Oryctodeeus latitaksis.

PaPUANA WOODLARKIANA. 

 Xylotrupes ivoodlurkianus Moutr. Ann. Soc. Agric. Lyon, (2) vii. 1855j p. 21. 



Mimika River ; 4 ? . 



I described this species as Pwpuana seniistriata in 1911 (Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. (8) 

 viii. p. 157, pi. iv. figs. 4, 5, 6), but, as it is certainly a very widely distributed and 

 variable insect, it seems highly probable that it can be identified with one of the 

 Jiitherto-unrecognizable species of Xylotrupes of Montrouzier. 



Papua^a angusta. (PI. XXXIX. fig. 13.) 



Papuana angusta Arrow, Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist. (8) xiv. 1914, p. 261-. 

 Utakwa River ; 2 d , 1 ? . 



This species was also taken by Meek upon Mt. Goliath, 5000-7000 ft., in Central 

 Dutch New Guinea. 



DiPELICUS NASUTUS. 



Dipelicus nasutus Bates, Proc. Zool. Soc. 1877, p. 153, pi. xxiv. fig. 4. 

 Oronotus quadriiuber Fairm. Le Naturaliste, iii. 1881, p. 340. 



Mimika River ; 1 c^ . 



M. Rene Oberthiir has kindly allowed me to see the female specimen described 

 by Bates. It undoubtedly belongs to this species, the male of which was afterwards 

 described by Fairmaire. 



Rutelinse. 



Anomala ^neiventris. 



Anomala csneiveniris Fairm. Ann. Soc. Ent. Belg. xxvii. 2, 1883, p. 6. 



Mimika and Setakwa Rivers ; 3 d . 



These male specimens differ in certain respects from Polynesian examples of 

 A. (Bneiventris, but it seems inadvisable to separate them until a thorough study of the 

 group can be made.
