in the Philippines, have probably immigrated to the latter islands 

 by way of Java or Borneo, where they are likely to be found. 



Insect collections from the high mountains in the interior of 

 Luzon, with their archaic mammalian fauna (showing Australian 

 affinities) brought to light by Whitehead, and from the almost 

 unknown, but probably no less interesting, mountain ranges in 

 the interior of Mindanao are great desiderata; but such col- 

 lections could be procured only by special expeditions involving 

 great cost.

 borders of pronotum, connexivum, and male genital segment 

 fuscous-black, corium dark castaneous, a vitta on each side of 

 vertex touching the eye, a similar vitta on each side of underside 

 of head, an oblong spot near middle of apical margin of corium, 

 posterior border of connexival areas and apical callus of orificia 

 luteous, membrane grayish ochraceous, the veins a little darker, 

 venter with longitudinal blackish mottlings and in the anterior 

 half with a blackish sublateral vitta in a line with the usual 

 dull black spots of the last three segments; antennse fuscous- 

 black, more than apical half of last joint luteous; rostrum 

 brownish ochraceous; legs fuscous, trochanters, extreme base of 

 femora, a ring on basal half of tibiae, and some mottlings to fore 

 tibise and to hind femora luteous; punctate, the punctures each 

 bearing a small, narrow yellowish scale, the punctation of the 

 head very fine and superficial. Head slightly longer than broad, 

 first joint of antennae as long as head, second about one-third 

 longer than first, bucculse with the truncate anterior margin 

 and the slightly rounded inferior margin forming a right angle, 

 rostrum reaching middle of metasternum, first joint not quite 

 reaching base of head, second as long as first, third one-third 

 shorter than second and equal to fourth. Pronotum moderately 

 declivous, not convex, without a distinct transverse impression, 

 across the rather narrowly rounded, scarcely prominent, humeral 

 angles, not quite two and a half times broader than at apex 

 and about one-third broader than the length of the lateral 

 margin, the apical angles produced forward in a triangular 

 tooth about as long as half the breadth of the eye, the lateral 

 margins almost straight, only behind the middle broadly and very
