it next to Euthyrhinus, with which OydostetJius appears to have 

 more affinity. The ocular lobes leave the eyes nearly free in 

 repose. 



Cydostethus solutus. (PI. I. fig. 11.) C. ovalis, niger, supra 

 squamis concoloribus albisque signatus tectus ; rostro castaneo, ca- 

 pite duplo longiore, tenuiter, apice magis punctulato ; antennis sub- 

 piceis ; funiculo articulis duobus basalibus longioribus, secundo quam 

 primo longiore ; clava magna elongato-obovata ; prothorace subtiliter 

 granulato, in medio linea alba ornato j elytris striato-punctatis, prope 

 suturam, prsecipue dimidio basali, fortiter granulatis, margine basali, 

 macula obliqua ante medium et postice linea maculari, aliquando ma- 

 culis duabus, albis ornatis ; corpore infra densissime albo-squamuloso ; 

 pedibus sparse squamosis, tarsis albo-pilosis. Long. 5 lin. 



Hab. Ceram. 



Cydostethus lineolatus. C. ovalis, fuscus, squamis concoloribus, 

 griseis irroratus, griseoque signatus tectus ; rostro castaneo, punctis 

 elongatis majusculis minus adsperso ; antennis subpiceis, funiculo ar- 

 ticulis duobus basalibus brevioribus ; prothorace lineis tribus ornato, 

 minus subtiliter granulato ; elytris striato-punctatis, striis griseis, di- 

 midio basali versus suturam fortiter granulato, margine basali, macu- 

 lisque (vel lineis) duabus griseis ornatis ; corpore infra femoribusque 

 basi densissime albo-squamulosis ; tarsis albo-pilosis. Long. 5 lin. 



Hab. Amboyna; Tondano. 



The white markings in both these species are variable. 



SYEOTELrs. 



(Cryptorhynchinse.) 



Elytra ad latera hand carinata. Mesosternum fornicatum. Femora 

 basi attenuata, infra dente parvo armata. Ccetera ut in Rhynchode. 



Cyamobolus Falleni, Boh., is the type of this genus, which 

 Lacordaire has referred to Rhynchodes, Wh., chiefly on account 

 of the pointed apex of the elytra. The characters given above do 

 not, however, in my opinion, permit their association. 



Cechania. 



( Cryptorhynchinse. ) 



Rostrum rectum, eylindricum; seroles prsemedianae, obliquae. 

 Scapus brevis, oculum attingens ; funiculus elongatus, articulis 

 ultimis transversis ; clava majuscula, distincta. Oculi minus-
