404 Rev. H. S. Gorham's descriptions of 



Tenerus javanus, n. sp. 



Flavo-testaceus, nitidus, pubescens, capite (vertice 

 summo excepto), antennis (articulo basali et ultimo ex- 

 ceptis), elytrorum apice tibiis tarsisque nigris. 



Long. 21—3 lin. 



This species must be very nearly allied to praustus, 

 Spin., from wliicli it differs in having the head black with 

 crown only yellow ; when retracted into the thorax this 

 is not visible ; the thorax is wholly yellow (but it is 

 noticeable that the two spots mentioned in the description 

 of Spin, are not shown in the figure). The antenna are 

 nearly black, the basal joint in one of two examples being 

 yellow in the other, fuscous above, and the terminal joint 

 dirty yellow. The tibise and tarsi black, the claws only 

 being testaceous. The thorax and elytra are even, the 

 former with scattered distinct punctures. 



Hah. — Java (Raf&ay). Two specimens received while 

 this paper was being written. 



Tenerus Jlavicollis, n. sp. 



Cyaneus, prothorace (margine antice excepto) flavo, 

 elytris confertim subtiliter punctatis unicostatis, costa post 

 medium haud distincta, antennis nigris. 



Long. 5|- lin. 



Head thickly and distinctly punctured, deep blue mouth, 

 and palpi testaceous. Thorax yellow, except in front of 

 the anterior impressed transverse line, where it is blue- 

 black, deeply but less thickly punctured. Elytra deep 

 steel-blue, very thickly and finely punctured, subopaque, 

 the suture a little raised ; one raised line distinct at the 

 base, but barely to be traced beyond the middle. Breast, 

 abdomen and legs blue; antennge black, opaque.

 the colour of the body beneath and legs.
