ORIENTAL SPECIES OF CALLISTOMIMUS. 239 



with a very faint brassy tinge, each with two interrupted yellow 

 fasciae; joints 1-3 of antennas, palpi, and legs flavous ; buccal 

 organs, underside of head, epipleurse of prothorax, and a faint 

 common spot at apex of elytra more or less testaceous. 



Head (TO mm. wide) convex, moderately and closely punctate, 

 hardly less closely on middle of front than elsewhere, labrum 

 truncate, maxillae not longer than mandibles; antennae nearly 

 half the length of body, the 8 apical joints wide, flattened, and 

 quite black. Prothorax (1*2 mm. wide) not much wider than 

 long, convex, sides moderately rounded in front, sinuate before 

 hind angles, which are acute, reflexed, and point both outwards 

 and backwards ; median line and basal foveae deep, surface closely 

 and coarsely punctate. Elytra (2*10 x 3*0 mm.) ovate, convex, 

 with well marked shoulders, strife fairly deep and finely punctate, 

 intervals moderately but closely punctate, the punctures hardly 

 confluent; front fascia from stria 3 to margin, transverse, 

 widening a little at margin towards shoulder and tingeing the 

 epi pleura with yellow; hind fascia from stria 3 to 9, a little 

 oblique outwards and backwards. Underside shiny, moderately 

 punctate, rather more closely and finely on ventral surface. 

 Practically the whole body is shortly pubescent. 



Much smaller than C. chalcocephalus ; head more finely and 

 more uniformly punctate, eyes less prominent, prothorax red (not 

 seneous), much narrower and more strongly sinuate before hind 

 angles, elytra relatively longer and narrower, more finely punctate, 

 the yellow markings differently shaped. 



Sikkim, Gopaldhara {H. Stevens), 1 ex. rf . Mr. Stevens has 

 kindly allowed me to retain the type. 



Callistomimus subnotatus, sp. n. 



Length 5-75 mm. Width 2'50 mm. 



This species bears so strong a likeness to C. jucundus m., next 

 described, that I need do no more than point out the characters 

 in which it differs. 



Colour (except for elytral markings) identical. Head and 

 prothorax more coarsely and less closely punctate. Elytra more 

 coarsely and continently punctate, a little more shiny : front spot 

 reddish, larger, elongate, covering the whole shoulder from 

 margin to stria 5 (and including the epipleura), produced back- 

 wards along the two outer intervals to very nearly half the length 

 of the elytra; two minute reddish 'hind spots, one placed on 

 interval 4, as in some examples of C. jucundus, the other a little 

 further back on interval 6.
