Long. 10 mm., lat. 3.6. 
Luzon, Laguna Province, Mount Maquiling (5878). 
I place this Philippine species in this Australian genus with 
some hesitation, though it agrees sufficiently with Pascoe’s short 
characterization. 51 
Body more than twice as long as broad; elytra with parallel 
sides, dull black; prothorax on anterior part, elytra on base and 
on apex, and a crossband in the second third yellowish gray; 
underside more whitish and less closely scaled, except apical half 
of femora and tibise, which are black; rostrum one-third longer 
than head, glossy black, tolerably densely punctate, scaled on 
base; antennse robust, the two basal joints of funicle hardly 
twice as long as thick, together as long as the five following 
combined, scape only one-third longer than thick; prothorax 
about as long as broad at base (3.5 : 3.7), moderately densely, 
coarsely punctate, with a large, flat, roundish impression on 
each side of disk ; scutellum elliptic, scaled ; elytra coarsely punc- 
tate-striate, the punctures oblong but hardly longer than the 
distance between them; hind femora linear, scarcely reaching 
apex of abdomen, the anterior unarmed ; hind tibise compressed, 
curved, and black; tarsi pure white scaled. 
Dyspeithes seriatopunctatus sp. nov. 
D. dentipedi Kirsch. longiore, squamulis minoribus ac plus 
adpressis parcius vestitus, rostro, basi parce squamosa excepta, 
nitido, parce punctulato; elytris in dimidia parte apicali sub- 
punctato-striatis, reliquis fere seriato-punctatis, punctis oblongis, 
spatiis minute remoteque granulosis, spatio secundo quartoque 
pone basin et post medium nigro-fasciculato-squamosis, macula 
humerali pallida minore quam in dentipedi. 
Long. 8 mm., lat. 4. 
Luzon, Mount Banahao. 
Very near to the preceding species but readily distinguished 
from it by the glossy rostrum, the bases of third and fifth inter- 
vals of elytra, which are not black setulose-squamose, and the 
striae which are hardly striate, nearly seriate-punctate in the 
anterior half and there rectangular-oblong, separated from each 
other by only a narrow bar; suture with a single row of gran- 
ules, intervals with adpressed scales and therefore flat, sparsely, 
minutely granulate, the second and fourth intervals at base 
and behind the middle with black setose callosities, the posterior 
two of which are more or less distinctly joined by an arcuate
