CARABIDAE FROM BURMA 293 



59. Tachys (Barytachys) laius, Peyron, Ann. Soc. Ent. Fr. 1858, 

 p. 364, pi. 9, fig. 3 {Bembidium id.). 



Bhamò. One example. 



Agrees precisely (except that the yellow elytral spots are 

 rather smaller) with numerous examples taken in Armenia by 

 D.i" Millingen, with which I have compared it. 



60. Tachys (Barytachys) bioculatus, Putzeys^ Ann. Mus. Civ. 

 Genova, YII, p. 743. 



Teinzò; Karin Asciuii Ghecù, alt. 1400-1500 m. ; Karin Gheba, 

 alt. 900-1100 m,; Karin Ghecù alt. 1300-1400 m. ; Palon (Pegu). 

 Also a common insect in Ceylon. 



The following is evidently a variety of it: — var. T. homo- 

 stictuSj, macula humerali rufa, antennis interdum toto melleo 

 flavis. — Same localities. In examples of the type form, a red 

 tinge is sometimes observable on the shoulders, and the an- 

 tennae vary in the darkness of the joints 4-11. 



61. Tachys (Barytachys) expansicollis, n. sp. 



T. hioculato (Putz.) baud dissimilis ; subaeneo-niger politus, 

 elytris utrinque maculis duabus rufis, antennis basi pedibusque 

 melleo ila vis. Sulci frontales breves et lati subduplicati. Thorax 

 antico valde rotundato-dilatatus, convexus, marginibus depressis 

 explanatis, mox pone medium subito angustatus et sinuatus, 

 angulis posticis rectis, carinulaque supra angulum valida elon- 

 gata, fovea utrinque basali profunda. Elytra valde convexa, stria 

 suturali acute impressa, 8.''°' profunda flexuosa medio latissime 

 interrupta, caeteris obsoletissimis ; poris setiferis discoidalibus 

 duobus, anteriori prope basin, posteriori paullo post medium, 

 striola recurrenti in mediam apicem brevi, recta. — Long. 2 ^f^ 

 millim. 



Karin Ghecù, alt. 1300-1400 m., and Karin Asciuii Ghecù 

 1400-1500 m. Two examples. 



In the curious form of the thorax this species must resemble 

 (according to the description) T. interpunclatus Putz., from which 

 it differs much in the sculpture of the elytra.
