cous at apex. Head alutaceous, and very finely pubescent with 

 a few erect hairs, one-third longer than broad, about one-third 

 narrower than anterior pronotal lobe, a little widened from 

 anterior angle of eyes to apex of antenniferous tubercles, an- 

 tennse a little shorter than the body, first joint passing apex 

 of head bj'^ more than half its length, rostrum reaching middle 

 coxae. Pronotum slightly longer than broad, anterior lobe twice 

 the length of posterior lobe, impunctate (except a transverse 

 row of punctures on the collar) , posterior lobe sparsely punctate. 

 Scutellum rather coarsely punctate, more finely so between the 

 anterior branches of the Y-shaped impunctate elevation. Co- 

 rium rather coarsely and thickly punctate in the exocorium and 

 exterior apical part of mesocorium, a fasciate marking between 

 costal and apical margins somewhat before apical angle spar- 

 ingly punctate, and oblong spot near inner apical angle im- 

 punctate. Pectus finely but distinctly punctate. Abdomen 

 beneath with a dense but extremely short dustlike pubescence 

 and a long and very fine exserted hair near the posterior angles 

 of the last three segments. Fore femora beneath with a row 

 of spines and with one spine out of the line of the others; 

 fore tibise of male beneath with a row of short acute teeth. 



Length, male, 8 millimeters. 



Mindanao, Davao. 



Much larger, more elongate, and paler than the preceding 

 species, with longer head, much longer anterior pronotal lobe, 

 more spinous front femora, and toothed front tibise in the male. 



Pamerana subgenerica sp. nov. 



Black, pronotum and scutellum dark castaneous, posterior 

 pronotal lobe and elytra dark testaceous, with fuscous punc- 

 tation, corium with a brown costal spot behind the middle, 

 venter castaneous; antennae, rostrum, and legs testaceous, last 

 antennal joint (except a whitish testaceous subbasal annulation 

 reaching the middle) , a ring a little before apex of hind femora, 

 and apex of tarsi fuscous ; coxae black or piceous ; head, pronotum, 

 and scutellum sparsely erectly pilose, venter with a moderately 

 dense, and not very short, pallid sericeous pubescence. Head 

 somewhat longer than broad, but little narrower than anterior 

 pronotal lobe, not widened from anterior angle of eyes to apex 

 of antenniferous tubercles, the exterior margins of the latter 

 being subparallel, antennae conspicuously shorter than the body, 

 first joint passing apex of head by less than half its length, 

 rostrum reaching hind coxae, first joint two-thirds longer 

 than first antennal joint. Pronotum almost as long as broad,
