but differs in the narrower form and in the intermediate anal 
lobe being nearly equal in length to the lateral ones. 
42. Aulacophora costatipennis. Ovata, postice ampliata, convexa, 
rufo-fulva, nitida; tliorace sat profunde transversim sulcato, lateribus 
angulatis; elytris infra basin leviter transversim depressis, nigris, 
elevato-vittatis, interspatiis punctatis. Long. 3§ lin. 
Fcem. Abdominis segmento anali apice obtuso. 
Sab. ? A single specimen, my collection. 
Antennae slender, filiform. Thorax nearly twice as broad as 
long ; sides straight and diverging from the base to beyond the 
middle, thence obliquely converging towards the apex ; disk mi- 
nutely punctured on either side, deeply transversely sulcate. 
Elytra broadly ovate, dilated posteriorly, convex, slightly depressed 
transversely below the basilar space ; each elytron with nine 
distinctly elevated longitudinal costae, their interspaces minutely 
punctate. 
Nearly allied to A. JBatesi , Jac., and A. ancliora, Redt. ; its 
elytra nitidous, entirely black, and distinctly depressed below the 
basilar space. 
Genus Pseudocophoea, Jacoby. 
Pseudocophora brunnea. Ovata, postice ampliata, valde convexa, 
pallide fulvo-picea, nitida, pectore, abdomine pedibusque posterioribus 
quatuor nigris; thorace leviter transversim sulcato, lateribus angulatis; 
elytris distincte punctatis. Long. 3 lin. 
Sab. Celebes {Wallace). 
Antennae filiform. Thorax rather more than one half broader 
than long ; sides distinctly produced and angulate before the 
middle ; disk impressed transversely with a shallow sulcatiou. 
Elytra broadly oblong-ovate, dilated posteriorly, convex, distinctly 
punctured, the puncturing nearly obsolete on the hinder disk. 
In the typical species of the genus, as well as in the present 
one, the prosternum is distinct and nearly equal in height to the 
coxae ; this character is not mentioned by Mr. Jacoby. 
Genus Paridea. 
Corpus ovatum, postice ampliation. Caput exsertum; oculis rotundatis, 
integris ; antennis filiformibus. Thorax transverso-quadratus, dorso 
transversim sulcatus. Elytrorum epipleura a basi ad medium exteusa. 
Pedes simplices; tibiis apice spina brevi armatis ; t arsis posticis articulo
