TWO NEW SPECIES OF CICINDELA. 101 



cante solummodo submicante discoidali ornatis, spina 

 suturali magis retracta et longiore totis densius, in- 

 distinctiusque punctatis; signatura flavescente valde re- 

 ducta; macula basali media perparva, vix percipienda, 

 linea tenui humerali marginal! brevi, alteraque angusta 

 apicali a spina usque ad angulum apicalem extrorsum 

 ducta. Long 8J mm. 



One female from North Borneo. The labrum is yel- 

 low without any distinct tooth, clypeus and frons bald 

 and finely rugulose, the eyes indistinctly striolated. The 

 pronotum shows a little before the hind angles a laterally 

 prominent tooth, which stands about the same height at 

 the ordinary basal transversal impression; about in the 

 middle between this tooth and the basal margin runs an 

 indistinct elevation (accompanied by a sulcus behind it). 

 In Q. denUcollis this elevation is better developed and 

 takes its origin just *from the basal tooth (the whole 

 middle pronotum is also much broader transverse, etc.) 

 The colouration of the upper side of C. spinicoUis is a 

 little darker and more dusky brownish brassy than in C. 

 denticoUis; the puncture of the elytra is finer and less 

 distinctly developed. The cheeks are finely lineated and 

 have at their anterior half- some irregular punctiform 

 impressions. The episterna of the prothorax are only 

 at their inner part (sparingly those of the meso and 

 metathorax everywhere moderately densely pilose; the 

 lateral part of the metasternum, posterior coxae and 

 abdomen are densely pilose. The posterior end of the 

 yellow humeral slope and the anterior end of the apical 

 one are indistinct. The four basal articulations of the 

 feeler coppery brassy, femora greenish brassy with the 

 extreme base and a longer part of the apex yellow. Tro- 

 chanters yellow. My only specimen does not show any 



* The same for C. Wallacei Bat., where the antebasal elevation 

 is about as indistinctly developed as in the new species, but the 

 pronotum of Bates, species is broader an anteriorly not narrowed, the 

 elytra are much longer and more parallel etc., C. Wallacei Bates 

 occurs in Celebes.
