I have not seen any other specimens of this insect, since I 

 described it from a pair obtained by AVallace.

 obscure and will need further revision.)

The identification of these insufficiently described species must 

 necessarily be problematical. There is little doubt, however, that 

 the insect figured by Spinola is the species of which I have seen 

 many specimens from Malacca, Java, and the neighbouring islands. 

 The blue or green tint on the thorax shoxn by Spinola is not 

 constant, but is characteristic of the species when it occurs.

Very close to S. dcindeloides, larger and with the metasternum 

 and abdomen and base of the legs red : the original description is 

 "White's. Possibly only a large form of a widely distributed 

 species.

The general colour of this insect is deep black ; the middle of 

 the body beneath is vaguely brownish red ; the front of the head, 

 basal half of the antennae, the reflexed margin of the base of the 

 thorax, the base of the elytra (the shoulders more widely), the 

 scutellum, the front tarsi, the tips of the middle and posterior 

 tarsi, and the trochanters are rusty red. The elytra are striated 

 nearly to the apex, becoming granulose there ; and the interstices
