CLERI DAE FROM BURMAH 745 



stout, 2."*^ bead-shaped , 3J^ to 8."^ forming a short funiculus , 

 3.^'*^ longer than those succeeding, 8."' very short, 9.^^ and 10.^*^ 

 dull black, as long together as the funiculus, 11.''^ oblong, rather 

 narrow, as long as the two proceeding. Thorax with a distinct, 

 but wide constriction in front ; sides somewhat explanate and 

 round, a small impression in the middle of the base. Elytra soft, 

 widening behind, very thickly punctured, punctures small and 

 confluent, on the sides may be traced obsolete larger punctures 

 in vague series. Legs and body beneath black, disk of the pro- 

 thorax infuscate. Allied to Pelonmm? exlraneum^ Gorh. [Trans. 

 Ent. Soc, 1877, p. 424]. — Although I cannot believe that these 

 eastern species truly belong to the American genus Pelonium, 

 yet I cannot at present find any great difference in their 

 structure. 



Three specimens.

Nigrum, sub-nitidum, capite frothoraceque rufìs crebre punctatis,

The antennae in this species have the three club joints enor- 

 mous in proportion to the funiculus, either one of them being 

 as long or longer than the whole basal part of the antennae. 

 Eyes deeply cut out, reniform. Thorax depressed and flattened 

 behind. Elytra with rather irregular subgemellate rows of 

 punctures, becoming evanescent, where the obscure red fascia 

 occurs.
