EosACCHARissA Kirk. 

 (1) ouwensii sp. n. 



^ Yellow; eyes brown, vertex and basal portion of face whitish, 

 fuscous mark across apical portion of face. Tegmina white, opaque 

 with waxy secretion, veins yellow spreading into cells, five black hair- 

 lines across costal and apical radial cell more or less bordered with 

 yellow, a small black dot in first medio-apical cell, another in fifth, 

 a light yellow mark across clavus and over cubitus, the upper portion 

 of cubitus and the median cross-vein bordered with fuscous. 



Ventral edge of pygophor produced in middle into acutely angular 

 process, lateral edges into sharply pointed angle in middle; anal seg- 

 ment much longer than broad, slightly broader at base than apex, 

 apex truncate, anus at apex, from the ventral surface near apex arises 

 a minute pointed process curved backward; styles reaching to end 

 of anal segment, narrow, curved upward, apex rounded and turned in- 

 ward, ventral edge produced into small angular process near base, dor- 

 sal edge near base produced into rotundate process with a fine spine 

 on top. 



9 Last abdominal sternite longer than broad, hind edge produced 

 acutely angularly in middle. 



Length 2.5mm, ; tegmen S.Simn. 



Hab. Biiitenzorg, Java, on palm trees. (Muir, May.) 

 I have named this little insect after Major Ouwens of the 

 Zoological Museum, Buitenzorg. 



Leptaleocera Muir. 



The following species differs from the type in having the 

 head in profile ovally produced, the junction of vertex and face 

 being at the apex of the extension ; the lateral edges of the pro- 

 notum are curved forward ; the antennae flat but not quite so 

 large proportionally. Until I have examined the type of Ni- 

 certa and Interamma I am dubious as to the validity of this and 

 certain allied genera. 



(1) coccinella sp. n. 



^ Bright scarlet, antennae fuscous along edges, clypeus and coxae 

 yellowish. 



Ventral edge of pygophor produced in middle into small plate longer 

 than broad, slightly narrowing to apex which is formed by two arcs 

 touching in middle, lateral edge of pygophor rounded; anal segment 

 boat-like, longer than broad, narrowing to apex which is subtruncate, 

 sides turned upward, anus situate in concavity of dorsal surface near
