Tribe Lebiini. 
Group Coptoderides. 
Genus Phloeocarabus. 
Phloeocarabus basalis, n. sp. 
Upper surface piceous; each elytron with a post - humeral 
large elongate oval plaga on interstices 3—6, not reaching base; 
apex, lateral border and inflexed margin testaceous; lateral margin 
of prothorax, antennae, tibiae and tarsi brownish ; femora pale 
testaceous. Depressed, winged. Head small (1.4 mm across eyes), 
glabrous, hardly strangulate behind eyes; front depressed, finely 
punctate, a juxta-ocular carina on each side; eyes convex, PrO- 
minent. Prothorax transverse (1.25 xX2 mm), glabrous, widest 
before middle, strongly roundly narrowed to apex without marked 
anterior angles, very lightly narrowed to base (1.3 mm), finely 
punctate; dise convex, transversely striolate; lateral margins 
wide, flat, widest at base, gradually decreasing in width anteriorly, 
hecoming narrow at apex; lateral border reaching neck; base a 
little roundly produced in middle; basal angles sharp, rect- 
angular; median line well marked; posterior marginal seta on 
edge just before basal angle. Elytra much wider than prothorax;; 
humeral angles rounded; apex truncate; striae narrow, distinct, 
crenulate ; interstices lightly convex, glabrous, shagreened and 
minutely punctate, 1% striolate at base, 3" 3-punctate, — anterior 
puncture about basal third, 2 posterior punctures close together, 
posterior one at extremity of interstice —, 9% wide, depressed, 
with a series of large punctures.

Hab.: New Pommerania (N. Britain), Gazelle Peninsula. 
Very closely allied to Ph. (Trigonothops) nigricollis, Macl., from 
Australia, of which it is perhaps only a geographical race; but 
differing by having the base of elytra wholly margined with black, 
the discal testaceous plaga not reaching the base as it does in 
Ph. nigrieollis. The genus Phloeocarabus has the tarsi with the 
4" joint entire and the ungues serrate. 
Genus Asonochila. 
Agonochila lineella, n. sp. 
Piceous black; elytra with longitudinal yellow stripes on 
basal half and maculae on posterior half; under surface piceous; 
legs brown. Head large (1.35 mm across eyes), punctate, finely 
rugulose near eyes; mentum with sharp triangular median tooth. 
Prothorax short, transverse (0.8 X 1.75 mm), widest before
