Huh, Burma {G. Q. Corhett). 



Head dark reddish brown, very closely punctured and with 

 a thin greyish pubescence. Antenna? longer than the body, 

 twelve-jointed, with the first joint about equal in length to 

 the third and distinctly longer than tlie fourth, with the joints 

 from the fifth to the eleventh subequal or very slightly 

 diminishing in length, each shorter than the fourth ; the 

 twelfth joint distinctly shorter than the eleventh ; the fourth 

 joint with its proximal half testaceous and clothed with a 

 whitish pubescence. Prothorax slightly constricted near the 

 base and still more slightly near the apex, clothed with a 

 dense yellowish-cinereous pubescence, which is raised in the 

 form of two small tufts on the middle of the disk; the sides 

 and two small patches near the base are less densely pubes- 

 cent, are darker in colour, and are seen to be rather thickly 

 punctured. The elytra are mostly of a dark brown colour, 

 with the base, a dorsal (slightly arcuate) vitta on each side, 

 and a narrow lateral border reddish brown ; they are rather 

 strongly and thickly punctured on the basal two thirds, with 

 the punctures arranged, some irregularly, others in tolerably 

 definite rows, one of which accompanies the dorsal reddish- 

 brown vitta; the pubescence is mostly greyish in colour, but 

 forms three narrow white bands — one transverse and slightly 

 zigzag, forming a border behind to the basal reddish-brown 

 portion, two posteriorly, which, as they approach the suture, 

 separate from one another and again converge, so as to 

 enclose a somewhat rounded space with a dark spot in its 

 centre. 



Eunidia lateralis, sp. n. 



Supra pube fulvescente dense vestita, vitta lata utrinque a capita ad 

 apicem elytrorum extensa nigro-fusca ; eorpore subtus pedibusque 

 cinereo tenuiter pubescentibus ; autennia nigro-fuscis. 



Long. 6-5 mm. 



Hah. Canara, in South India {A. Bell). 



This species resembles Eunidia simplex, Gahan, but may 

 be readily distinguished by the rather broad and distinct dark 

 brown vitta which runs along each side from the head to the 

 apex of the elytra : this vitta has a nearly straight ujjper 

 margin ; it is narrowed posteriorly in correspondence with the 

 narrowing of the elytra towards the apex, and it ends at the 

 angle formed by the slightly curved postero-extornal margin
