tlie anterior angles nearly quadrate. In other respects 

 (form of the body etc.) more nearly allied to lalicoills, Wasm. 

 (No. 223, p. 15).

3. Termitoplsthes wasmanni, Schmidt. (PI. VI. fig. 3.) 



Compared with my co-types of ivasmanni from Schmidt 

 and with my type of nohilis, Wasm. Agrees perfectly with 

 ivasmanni. This species is easily distinguished by the dense 

 and coarse puncturing of the prothorax and its distinctly 

 rounded sides. 



1 $ J Cliota Nagpur, and a ^ (?) from Tanakpur. 



I give a photograph of the ? specimen, as I did not figure 

 the species in my paper No. 223. 



4. Termitopisthes nobilis, Wasm. (No. 223, p. 14, and 

 Taf. ii. fig. 11). 



Agrees with my type.

5. Termitopisthes laticoUis, Wasm. (No. 223, p. 15, 

 and Taf. i. figs. 9 & 10). 



Agrees with my type. 



Easily recognized by the prothorax being broader than the 

 elytra.

6. Termitopisthes parallelus^ Wasm.^ sp. n. 

 (Pi. VI. fig. 4.) 



Easily distinguished by the broad, nearly parallel shape, 

 resembling Chcetopisthes brunneus, Wasm."^^ in this respect ; 

 the subquadrate, coaisely but sparsely punctured prothorax ; 

 the elytra nearly plain, except the second, highly elevated 

 costa, which is prolonged into a basal tooth ; the very long 

 and towards the base much enlarged and deepened middle 

 furrow of the prothorax ; and by the soft and dense white 

 pubescence of the elytra.
