above the eyes *. The Indian species at present placed in this 
genus seem to differ in the non-angulate sides of the thorax, but 
agree in all other respects with Lefevre’s description. The group 
is represented in India by a single genus only. 
Genus PAGRIA. 
Pagria, Lefev. Bull. Soc. Ent. France, 1884, p. lxvii; id. Cat. 
Eumolp. 1885, p. 62, 
Type, P. suturalis , Lefev., from Africa. 
Range. Africa ; India ; Sumatra ; Java. 
Characters those of the group. 
630. Pagria flavo-pustulata, Baly (Nodostoma), Trans. Ent. Soe. 
1874, p. 169. 
Black ; antennae flavous, terminal joints darker ; labrum and 
legs flavous. Elytra nearly black, a small spot at base within 
shoulders flavous. 
Length 2 mm. 
Hob. India: Belgaum ; Japan; Sumatra {Coll. Jacoby). 
This species seems to differ from P. signata , Motsch. in colora- 
tion only. It is quite possible that P. sumatrensis, Lefev., and 
P. ceneicollis , Lefev., both from Sumatra, are varieties of the present 
species, which in turn may be another variety of P. signata, but I 
have not seen at present any intermediate forms. 
631. Pagria signata, Motsch. (Metachroma) Etud. Ent. 1858, p. 110. 
Nodostoma consimile, Baly, Trans. Ent. Soc. 1874, p. 168.

« Testaceous ; beneath more or less fuscous ; base of head,
