 millim.

Besides tlie black setiferous punctures, the elytra have a few 

 simple colourless punctures, mostly in lines. 



Ebtssamena acuta, n. sp. 



Ab JE. saperdina diftert thoracis tuberculis medianis acutis, 

 elytrisque fascia posteriori nulla, anteriori ad suturam late in- 

 terrupta. Grriseo adpresso-pubescens, nigro-punctulata ; antennis 

 piceo-rufis, articulis 3-11 basi albo-testaceis. Long. 12^ millim.

Probably a variety of the preceding. 



Eetssamena spinidoesis, n. sp. (Plate II. fig. 10.) 

 Nigra, griseoad presso-pubescens, nigro-setosa, punctis seti- 

 feris nigro-cinctis apud thoracem et elytrorum basin asperatis vel 

 acute tuberculatis ; thoracis tuberculis medianis vix elevatis 

 obtusis ; elytris sicut in E. saperdina, sed utrinque versus basin 

 tuberculo spiniformi armatis, fasciaque nigra unica pauUo post

Mtccolamia, nov. gen. 



Corpus parvum, subcylindricum, ex parte glabrum, sparsim 

 longe setosum. Caput exsertura, fronte convexa, tuberibus 

 antenniferis late separatis ; oculi reniformes, grosse granulati. 

 Anteunge corpore pauUo longiores, sparsim setosse, scapo brevi, 

 ovato, articulo secundo sat elongato, 3 et 4 cseteris singulatim 

 longioribus. Thorax cylindricus, tuberculo mediano valido acuto. 

 Elytra apice rotuudata, cariuula centrali-basali plus minusve 

 elevata, dorso anteriori depresso, posteriori convexo. Pro- et 

 mesosteriia sat lata et plana ; acetabula antica late hiantia, 

 intermedia clausa. Pedes breves ; femora clavata ; tibiae inter- 

 medise et posteriores extus ante apicem profunde sinuatse et 

 setosse ; tarsi breves et lati, posteriorum art. prime quam 

 secundus vix longiori, unguibus divaricatis. 



The only described genus to which this new form can be said 

 to be closely allied is Phlyarus (Pascoe) from Borneo. The 

 short ovate form of the antennal scape aud deeply sinuated outer 

 edge of the four hinder tibiae are the same in both genera.
