sparsely pubescent; intercoxal process nearly parallel to behind 
coxae, then abruptly narrowed to apex, which is acute; tarsi 
and claws black ; tarsal lamellae brownish. 
Length, 6.1 millimeters; width, 2.25. 
Described from a single specimen from Davao, Mindanao 
(C. F. Baker). 
Neosambus ornatus sp. nov. 
Elongate, subparallel, moderately convex, uniformly piceous, 
with a feeble greenish tinge on elytra; head with the front 
cupreous; elytra ornamented with transverse pubescent bands. 
Head with the front wide, convex, not gibbose on vertex, 
with a vague median longitudinal groove, extending from oc- 
ciput to the clypeal suture, which is transversely truncate ; sur- 
face very sparsely, coarsely punctate, and sparsely pubescent; 
epistoma transverse, anterior margin broadly, but not deeply, 
arcuately emarginate, the angles extending beneath the antennal 
cavities. Pronotum three-fourths wider than long, widest at 
about the middle, base and apex about equal in width; sides 
feebly crenulate and evenly, arcuately rounded ; anterior margin 
moderately emarginate, with a broadly rounded lobe at middle, 
the angles acute; base bisinuate, with a broadly rounded lobe in 
front of scutellum, the angles obtusely rounded; disk rather 
evenly convex, with a broad, inconspicuous depression poste- 
riorly along the lateral margin ; surface sparsely, coarsely punc- 
tate and feebly strigose, sparsely clothed with long, white and 
brown, recumbent pubescence. Scutellum transversely trian- 
gular; surface smooth. Elytra as wide as pronotum at base, 
strongly convex ; humeral angles strongly angulate ; sides sinuate 
at posterior coxae, broadly expanded behind middle, then arcuately 
narrowed to tips, which are separately, broadly rounded ; surface 
strongly, transversely rugose and rather densely punctate, the 
punctures and rugae becoming finer toward apex, sparsely clothed 
with black and silvery white pubescence, the white pubescence 
forming designs on each elytron as follows: A broad oblique 
band extending from humerus to suture at basal fourth, a wide 
transverse band just behind the middle, and a narrower trans- 
verse band near apex. Abdomen rather convex, sparsely punc- 
tate and rather densely clothed with long white pubescence ; last 
segment feebly emarginate at apex; prosternum coarsely sca- 
brous and sparsely pubescent; intercoxal process parallel-sided 
to behind coxae, then abruptly narrowed to apex, which is acute ; 
tarsi and claws black; tarsal lamellae yellowish.
