COLTDIID^ OBTAINED I'N CETLON. 125 



profundis, inagnis, valde approximatis, interstitiis angustissimis ; elytris 

 argute costatis. Long. 3 millim. 



AnteiiBge with the tenth joint much larger than the terminal 

 joint. Head small, closely strigose-punctate. T^iorax about as 

 long as broad, truncate in front, the sides finely margined, 

 obtusely angulate in front of the middle ; the surface dull, 

 scarcely uneven ; the sculpture consisting of large punctures so 

 closely placed that the interstices are merely very fine reticula- 

 tions. Elytra rather hollowed near the apex at the suture, with 

 the suture a little raised, and each with three strongly elevated 

 fine costse ; the first, or inner costa, extends to the apex, and the 

 second nearly does so, while the outer is strongly elevated behind, 

 and curved round so as to form an acutely raised apical margin. 

 Dikoya, 30th January, 1882 ; a single mutilated example. 



Leptogltphtjs ceistattjs, n. sp. 



Piceus ; antennis, pedibus elytrisque testaceis, his sutura margineque 

 externo fuscescentibus ; capite rufo, utrinque cristate ; prothorace in- 

 sequali, lateribus in medio angulatis ; elytris argute costatis. Long. 2| 

 millim. 



Antennae with large round club, consisting of two joints con- 

 solidated, but with the suture separating them still distinct. 

 Head small, but with large convex eyes which are finely faceted, 

 and having on the inner side of each eye a thick, short, strongly 

 elevated crest, giving the space between them the appearance of 

 being hollowed. Thorax hexagonal, a little broader than long, 

 truncate in front, the sides angulate in the middle — hence the 

 hexagonal appearance; the surface rather uneven owing to a 

 broad indefinite impression along the middle, and a shorter one 

 in front of the base on each side ; closely and rather coarsely 

 punctured, quite dull. Elytra with the suture slightly elevated, 

 and, besides, each with three fine but strongly elevated costae ; 

 the first and second do not reach quite to the apex, and the first 

 is very greatly elevated behind, while the outer one is continued 

 along the apex to the suture ; there is no striation or distinct 

 punctuation. Under surface dull, only very indistinctly punctate, 

 the hind margins of the ventral segments obliquely shaved oif. 



Hadley, Dikoya, 10th January, 1882 ; a single example. 



Although this little insect differs from its Japanese represen- 

 tative in the structure of the club of the antennae, I think it 

 would not be right to separate it generically at present.
