disperses between the eyes. Frons with a fine medial groove 

 and an elongated spot not continued on the vertex. Thorax 

 smooth and shiny. A narrow band on the fore margin continued 

 laterally to the hind margin. A lateral medial band joins the 

 side marginal stripe. From the disk of" the thorax arising from 

 the lateral band, a longitudinal stripe to the posterior margin, 

 forming the letter T, Elytra very finely wrinkled like leather 

 with very pronounced longitudinal puncture, rows. Each elytron 

 with four longitudinal stripes, which run together at the basal 

 margin and in the apical triangle. A narrow subsutural stripe 

 in the apical half of each elytron not quite reaching the apex. 

 The broadest stripes are the one located between the second 

 and third rows of punctures and the lateral marginal stripe, 

 both of which are also broader toward the base and toward 

 the apical triangle. Underside with a spot on the meso- and 

 the metasternum. First abdominal segment with a large spot 

 on either side. Each femur with a scale spot in the middle 

 and a ringlike spot near the apex. 



Length, 11.5 millimeters (without rostrum) ; width, 5.5. 



Luzon, Benguet, Mount Santo Tomas (W. Schultze). Type 

 in my collection. 



This species belongs to Heller's group V.^ 



Eupachyrrhynchus hierog'lyphicus sp. nov. Plate I, fig. 4. 



Female. — Black, each elytron with four greenish or bluish 

 white longitudinal stripes. Rostrum comparatively broad, 

 strongly and confusedly punctured at the apex. A prominent 

 quadratic depression in the basal half, the lateral edges of which 

 are strongly keeled. Inside of the depression a fine longitudinal 

 groove, extending to the frons. Thorax with a narrow trans- 

 verse spot laterad of the middle, another larger one at the base, 

 and a still larger spot on the lateral margin. Elytra with ir- 

 regular longitudinal rows of punctures. Each elytron with four 

 stripes. The dorsal pair at the base interrupted, forming two 

 spots, afterward combined and at the disk separated again, 

 forming a peculiar loop posterior of which the stripes approach 

 each other and separate again, forming a second loop at the 

 hind slope. Another, rather wavy lateral stripe and another, 

 the broadest stripe, near the outer margin. The two latter run 

 together at the base, and all four stripes are confluent in the 

 apical triangle. The striped areas are very distinctly depressed. 

 Suture and costal margin apically with a few fine hairs. Apical
