 Doliops fros'ti sp. nov. Plate 1, fig. 10. 



Head, prothorax, and elytra dark greenish bronze with pale 

 green tomentose markings and spots. Head with an oblong 

 tomentose stripe on front to vertex. Antennae, first joint cop- 

 pery bronze, third blackish tomentose and sparsely setose, fourth 

 with basal half whitish tomentose. Prothorax longer than 

 broad, minutely scatteredly punctate, with an anterior submar- 

 ginal groove and a strongly pronounced posterior submarginal 

 groove; the interspace between the latter groove and posterior 

 margin broader than anterior interspace. At apical half a 

 broad irregular pale green tomentose transverse band. Elytra 

 near base coarsely irregularly punctured, the punctuation to- 

 ward apex sparser and finer. Each elytron with a wedge-shaped 

 tomentose subsutural spot at base. Before the middle a large 

 transverse tomentose patch extending from near suture, slightly 

 divergent to lateral margin. In apical third a narrow trans- 

 verse band, also extending from near suture to lateral margin. 

 Apical fourth with a broad V-shaped marking. Underside 

 sparsely grayish pubescent. Mesosternum, metasternum, and 

 first abdominal sternite with a large pale green tomentose spot

 Samar, Catarman (R. L. Frost) . Type in the collection of the 

 Bureau of Science, Manila. 



I name this interesting species in honor of its collector, 

 through whose kindness I received a number of insects from 

 Samar Island. 



This species bears a truly remarkable likeness to Pachyrrhyn- 

 chus latifasciatus Waterh. The exact locality of the latter 

 species is not known; but, on account of the great mimicry 

 aspect of the two species involved, it seems very probable that 

 P. latifasciatus Waterh. was collected by Cuming in Samar
