Hab. Java (Fruhstorfer), 



This species seems most elosely allied to L. constricta Baly 

 from Sumatra, btit diffevs in the following details : — the 

 antennae have the second Joint very short. not nearly equal 

 to the third, the thorax is impunctate as well as the elytral 

 intersti.ces and the posterior femora are shorter (this however is 

 probably sexual). L. striato-puncfata Lac. is a larger insect and 

 has differently coloured legs.
