HALTIOINjE. 



Length, 4 J nun. 



South India: Mahe, Malabar coast. Trayancore (G. iS. 

 Imray). 



Type in the British Museum. Described from three examples. 



08. Nonarthra birmanica, Jacoby. 



Enneamera birmanica, Jac, Aim. Mus. Civ. Genova, xxxii, 189iJ, 

 p. 935. 



Colour above violaceous- blue ; antennae black with tlie three 

 basal segments obscure piceous ; labrum, underside and legs, black. 



Head impunctate ; antennae very short, the fourth and the 

 following segments broadly dilated and depressed. Prothorax 

 twice as broad as long, the sides perfectly straight, strongly- 

 narrowed in front, the surface not visibly punctate. Elytra 

 widened towards the middle, very closely and finely punctate, but 

 more strongly so than in N. dakshina. Closely allied to JS. swna- 

 trensis, Har., N. cyanea*, Baly and A 7 , nigricejjs, YVeise, but 

 probably distinct from any of these ; it differs from iV. sumatrensis 

 in the almost entirely black antenna?, the violaceous-blue colour of 

 the upper side and the very close punctuation of the elytra, while 

 from the other species it is distinguished by t he colour of the legs 

 and underside. 



Length, 5 mm. 



Burma : Palon, iSeptember (L. Fea ). 



Type in the Genoa Museum. I have not seen the type of this 

 species. 



69. Nonarthra limbatipeimis, Jacoby. 



Enneamera limbafipennis. .lac, Ami. Mus. Civ. Geneva, xxxii, 1892, 

 p. 935. 



Body broadly rounded. Colour testaceous ; head, antennae 

 (except the three basal segments and part of the fourth segment, 

 which are fulvous) and apex of posterior femora, black ; elytra 

 piceons, with lateral and apical margins broadly luhous. 



Head very minutely punctate, depressed between the eyes; 

 antennas very short, with the apical six segments broadly flattened 

 and dilated. Prothorax transverse, widened at the middle t ; its 

 sides straight, strongly narrowed in front; surface impressed with 

 very minute punctures. Elytra with punctuation like that of the 

 prothorax. 



Length, 5 mm. 



Burma: Palon, September (L. Fea). 



Type in the Genoa Museum. I have not seen this species. 



* Jacoby wrote ccerulea, Baly."' but, probably intended to write " cycuiea," 

 since Baly does not appear ever to have published any species of this genus 

 under the name ctsruoea. 



t Evidently Jacoby means that the pronotuin is longest along the middle 

 1 ongitudinal line.
