but it will probably be necessary to place the Burmali insect in 

 a new genus. S. piceicollis has quite the appearance of a species 

 of Sphaeroderma but is distinguished from that and several allied 

 genera by the incrassate terminal joints of the antennae and 

 the punctate-striate elytra ; also by the structure of the meso- 

 sternum, which is as long as tlie metasternum ; the elytra are 

 rather pointed at the apex and their epipleura^ are broad and 

 slightly concave.

Bhamò , Teinzò in Burmah. Thagatà in Tenasserim , many 

 specimens. 



91. H^x)lia,sis Feae, n. sp. 



Ovate, pale flavous; the terminal joints of the antennae black; 

 thorax very transverse ; elytra not visiljly or scarcely punctured. 



Length 1-1 Yg ^i^^^. 



Head impunctate ; the frontal elevations broad, nearly conti- 

 guous, the carina strongly raised, convex ; antennae more than 

 half the length of the body, black, the lower three joints iiavous, 

 the third and following joints nearly equal; thorax three times 

 broader than long, the sides distinctly rounded , narrowly flat- 

 tened, the anterior angles obliquely thickened, surface impunc- 

 tate ; elytra slightly widened at the middle, impunctate or 

 extremely finely punctured. 



Bhamò, June, July, September, 1885-86. 



Very closely allied to H. parvida Jac. from Sumatra but I 

 think distinct ; the thorax is still more transversely-shaped and the 

 sides more strongly rounded ; the elytra which in //. parvula are 

 very finely punctured are almost impunctate in the present species.
