Rufa, supra metallico-viridis, prothorace elytrisque subopacis, 

 rufo-marginatis, grosse punctatis, his tuberculis tribus conicis ; 

 humeris costatis, et angulo posteriore spiniformi. Long. 6

 Hob. Borneo, Kina Balu (Whitehead). 



Body beneath and legs red ; head red except the crown ; antennae 

 blackish, their basal joint sometimes wholly red; the front produced 

 and with a carina between the bases of the antennae ; thorax sub- 

 quadrate, coarsely punctured at the sides, obsoletely so in the middle, 

 green above and opaque, red beneath. Elytra with the shoulders 

 elevated, with a double costate elevation in addition to the costate 

 subniarginal interstice, and three conical elevations, of which the 

 middle is the larger and which on its exterior side is excavated, and 

 metallic and not green in that part ; the spine-like production of the 

 hind angle is large and sharp and compressed horizontally, it is 

 green in the middle but fiery copper at its apex ; the sutural angle is 

 yellow, and the margins of the elytra external to the humeral callus 

 aie brownish with a coppery or purple reflexion. The apical margin 

 is not toothed, but there are one or two minute serrations at the 

 base of the spine. 



Six specimens of this beetle were obtained by Mr. Whitehead 

 at about 1000 feet altitude on Kina Balu. 



Hispopria, Baly. 



HiSPOPRIA GRANDIS. 



Hispopria grandis, Baly, Cat. of Hisp. in Coll. Brit. Mus. 1858, 

 p. 95. 



Kina Balu (Wliitehead), 2 specimens. 



Anisodera (Chevr.), Baly. 

 Anisodera, sp. n. (a). 



Kina Balu. A dull red species apparently belonging to Sect. A. b 

 of Baly's Catalogue. The species of Anisodera are so difficult to 

 distinguish, that I do not feel disposed to describe this till I have 

 further acquaintance with them. 



Anisodera, sp. n. (b). 

 Kina Balu (Whitehead). 



A single specimen of a smaller species with black legs and autennse, 

 and much rougher elytra and coarsely punctured thorax. 



Erotylid^. 

 Tetralanguria splendens, Wied. 

 Kina Balu, many examples.
