ANNULOSA JAVANICA. 13 



sima ; maculisque duabus cereo-flavis, antica, subhumerali a quinta stria ad marginetn et postica 

 versus apicem a quinta stria ad nonam undulatis. Corpus subtus atronitidum. Pedes nigri. 



Subgenus LISSAUCHENIUS Nobis. Panagjeus Wiedemann ? Carabus Fab. 

 Lahrum transversum antice baud emarginatum. 

 Mandibulee acuta?, sinistra majore. 



Palpi maxillares elongati articulo quarto obconico apice truncate. 

 Palpi labiales articulo ultimo magno securiformi. 

 Mention dente shifts simplice. 



Subgenus Panageeo certe affine. Collum distinctum. Os acutum. Thorax canaliculars 



marginatus nitidus subquadratus utrinque rotundatus antice posticeque angulatus. Corpus 



alatum. Tarsi maris antici articulis tribus dilatatis. 



Obs. This genus differs from Panagceus in having the labrum not emarginate, the last joint 



of the maxillary palpi not triangular, the middle tooth of the mentum simple and the thorax 



neither suborbiculate or entire, and scarcely wider than the head. The antennae are mutilated 



iu the only specimen of the genus which Dr. Horsfield has brought to England.

 Caput laeve labro palpis antennisque nigris, his basi subpiceis. Thorax punctatus ovatus antice posticeque 

 truncatus lateribus marginatis. Elytra convexiuscula atronitida stria prima ad scutell urn brevissima. 

 Corpus subtus nigrum. Pedes nigri femoribus runs. 

 Obs. This insect comes very near to the description of Carahus posticus in Fabricius, the 

 only difference being that the latter insect has the " thorax Icevis" and the " pedes fulvi." The 

 Pana<rceus chalcocephalus of Wiedemann, which is also a Javanese insect, may possibly belong 

 to the same subgenus. 



Fam.3. HARPALTD.E. 



We know comparatively so little of the exotic species of this most numerous family, that it is 

 impossible for me at present to give its natural distribution with any degree of certainty. This 

 is, indeed, my only apology for the want of regularity, which the Entomologist cannot fail to 

 discover in the order of the following genera, which, moreover, I am quite unable to distinguish 

 from the subgenera. The inability to separate genera from subgenera, is the unavoidable con- 

 sequence of not knowing the natural distribution of the family.
