1866. ] MR. F. P. PASCOE ON THE COLEOPTERA OF PENAKG. 237 



GOLSINDA. 



Gohinda, J. Thomson, Essai Class. Ceramb. p. 343. 



GOLSINDA CORALLINA, J. Thomson, /. C. p. 344. 



The single example in Mr. Lamb's collection differs a little in the 

 colour of its antennee and legs from the Borneo species. In the 

 former a pale ashy replaces the bright orange of the latter, and all 

 the joints of the antenna?, except the last, are ringed ; beyond this 

 I am unable to distinguish it. M. Mouhot also took it iu Laos. 



Palimna.

Numerous individuals of this species were found by Mr. Wallace 

 in Sarawak. 



Palimna mouhotii. 



P. nigra, albo maeulata, clensissime et hreviter pubescens ; elytris 

 apice rotundatis ; articulo ultimo tarsorum toto nigro. 



Covered with a very dense and short black pubescence, marked 

 vith large definite, occasionally almost confluent, white spots; head 

 white, band between the eyes and behind them black ; prothorax 

 a little transverse, the lateral angle fringed with a row of small black 

 granules, the disk irregular, with a large black patch, varied with 

 two or three spots of white ; scutellum scutiform, black, the centre 

 white ; elytra with two erect spines at the base of each, the shoulders 

 also slightly spinous or tuberculate, an oblique angular line on each 

 side, the apex rounded ; legs and antennae ringed with black and 

 white, the first two joints of the tarsi white bordered with black, 

 the last two entirely black. Length 10 lines ( <$ )-13 ( $ ). 



This description has been drawn up from Laos specimens collected 

 by the late M. Mouhot. The species bears a very decided resem- 

 blance to P. tessellata, but the colours are much purer and more 

 clearly limited, the prothorax shorter, more coarsely toothed, and 

 the last tarsal joint is entirely black. There are other differences, 

 which may, however, not be so permanent.
