642 a. lewis 



propygidio punctato; pygidio 9 in circulo sulcato, <? laevi, pro- 

 sterno lobo rufoj sparse punctato, striis anticis late interruptis; 

 mesosterno stria marginali antice interrupta, transversa, utrinque 

 abbreviata; meso-metasternoque haud distinctis; tibiis anticis 4-den- 

 tatis. Long. 2 i / 2 mill. 



The distinctive character of this species is the deep circular 

 sulcus in the middle of the pygidium in the 9 > the disc within 

 the sulcus being smooth. In P. victoriae Mars, there is a similar 

 ring, but it is not deep as in this species and the disc is 

 sculptured. The frontal stria in this and the next species is 

 carried round the back of the head. 



Bhamò, Birmania. Three specimens taken in August 1885. 



42. Paromalus Feae, n. sp. 



Ooalis, niger nitidus, depressiusculus; fronte plana, stria integra 

 tenue impressa; pronoto punctulato, stria integra, pone oculos atte- 

 nuata; elytris, striis abbreviatis , sparse et parum punctatis; pro- 

 pygidio transversim punctulato; pygidio laevi; prosterno lato, stria 

 integra, lobo valide reflexo; mesosterno, stria marginali antice inter- 

 rupta, transversa utrinque abbreviata; meso-metasternoque haud 

 distinctis, tibiis anticis A-dentatis. Long. 2 3 / 4 mill. 



This is unique and the example is probably a male. The 

 presternum has the striae complete, joined before and behind, 

 but terminating before the lobe. The lobe in front of the striae 

 is abruptly and strongly reflexed, and sparsely punctured. The 

 propygidium has a very fine longitudinal line down its centre, 

 which is however difficult to see.

 This corresponds in colour with N. fungorum Lewis from 

 Japan but it is only half the size of it. 



Six examples taken at Tenasserim, Mount Mooleyit, April 



1887.
