18. Aulacophora celebensis, n. sp. 
Testaceous; tarsi obscure piceous; thorax with a few minute 
punctures; elytra finely punctured, a spot at the base and 
another larger one below the middle, black. 
Var. elytra with 2 small spots at the base and one below 
the middle or without basal spots. 
Length 3-4 lines. 
Head impunctate, deeply transversely grooved between the 
eyes, the latter large; antennae rather more than two thirds 
the length of the elytra, entirely fulvous, the third and the 
following joints of equal length; thorax twice as broad as long, 
the sides straight at the base, slightly rounded near the apex, 
with a narrow margin, the surface nearly impunctate, a few 
minute punctures being visible anteriorly only, with a strong 
lens; elytra a little more distinctly punctured, the basal spot of. 
variable size, but generally not quite extending to either margin, 
the posterior spot larger, rounded and also interrupted by the 
sutural and lateral margin; underside and legs entirely testa- 
ceous, the apices of the tibiae often and the tarsi piceous. The 
female seems to differ only in the little more closely punctua- 
tion of the elytra. 4 
In the variety the basal spot is divided into two smaller ones 
of which one is placed at the shoulder, the other near the scu- 
tellum; in another variety, the posterior spot only is present. 
Hab. Celebes, Kandari (O. Beccari). 
Evidently allied to A. bépunctata Oliv., but the posterior spot 
in the present species is placed much lower and is of a roun- 
ded shape; I have only seen this species from Celebes. 
19, Aulacophora fraudulenta, n. sp. 
Fulvous ; elytra scarcely visibly punctured, black, a transverse 
band at the middle of variable width, fulvous; apices of the 
tibiae and the tarsi obscure piceous. |
