Teinzò. One example, which I refer to TaeniolobuSj, of which 

 it has the faeies, with some little doubt. 



8. Distichus lucidulus, Chaudoir, Monogr.. d. Scaritides 1880. 

 (Ann. Soc. Ent. Belg. t. XXIII), p. 57. 



Rangoon; Palon (Pegu). Recorded by Chaudoir from Dacca, 

 Rangoon and Siam. The Siamese examples , as Chaudoir men- 

 tions and which I can confirm from several examples I have 

 examined, have 5 setigerous pores on the 3.'''* e:ytrai interstice, 

 those from Rangoon only 4. As the former are decidedly less 

 elongated and flatter than the Burmese insect, they may prove 

 a distinct species , although in all other details of sculpture the 

 two forms show little difference.
