268 Treubia Vol. Ill, 3—4. 



funicle with joint 1 longer and much broader than 2, joints 3 — 6 slightly 

 transverse and gradually widening outwardly. Prothorax broader than 

 long (7:5), strongly rounded at the sides, broadest slightly in front of 

 the middle; the dorsum finely aciculate, with separated shallow punctures 

 each bearing a recumbent seta, and with thin pubescence between the 

 setae; the dorsal outline very feebly convex. Elytra ovate, jointly sinuate 

 at the base and there a little broader than the base of the prothorax, the 

 shoulders prominent but very obtusely rounded, the apices slightly dehiscent; 

 the striae with distinct separated punctures, the intervals broad and almost 

 flat, with very thin short pubescence and each with two irregular rows of 

 flattened recumbent setae. Legs with the femora strongly clavate and 

 each bearing a very long stout tooth (of about the same size on all the 

 legs), scarcely punctate and with thin pubescence; the tibiae narrow, 

 cylindrical and strongly curved at the base, widened and subcompressed 

 in the apical half; the tarsi with joint 2 transverse, much shorter than 

 3. Sternum distinctly punctate on the pro- and mesosternum; the meta- 

 sternum almost impunctate, but with a sinuate punctate furrow near the 

 front margin and deep transverse stria near the hind margin in front of 

 each coxa. 



Java: Buitenzorg, v. 1922. 



Described from eight specimens. 



Mr. Kalshoven states that this insect is a leaf and twig miner on 

 Calophylliim inophylliim. 



All the previously recorded species of this genus are African, but the 

 present insect is certainly a true Endaeiis.
