair ; 

 the apex of the second, third, and middle of fourth fringed with 

 longish white hair; the sides of the third and the apices of the 

 following segments thickly fringed with stiff black hair. Wings 

 almost hyaline, the nervures black ; the first abscissa of radius 

 straight, obliquely sloped, about one-fourth longer than the second, 

 which is a little shorter than the third ; the first transverse cubital 

 nervure rounded, oblique ; the second broadly rounded outwardly ; 

 the first transverse cubital nervure is received very shortly before the 

 middle of the cellule. Tegulse black on the inner side, the outer 

 (and larger) part rufo-testaceous. Keel on basal ventral segment 

 straight. Pygidium rather strongly and closely punctured. <y . 

 Length, 9 mm. 



Kuching, Borneo (John Hewitt, B.A.). 



Vertex on either side of the ocellar region finely, closely, obliquely 

 striated ; the ocellar region smooth, raised ; bordered by a narrow 

 furrow. Front sparsely punctured ; a smooth, shallow furrow down 

 the lower half. Antennal scape furrowed below, the sides of the 

 furrow keeled. The basal two joints of the flagellum are not much 

 longer than the third united. Occiput broadly rounded. Pro- and 

 mesothorax strongly, but not very closely punctured ; the scutellum 

 is more coarsely rugosely punctured. Metanotum reticulated ; the 

 basal area has the apical half narrowed, about half the length of the 

 basal part ; the bordering keels are more or less curved. 



Allied to M. attila, Cam. ; the latter is a larger species, has 

 the wings distinctly dark fuscous, the tegulse black, the basal 

 abscissa of the radius is curved, not straight, the first recur-
