CHRYSOMELIDjE. 
362 
Group CALL! SIN I. 
Head oblong, partly exserted ; antennae with terminal joints 
more or less strongly dilated or moniliform'. Thorax transverse, 
subquadrate, of equal width, sides angulated at the middle. Elytra 
short, oblong, basal portion rather strongly raised. Tibiae of the 
intermediate and posterior legs emargiuate at apex ; claws appen- 
diculate. 
Principally distinguished by the structure of the antennae and 
tibiae, the angulate sides of thorax and equal width of latter. 
Key to the Genera of Callisini. 
a, Antennae with terminal joints broadly dilated ; 
femora toothed beneath Callisina, p. 362. 
b. Antennae without dilated terminal j oints, monili- 
form ; femora not toothed beneath Edistus, p. 365.

Type, C. fasciata , Balv, from Malacca. 
Range. India ; Cambodia ; Malayan Subregion. 
Oblong, convex. Head exserted; eyes prominent, sinuate below; 
apical joints of antennae strongly dilated and flattened, terminal 
three as broad as long. Thorax transverse, convex, margined at 
the sides. Scutellum subtrigonal, apex rounded. Elytra oblong, 
wider than the thorax. Legs robust ; femora incrassate with acute 
tooth beneath ; first joint of tarsi shorter than the following two 
united ; claws appendiculate. 
This genus is not closely allied to any other and certainly not 
to Corynodes as Baly states, to which it has only a superficial 
resemblance in shape ; the head is without ocular sulci and the 
thoracic episternum is concave instead of convex. 
641. Callisina brunnea, sp. m 
Dark brown; antennae (basal joints excepted) and legs black. 
Head rather strongly and closely punctured, with central groove 
on the vertex ; clvpeus punctured at base, sides with a deeply 
punctured short groove ; space above eyes sulcate, longitudinally 
strigose ; antennae extending to middle of elytra, basal three 
joints fulvous, third and fourth equal, terminal joints elongate, 
very moderately thickened. Thorax subquadrate, transverse, not 
narrowed anteriorly, sides feebly rounded, strongly angulate at 
the middle, a deep medially interrupted sulcus near anterior 
margin, disc rather strongly but unevenly punctured. Elytra 
wider at base than the thorax, oblong, subcylindrical, transversely
