Agrilus malinaoensis sp. nov. 
Female . — Form short and robust, color dark coppery, with 
a slight purplish tinge; each elytron with an indistinct, white, 
pubescent spot along suture near apex. 
Antennae piceous, not quite reaching to middle of pronotum, 
serrate from the fourth joint. Head with the front rather 
narrow, moderately convex, the sides strongly narrowed from 
clypeus to occiput; a feeble impression extending from occiput 
to near clypeus; surface* strongly rugose, intervals very finely 
granulate, sparsely and rather coarsely punctate, rather densely 
clothed behind the clypeus with very short white hairs. Cly- 
peus elevated, wider than long, with the front margin broadly 
and rather deeply, arcuately emarginate. Pronotum a little 
more than one-half as wide as long, base and apex about equal 
in width; sides feebly arcuate; lateral margin nearly straight; 
hind angles rectangular, with a sharply defined, strongly sinuate 
carina, the carina extending to lateral margin near apical 
angles; disk convex, with three depressions, a broadly oval one 
in front of scutellum and a less distinct basal one on each side 
along inner side of lateral carina; surface rather finely, trans- 
versely strigose, the intervals sparsely and finely punctate, with 
a few short, semierect, inconspicuous hairs. Scutellum not 
very wide, strongly, transversely carinate. Elytra with a 
slight posthumeral sinuation, behind which there is a slight 
dilatation, then strongly, obliquely narrowed to apices, which are 
conjointly, obtusely rounded and very finely serrulate, sides of 
abdomen exposed above; disk slightly flattened, narrowly con- 
cave along suture at apical third, without distinct costae, sutural 
margin elevated from apical third, humeral carinae very short, 
slightly sinuate posteriorly; basal depressions moderately deep; 
surface opaque, finely and densely, imbricately granulate, sparse- 
ly clothed with short, inconspicuous, recumbent hairs, each ely- 
tron with an indistinct, white pubescent spot along the suture 
near apex. Body beneath aeneous, more shining than above; 
prosternum coarsely, densely scabrous and sparsely pubescent; 
prosternal lobe wide, broadly subtruncate in front; intercoxal 
process very abruptly expanded behind! the coxae, the apex 
wide and deeply biemarginate ; propleura finely punctate, 
slightly strigose, without pubescence; metasternum coarsely 
punctate-strigose, with a smooth elongate space at middle. 
Abdomen densely, transversely strigose, with fine punctures 
along the edge of the strigae, and rather densely clothed with
