edged with fulvous; antennae longer than half the length of 
the body, the second joint as long as the third but thicker ; 
thorax twice as broad as long, the sides straight, the posterior 
margin rounded, surface distinctly and rather closely punctured; 
elytra rather broadly ovate, black, like the head and thorax , 
rather more finely and closely punctured than the latter; po- 
sterior tibiae with a short spine, their first tarsal joint very 
long; elytral epipleurae obsolete below the shoulders ; anterior 
coxal cavities closed. 
Hab. Sumatra, Mt. Singalang (O. Beccari). 
The small size and entirely black colour of this species will 
help in its recognition. The anterior legs are more or less 
testaceous, sometimes only the tibiae are of that colour. 
79. Monolepta unicolor, n. sp. 
Pale testaceous; apical joints of the antennae fuscous; thorax 
scarcely visibly punctured; elytra more distinctly and very 
closely punctured. 
Length 1 line. 
Head impunctate, the frontal tubercles nearly contiguous, the 
carina acute and long, extending to the clypeus; eyes very 
large; antennae as long as the body, the first joint long and 
slender, the second and third, short and equal, testaceous, the 
others fuscous; thorax of usual shape, twice as broad as long, 
the surface with an obsolete depression at each side, visibly 
punctured only, when seen under a very strong lens; elytra 
convex, ovate, finely and closely but more distinctly punctu- 
red than the thorax; first joint of the posterior tarsi much 
longer than the following joints; anterior coxal cavities closed. 
Hab. Celebes, Kandari, April (O. Beccari). 
This species may be known by its small size and the pune 
testaceous colour of the elytra and underside; the head and 
thorax are generally of a little darker colour.
