SECOND YARKAND MISSION. 
indistinct; they bear no hairs, but under a good lens are seen to possess some extremely short 
setae ; and their sides are densely ciliate. The pygidium is of a whitish colour, that is to say> 
the surface is very pruinose ; it is finely punctured. 
The male has the flahellum of the antennae twice as long as the female, it being quite as 
long as joints 2 to 7 together ; the front tibiae do not show much difference in the sexes ; they 
are rather stout and distinctly tridentate. The ventral segments in the male are not impres- 
sed along the middle, hut are a little flattened, and almost free from punctuation. 
The species is remarkable on account of the divided front of the head ; a trans-Caucasian 
species which I received some time ago from M. Deyrolle as It. porosus agiees with it in 
this respect, hut has the ventral segments densely pubescent, while in R. bilobus these same 
parts are hare. The species is variable in colour and size. 
Yangihissar, April 1874. About twenty individuals, mostly much injured, and probably 
picked up dead. Also Kogyar, 31st May to 2nd June.

Jhelam Valley, July 1873. Two specimens. 
Anomala (Munich Cat.). 
29. — Anomala striolata, Blanchard. 
A single individual of an Anomala found at Murree differs from the description of 
Blanchard’s A. striolata only by some details of colour, the most important of which is that the 
under-surface and legs are purple. Specimens in my own collection, labelled India, are prob- 
ably conspecifie with the Murree individual, though they do not quite agree in all details- 
In a genus like Anomala, where many species are so extremely variable in colour, it is not 
advisable to make new specific names on the evidence of such slight differences.

Ovata, minus convexa , Icetissime viridis, nitidissima, elytris subopacis, antennis nigris ;

Long. 12| mm., lat. 6^ mm. 
Of a very beautiful, brilliant, golden-green colour, with the elytra pure green and but 
little shining. The thorax is narrowed towards the front, with the anterior angles acute and 
prominent, the posterior ones well marked and slightly obtuse ; the raised margin is very 
distinct, and is wanting only from the middle both in front and behind. The scutellum is 
impunctate and shining, like the thorax. The punctuation of the elytra is rather fine and 
scanty ; they have some irregular and unsymmetrical black spots, which are probably only 
accidental. The propygidium is rugose; the pygidium is rugose at the base, and is elsewhere
