Hah. IST.W. Borneo, Kuching. 



Allied to and somewhat resembling C. mirabills Gorh. ISTarrow, 

 elongate, and rather smaller than the unique type of that species ; 

 clothed (including the legs) with very fine hairs. The white 

 markings are (as in other species of this genus) composed of 

 snow-white scales. The pattern is different from that of C. mira- 

 hilis in that there are on each elytron but two white luuules 

 unconnected ; each pair form an oblong ^, but are scarcely joined 

 at the sutm^e. The apex is truncate, as in C. mirabilis. 



A single example, apparently a male, collected Oct. 6, 1899. 



Tbxerus sulcipexxis (Gahan). 



Niger ; prothorace lateraliter nigro-viridescente, dimidio hasali 

 elytrorimn et pilaga suh-semicirculare ad basin pronoti pube 

 rufo-velutina obtectis, dimidio apicali elytrorumatro-pubescente. 

 Antennis articidis 3" ad 10"'"- antice valde dilafatis, articido 

 3" qiumi 4° paullo angustiore ; pronoto ad imedium basis 

 paullo gibboso ; elytris utrisque quadri-sulcatis, interstitiis sat 

 latis, leviter convexis. 

 Long. 11 ; lat. 2| 'mm. 



Hob, Kuching (March 1900). Two examples; in British 

 Museum and Hope Collection, Oxford. 



This species seems nearest allied to T. cingalensis White and 

 T. parry anus Gorh., but differs from these and from all other 

 known species of the genus in having the third joint of the 

 antennae almost as strongly dilated as the fourth, and the elytra 

 impressed with longitudinal grooves.

DiuRUS SHELFORDi Senna. (Plate XX. fig. 6, 5 .) 

 Moderately elongate, stoutish, black, provided with whitish 

 scales of differing size sunk in the punctures ; the head and the 

 metarostrum with punctiform close-set scales, the joints of the 

 antennae clothed with long accumbent scales. 



(^ • Head slightly longer than broad, with the sides almost 

 straight and a fovea between the eyes, which are prominent ; the 

 metarostrum is twice as long as the head and hardly nai'rowed 

 before the antennae ; the prorostrum is short, naked, dark reddish 

 brown. The antennae are inserted near the ajoex of the rostrum : 

 the 3rd joint is longer than the 4th, the 4th a little longer than 

 the 5th, the 7th and 8th subequal ; the three apical joints are 

 distinct, slightly thickened and finely pubescent. 



The pi-othorax is similarly shaped as in D.furcillatus (Gylh.), 

 but comparatively broader ; its upper surface is covered with
