NEW PHYTOPHAGOUS COLEOPTERA 91 
thorax three times as broad as long, the sides very strongly 
rounded and narrowed in front, the anterior angles distinct 
but not produced, the posterior ones, obsolete, the posterior 
margin slightly widened towards the middle; surface entirely 
impunctate, rather convex; scutellum black; elytra very finely 
and rather closely punctured, without any basal depression , 
narrowed at the base and near the apices where the surface is 
strongly and rather suddenly defiexed; underside and legs 
fulvous, the apices of the tibiae and the tarsi stained with 
fuscous. 
Hab. Borneo, Sarawak (Doria and Beccari). 
In one specimen which seems to me to belong to the male 
sex, the elytra are more finely and scarcely visibly punctured; 
in the female there is an obsolete longitudinal groove parallel 
with the sides of the thorax at the surface of the latter.
