on abdomen black. First joint of tarsi double the length of second.

This species, on account of the transverse thorax and length 
of the tarsi, agrees better with the characters of AEtheomorpha 
than with those of Aspiclolopha. The extreme apical elytral spot 
is absent in some specimens. 
234. 2Etheomorpha tripnnctata, sp. n. 
Fulvous; terminal joints of antennae, breast and abdomen 
black ; elytra with three small black spots on each (2 . 1). 
Bather broadly subcylindrical ; head impunctate, with three 
deep foveae, placed triangularly ; eyes large ; clypeus moderately 
emarginate in front; antennae short, basal three joints fulvous, 
rest black, fourth and following joints strongly transverse. 
Thorax about two and a half times broader than long, lateral 
margins rather strongly rounded, posterior angles indistinct, 
median lobe very short; surface convex, impunctate, with an 
irregularly shaped fovea at each side near base. Scutellum 
pointed, broad. Elytra distinctly lobed at the sides behind the 
shoulders, convex, finely punctured in closely approximate rows ; 
apex nearly impunctate ; each elytron with a small humeral spot, 
another near the scutellum and a third on the middle close to the 
lateral margins. Abdomen strongly inflated, finely pubescent, 
breast also pubescent ; legs fulvous. First joint of tarsi twice as 
long as second. Pygidium uncovered. 
Length 41 mm.

235. jEtheomorpha assamensis, sp. n. 
Flavous ; labrum, antennse and scutellum black ; elytra yellow- 
ish, the margins narrowly and three spots, one below the other, 
on each elytron, black. 
Subcylindrical, nearly parallel-sided ; the head impunctate, with 
three small foveae, placed triangularly ; antennae with the basal 
three joints flavous, fourth and following joints transverse. 
Thorax nearly three times as broad as long, the sides nearly 
straight, the posterior angles indistinct, surface impunctate, 
with a short transverse depression near posterior angles. Scu- 
tellum broadly triangular, impunctate. Elytra with short lateral 
humeral lobes, very strongly punctured, the punctures form 
rather irregular but distinct row^s and get minute towards the 
apex, all the margins narrowly black ; of the spots, one is 
placed on the humeral callus, the other on the middle and the
