The individual I have described of this fine species is I be- 

 lieve a male. 



Leucopholis pollens (n. sp.) : Picea, minus nitida, supra squamu- 

 lis parvis, pallide griseis vestita; subtus pallide griseo-squamosa ; tibiis 

 anterioribus bidentatis ; mesosterni processu valido , elongato. — Long. 

 36 mill. 



Borneo. 



Head rather short , rather closely and coarsely punctured and 

 bearing narrow pale grey scales, clypeus slightly emarginate in the 

 middle. Thorax at the sides densely and rather coarsely punctured, 

 along the middle more sparingly and finely, the punctures bearing 

 pale grey, almost white scales, the hind angles acute. Elytra closely 

 but not very distinctly punctured and rather densely clothed with pale 

 grey scales. Pygidium rather closely punctured and clothed with 

 pale scales. Undersurface clothed very densely at the sides with fine 

 scales which are nearly white; metasternum clothed except on the 

 middle with fine pale scales and hairs , on the middle with scanty 

 coarse scales ; hind coxae densely squamose ; abdominal segments 

 clothed not very closely with coarse scales, at the sides with denser 

 finer scales. Mesosternum with a stout elongate process. Front 

 tibiae short and rather stout, bidentate. Hind tibiae dilated at the 

 extremity and with the spurs stout. 



This species is .very closely allied to L. armata, but the scales 

 are much paler and the elytra in the neighbourhood of the suture 

 are more densely punctured ; the structural differences of the legs 

 indicated by my description depend probably on the sex of the indi- 

 vidual described, which I suspect to be a female. 



Leucopholis diffinis (n. sp.): Picea, elytris rufescentibus , supra 

 fortiter punctata, subopaca et squamis albidis adspersa, subtus lateribus 

 dense albido-squamosis ; tibiis anterioribus tridentatis, mesosterno processu 

 brevi. — Long. 30 mill. 



Penang (Wallace!), Malacca (Castelnau !). 



Head coarsely punctured, clypeus broad, not emarginate, rather 

 strongly reflexed in front. Antennae dark red, the club short. Apical 

 joint of maxillary palpi rather short and stout, its inner edge a little 

 sinuate. Mentum with a large quadrate impression. Thorax about
