are granulose, or rather are broken by the coarse punctures of the 

 striae in the basal half. 



1 have possessed this species for many years, under the name 

 Tmmerale. M. Chevrolat's description is not very accurate, as in 

 a very long series of examples I do not find any with two linear 

 grey fascise. The legs are black, with the exceptions which I have 

 pointed out ; the femora are not more stout than is usual in the 

 smaller species of this genus. The ai)plication of the name 

 Tiumeralc came about by a reprehensible system of so labelling 

 species which it was intended to describe ; my specimens were pro- 

 bably so named by White for the late Mr. "W. W. Saunders, and it 

 is well that that name should now drop for that of M. Chevrolat. 

 It is common apparently at Singapore and Perak.

1 have already (I. c. p. 101) suggested that these may be, and 

 probably are, synonyms, but in such an obscure genus I cannot 

 affirm that they are so.

Black with a slight brown tint, and clothed with long upright 

 hairs ; only the thorax is rufous, and the mandibles and two basal 

 joints of the antenna pitchy red. The thorax is not so conically* 

 contracted as in C. sanguinicoUis, Spin, (to which I refer the 

 species from the Andaman Isles), but the sides are subparaUel 

 till they are rounded in to the strangulation. Its disk is very 

 smooth and sparsely impressed with a few distinct points ; it is a 

 little depressed in the middle, but with no constricted line in front. 

 The antennse are remarkable for the mode in which the rami 

 spring from the base of each joint ; each ramus is as long as three 

 joints, and the apical joint widens from its base to near the middle, 

 and from thence is awl-shaped. The basal node of the thorax is 

 black and has the usual double tumidity; the front tibiae are 

 compressed, widened in the middle, and somewhat distorted.
