tiella. Spinola, a Colombian genus which I have not seen, and 

 which has been thought of doubtful location. 



1. Nodepus conicicoliis, n. sp. 



Nigro-piceiiSj nitidus, fere laevis^ antennis, palpis, elytrorum 

 fere dimidio basali, tarsis tihiisque rufis, his extus piceis, capite 

 subtiliter, basi crebrius pimciato. Long. 4 millim. 



Hab. Bhamo. 



The head without the eyes is not wider than the thorax. 

 The front part is nearly smooth, but minute scattered punctures 

 are seen on the crown and become thicker towards the base, 

 the labrum is pale, the palpi (of which I can only see the 

 maxillary pair) have the apical joint subulate. The thorax is 

 twice as long as it is wide in front . smooth , but with minute 

 transverse wrinkles, and impressed in the front , and behind in 

 the middle, the antennae have the second to the eighth joints 

 subequal in length, gradually widening, the two penultimate 

 joints obconical , and the terminal joint longer and oval with 

 its tip paler. 



The elytra are a little uneven, substriate but very obsoletely, 

 so, distinct punctures cannot be found, but here and there ob- 

 solete impressions indicate the striae. The two apical dorsal 

 segments of the body are left quite uncovered. The general 

 characters of the body are quite those of Cylidrus, but the 

 antennae are very different. 



Three specimens are all I have seen, and hence I have had 

 no opportunity of dissecting the mouth, and cannot see the 

 labial ? palpi. 



A. Elytra blue or black (sometimes red at base) , with spots or marks 

 of white or yellow scales). 



2. Caliimerus elegans, n. sp. 



ElongaluSj saturate cyaneus, ore testaceo, capite nitido parc.ius, 

 prothorace crebre , profunde punctatis , hoc duplo longiori quam 

 latus, postice angustato, basi foveolato, elytris creberrime punctatis, 

 punctis nonnullis munitis albo-squamosis, duobus pone medium
