100 REV. H. S. GORHAM ON NEW [Mar. 5, 
9. TELEPHORUS SEMIFULVUS, Sp. nov. 
Ater, nitidus ; elytris subrugosis, dimidio basali sordide ochraceis ; 
prothorace quadrato, medio late fossulato. 
Long. 6 millim. 
Hab. South India, Mt. Kodeicanel (Castets). 
The head and thorax are black and shining, the mandibles and 
front of the elypeus are obscurely red. The thorax is small, square, 
with all the angles distinct ; the elytra are narrow, a little wider than 
the thorax, shining, but not smooth, having a subrugose sculpture, 
which is roughest on the black apical half. The legs and body 
beneath are black, the claws are simple. ‘The antennz are entirely 
black, their joints (excepting the short second one) elongate and 
subequal in length, and not at all serrate. 
One specimen. 
Obs. This species has the appearance of a small Rhagonycha, but 
is separated by the simple claws. 
10. TELEPHORUS MANDUCATUS, Sp. Noy. 
Flavus ; antennis, pedibus (tibiarum femorumque basibus preter- 
missis) nigris ; elytris nitidis, nigro-fuscis, basi et marginibus 
lateralibus flavis. 
Long. 9 millim. 
Hab. India. 
The head, thorax, the entire body beneath, the coxe, trochanters, 
base of the femora and basal half of the tibize, as well as the base of 
the elytra, with their lateral margins to within about one third of 
their length at the apex, are yellow. The thorax is wider than long, 
with its surface even and smooth, the margins a little expanded 
laterally. The antenne are entirely black, rather stout and com- 
pressed, and about two thirds of the length of the body. 
This is a distinct species, for the identification of which the cha- 
racters above given will, I believe, prove sufficient. I have, however, 
only seen one example, sent to me by Mr. A. E. Hudd, of Clifton, 
Bristol, without more particular indication of the locality. 
11. TELEPHORUS HUDDI, Sp. nov. 
Flavus ; antennis (basi excepta) tarsisque nigris, elytrorum quarto 
parte apicali indeterminate nigro-fusco. 
Long. 11 millim. 
Hab. India. 
Head, prothoras, and elytra very smooth, the latter slightly 
pubescent. Thorax transverse, the sides and front rounded so as to 
leave no anterior angles; the base nearly straight, finely margined, 
all the margins a little reflexed. Legs rather robust, hinder tibize 
gently curved, tarsi with their basal joint equal to the next three. 
Abdomen, body beneath, legs excepting the tarsi entirely clear 
ochraceous yellow. 
This species is only imperfectly known to me, and cannot be 
fully described at present.
