species has the smaller head of the two and is easily distinguished 

 by colour and pattern. Its legs are I think shorter at least the 

 posterior pair, which are very long in 0. angusticeps. 



Three specimens. 



Obs. This insect has also been recently sent from Burma 

 (Ruby Mines) and Assam Sudiya and Patkai Mts. by M.'" Doherty.

The whole insect is of a very dark pitchy black, with the 

 fexception of the mouth and palpi and first joint of the antennae, 

 the base of the legs and underside of the femora, and of three 

 narrow silvery-white fasciae, the first on the base of the elytra 

 not passing the humeral callus, the second a little above the 

 middle, the third one quarter before the apex, connected rather 

 distinctly with an ashy apical spot. The elytra are striate, with 

 punctures in the striae. The club of the antennae is rather 

 strong, the apical joint is cultriform, quite normal in this genus. 

 Thorax of nearly even width before and behind; the constricted 

 lines, fine and near the margins, quite distinct. 



One example.
