XLII.—New Coleoptera in the British Museum. 
By CuHar_es O. WATERHOUSE. 
Dynastide. 
Fleteronychus simplex, n. sp. 
Niger, bene convexus, nitidus, subtus piceus; thoracis lateribus laxe 
subtiliter punctulatis ; elytris sat fortiter punctato-striatis, apice 
crebre punctato ; pygidio sat fortiter punctato, medio apiceque fere 
leevibus ; pedibus nigro-piceis, tarsis piceis, tibiarum corona apicali 
spinis circiter quinque instructa. 
Long. 6-7 lin. 
Very similar to 1. arator, Fabr., but with fewer spines at 
the apex of the posterior’ tibia. Head finely rugulose. 
Thorax one third broader than long, parallel at the sides, 
arcuately narrowed in front; punctuation very fine, not very 
close (often obscure); the punctures at the posterior angles 
distinct, and at the anterior angles rather strong. Scutellum 
smooth. Elytra with the sutural stria strongly marked, 
closely punctured. Hach elytron with eight lines of distinct 
punctures ; the intervals between them nearly equal; the first 
line is entire; the second does not quite reach the apex; the 
third and fourth terminate at one quarter from the apex; the 
fifth and sixth lose themselves in the apical punctuation; the 
seventh and eighth are composed of distinct punctures near 
the shoulder, but posteriorly the punctures are extremely fine 
and the line is apt to be broken. ‘There are generally a few 
punctures on the first interstice. The apex is moderately, 
closely, and strongly punctured. The two lines which form 
the stridulating-organ on the propygidium are very distinct, 
nearly parallel, and a little less than one millimetre apart. 
At the apex of the posterior tibie there are the usual two 
strong spines at the lower angle, and two long, very slender 
spines at the upper angle; on the outer margin there are five 
not very long, stout, lanceolate spines. 
Hab. China (J. C. Bowring, Esq.). 
Cetoniide. 
Pecilopharis uniformis, n. sp. 
Allied to P. emilia, White, but relatively a little broader. 
Entirely of an olivaceous-green colour, immaculate. Head 
finely punctured ; the clypeus not impressed in the middle of 
the front margin, which is nearly straight. Thorax a trifle
