Species ofLahisfrom the Malayan Region. '201 



Length 24 mm. 



Hub. Perak {Doherty). 



One male, slightly immature. Near L. quadriguttatus, 

 Er., and L. diversenotatus, Pic, the head, and the legs and 

 antennae in great part, testaceous, the anten)ial joints 3-10 

 long and slender, the postbasal transverse whitish fascia on 

 the elytra rather narrow and nearly reaching the suture, the 

 legs a little longer. The present insect cannot be referred 

 to either of the two forms named L. dohertyi by Pic in 1910 

 [' L'Echange,' xxvi. p. 62 (Aug.), type from Sumbava ; /. c. 

 p. 84 (Nov.), type from Perak] ; the characters, however, 

 given in his table of the 4-spotted species agree with the 

 Perak insect before me, except as regards the shape of 

 the elytral spots.

Additional examples of the following species have also 

 been detected in the Fry Collection : — 



L.fiavicornis, F. (No. 2). One cJ , Andaman Is. 



L. malleifer, Champ. (No. 20). A pair from Yemen, Arabia 

 (Millingeti). Types from Punjab, and recently found 

 (20. iii. 1921) by Dr. M. Cameron at Mossy Falls, 

 Mussoorie. 



L. birmaniciis, Champ. (No. 23). Three (J ^ and three ? ? 

 taken at Carin Cheba, Karen Mts., Burma (L. Fea), are 

 less elongate than the types, and the males have the 

 second antennal joint a little narrower and less angulatc.
