94. Lema spoliata, sp. n. 
Eulvous; labrura, antennae, underside and the legs partly black. 
Head not constricted, convex at base ; intraocular space tri- 
angularly raised, undivided, smooth ; labrum black ; antennae black, 
scarcely extended to middle of elytra, basal two joints fulvous 
beneath, fifth and following joints very elongate. Thorax 
subquadrate, lateral constriction deeply sulciform, continued to 
basal sulcus, anterior angles rather rounded : the surface entirely 
impunctate, reddish-fulvous. Scutellum black, rather broadly 
subquadrate. Elytra with a deep foveolate depression below the 
base, the punctures strong within the depression, fine on the rest 
of the surface and nearly obsolete behind the middle ; the disc 
crossed by a broad black longitudinal band, rather suddenly 
narrowed at the base, the sides fulvous, this portion gradually 
narrowed towards the apex. Beneath and the legs black, the 
anterior femora fulvous at the apex. 
Length 5 mm. 
Hab. Assam : Patkai Mts. (Doherty). Type in Brit. Mus. 
Distinguished by the colour of the antennae and their structure, 
also by the thoracic constriction which does not form a cavity but 
only a narrow sulcus. 
95. Lema ornaticollis, sp.n. 
Testaceous ; antennae and underside partly blackish. Thorax 
with a lateral stripe and two elongate spots on disc black. Elytra 
with broad sutural and marginal longitudinal bands greenish- 
black. Legs marked with blackish bands. 
Head impunctate, testaceous, strongly constricted posteriorly ; 
the neck with a black stripe at sides ; supraocular grooves very 
deep ; eyes deeply notched ; antennae black, long and slender, 
basal joint more or less pale, third and fourth equal, terminal 
joints elongate. Thorax not longer than broad, anterior angles 
rather blunt, basal sulcus deep, placed at some distance from basal 
margin ; disc with a few fine punctures anteriorly ; sides with a broad 
black stripe, two shorter stripes placed close together near middle 
anteriorly, sometimes extended downwards as far as the sulcus. 
Scutellum flavous or piceous. Elytra somewhat broadly flattened 
anteriorly with shallow depression below base at suture, strongly 
and closely punctate-striate, punctures finer at apex and there 
placed in striae with narrowly costate interstices ; sutural band 
slightly constricted at middie, extended to apex, lateral bands 
widened at middle, not extended to apex. Eeraora above with a 
black stripe ; outer edge of tibiae, tarsi and abdomen more or less 
black. 
Length 4 mm. 
Hob. Nilgiris (H. E. Anclrewes). 
Easily recognized by the markings of the head, thorax and elytra.
