slightly narrowed near the outer margin ; hind 
margin slightly or strongly bi-sinuate, posterior of 
nearly the same width as the anterior, the margins 
distinctly bi-sinuate, the hind one of the posterior 
one narrowly edged with orange-red (pi. xxiii., figs. 42, 
43, 44) matoppoena. 
Elytra with a dorsal and a lateral patch, and two or three zigzagged 
transverse yellow or red bands. 
B3. Head and prothorax with a long silky pubescence. 
C. Third basal joint of antennge longer or as long as the fourth. 
D3. Elytra with a basal and a lateral longitudinal yellow 
bands prolonged respectively along the suture and the 
outer margin. 
a^. Antenna with the two basal joints black, three to 
eight fuscous, nine to eleven flavescent. 
b^. Elytra without an apical transverse patch. 
Whole upper side clothed with a dense silky grey 
pubescence ; on the elytra, the dorsal pale yellow 
band reaches from the base to one-third of the 
length, the outer marginal one runs to the same 
length and unites with the anterior narrow, bi- 
sinuate dentate band, the posterior is slightly slant- 
ing, not wider than the anterior and equally sinuate 
dentate, or with the sutural longitudinal band, 
coalescing, except for a small dot left of the back- 
ground with the anterior band (pi. xxiii., figs. 45, 46) hilaris. 
The same, but anterior band broader and interrupted 
near the outer margin, posterior one unisinuate and 
broader at the suture than at the outer margin 
(pi. xxiii., fig. 47) pertinax. 
b^. Elytra with an apical transverse patch. 
Basal sutural band as in the previous species, 
lateral band continued as far as the second trans- 
verse band, which is much narrowed and sub- 
hamate near the outer margin, third band extending 
across the supra-apical part (pi. xxiii., fig. 48) .. villosa. 
B^. Head and prothorax clothed with a short, appressed, silky grey 
pubescence. 
D^. Elytra with a basal dorsal and a lateral patch or spot, 
and two transverse uneven bands. 
a^. Antennge yellow with the three basal joints black. 
Elytra black or fuscous black and with a narrow red 
outer margin broadening considerably past the post- 
median band and apex and ascending the suture, a 
basal dorsal patch and an elongated lateral one, two 
narrow sharply bi-sinuate yellow transverse bands 
(pi. xxiii., fig. 50) tincta.
