Ceylon, Tenasserim, and Borneo. The larva has recently been 

 discovered* and has been described and figured by Mr. G. Gr. Grahan 

 (Trans. Ent. Soc. Loud. 1908, p. 275, pi. vi, fig. 1). It is nearly 

 4| inches long, parallel-sided, but uneven in outline, as the 

 segments are narrowed in front and behind ; the head is large

and! the first abdominal segment is short ; the last segment 

 is narrower than the preceding and terminates in two short, 

 bent processes ; the legs are distinct, but not long. The 

 general appearance is that of a very large Pyrochroa larva, and 

 this family ought perhaps to be placed near the Pyrochroid^. 



* The perfect insect has not been bred from the larva, but it is practically 

 certain that the latter must be referred to the Tricte.votomidj:.
