Hab. Sumatra, Mt. Singalang (O. Beccari). 
Excepting the more slender joints of the antennae, this species 
has all the structural characters peculiar to Morphosphaera and 
agrees in the colouration of the head and thorax with the only 
other species of this genus described by Baly, differing however 
in the colour of the elytra and of that of the abdomen. 
dl. Cneorane modesta, n. sp. 
Oblong, testaceous, terminal joints of the antennae, piceous 
or black; thorax impunctate; elytra extremely finely punctured.
