The vertex of this species is loni>er than broad with the 

 a])ex sliglitly narrower than the base. It is not congeneric with 

 Ddphacodcs niiilsdiili Fich., neither is it strictly congeneric 

 with Afrgaiiicliis uohilus (Germar), hut I think it is better 

 ])lace(l with the latter than with the former. 



I have s})ecimens of this s]iecies from Fiji, Aml)oina, 

 Coram, India, Philippines, Sonth China (Lo-fii-shan, 3,000 

 feet), Formosa and .Ta])an. They may (>ventiially 1)0 divided 

 into two snbsjx'cies as th(» l^hili]i])ines and Indian species 

 differ somewhat from the ty])e.
