PHYTOPHAGOUS COLEOPTERA FROM BURMAH 231 



than those from Java in my collection and some of the former 

 have the underside black, but this colour does not seem to be 

 constant ; I have not seen a typical specimen of P. imicolor 

 but it is probable that I refer tiie Java and the Burmah insects 

 rightly to Olivier's species. All of them have a lateral costa 

 running downwards from the shoulder to below the middle , 

 of which Olivier says nothing ; the thorax is one half broader 

 than long and transversely depressed on the disc. Java specimens 

 are 3 V2 ^^"^^^ in length , those from Burmah vary between 

 2 74"^ V2 lines, but differences of importance between the two 

 forms I am not able to find.

 A specimen from Bhamò. , 



161. Syoplia javanensis, Jac. 



A single example from Kawkareet in Tenasserim, much large 

 in size than the Java type.
