of the two genera of " Pacholenides " enumerated by Lacor- 

 daire. 



Dirodes russatus. 



D. subcylindricus, rufo-brunneus, sparse setosulus ; antennis brevi- 

 biis ; femora dentata ; tibice anticte curvatse. Long. 4^ lin. 



liah. Sumatra. 



Subcylindrical, reddish brown, sparingly setulose; head 

 convex in front j rostrum stout, curved, as long as the pro- 

 thorax, thinly punctured ; scrobes comparatively short, con- 

 nivent beneath ; antennae short ; first joint of the funicle sub- 

 globose, second rather longer, the rest transverse, gradually 

 broadening into the ovate club ; prothorax subtransverse, 

 roughly granulate, ocular lobes feeble ; scutellum raised ; 

 elytra nearly cylindrical, broader than the prothorax, the base 

 shortly and abruptly sloping forwards, striate-punctate, punc- 

 tures oblong, the interstices convex, finely granulate, poste- 

 rior callus prominent ; prosternum not eraarginate ; meta- 

 sternum short ; abdomen with the first suture obliterated, 

 the conjoined segments very large and convex ; femora with 

 an acute tooth beneath ; fore tibige short and curved ; tai-si 

 gradually broader to the third joint, which is strongly lobed, 

 fourth joint elongate, its claws united at the base. 



Euthycus incisus. 



E. oblongus, iiiger ; prothorace utrinque apicem versus linea pro- 

 funda impressa iiistructo, disco fortiter bicanalieulato ; elytris 

 carinis alte elevatis muriitis. Long. 6 lin. 



Hah. India. 



Oblong, black ; rostrum rather long, stout, with numerous 

 coarse, closely-set punctures ; antennas ferruginous, second 

 joint of the funicle nearly twice as long as the first ; club 

 pubescent ; prothorax longer than broad, rugose, having on 

 each side a deeply incised vertical line near the apex, disk with 

 two regular longitudinal grooves or canals ; no scutellum ,• elytra 

 twice as long as the prothorax, broadly rounded at the apex, 

 the sutural margin raised as well as two lines on each elytron, 

 which unite posteriorly and are more or less covered with 

 short, yellowish, erect setae, the intervals with coarse oblong- 

 punctures ; legs moderately long ; femora toothed ; posterior 

 tibiae elongate, curved. 



In size and outline like PUnthus porcatiis^ but with a 

 peculiarly sculptured prothorax &c. I have placed it with 

 Euthycus rather than with PUnthus^ on account of the oblique
