^ CARABIDAE FROM BURMA 397 



punctulato-granulosa pubescentia, subopaca, costis parum elevatis 

 vix nitidis — Long. 6-7 millim. 

 Rangoon; Palon (Pegu). 



351. Brachinus ? 



Moulmein. A single example of a doubtful species. 



352. Brachinus sp. ?

353. Styphromerus fusciceps, Schmidt-Goeb., Faun. Birm. p. 73. 

 {Brachinus id.) ; Chaud., Monogr. des Brach., p. 82. 



Shwegoo; Karin Gheba, alt. 900-1100 m. 



Varies greatly in size, from 5 to 7 millim. As Chaudoir 

 suspected, judging from the description only, the species is very 

 closely allied to S. dichrous {B. bicolor^ Boh.) from Hong Kong 

 and a larger series of examples would probably decide that the 

 two are not specifically distinct. 1 see no difference in the form 

 and punctuation of the thorax.

 'steriori laterali transversa testaceo-flavis. Caput sat robustum, 

 postico infuscatum, fronte et vertice grosse striatis, spatio me- 

 diano angUvSto triangulari colloque laevibus, fronte anteriori laevi 

 bisulcata; palpis pallide testaceis. Thorax subtiliter strigulosus 

 vix nitidus, disco utrinque laeviori spatio parallelo inter lineas 

 dorsales transversim striato. Elytra valde abbreviata (./?) apice 

 lata et late sinuato-truncata, haud sericea, erecte pilosa utrinque
