1889.] INSECTS FROM MOUNT KINIBALU. 393 



lata scairosa incompleta, articulo 3'° quam scapo dimidio hre- 



viore, 4" adhuc ireviore, cateris hrevissimis. Thorax post 



medium tiiberculo acuto armatus. Elytra thorace fere duplo 



latiora, absque cristis, apice rotundata. Mesosterntim pro- 



ductum, conicum. Tibice intermedice exfus oblique sulcatce. 



Ungues parum divaricati. 



The incompleteness of the ridge limiting the cicatrice of the scape 



(it is, in fact, very short) would remove this genus from the group 



to which Achthophora belongs, but in all its other characters it agrees 



with the group. The claws in three species of Achthophora which 



I have examined are as feebly divaricated as in the new genus. 



EUSYNTHETA BREVICORNIS.
