NEW PHYTOPHAGOUS COLEOPTERA 71 
43. Sastra limbata, Baty.. 
Hab. New Guinea, Fly River (L. M. D'Albertis). 
The specimens obtained by Mr. D'Albertis differ from the type 
which I have examined in the less shining and finely pubescent 
elytra, the metallic colour of the latter in these specimens is 
also less defined. than is the case in the type which was pro- 
bably an imperfect specimen. 
44. Sastra rugosa, n. sp. 
Fulvous finely pubescent; antennae and legs piceous; thorax 
with some deep depressions, angulate at the sides; elytra finely 
and closely rugose-punctate. 
Length 2 lines. 
Head very finely rugose-punctate, the frontal tubercles strongly 
raised, transversely oblique; labrum piceous; antennae shorter 
than half the length of the body, black or piceous, the third 
joint the longest; thorax transverse, the sides more or less di- 
stinctly angulate before the middle, the posterior angles acutely 
oblique, the anterior ones tuberculiform, surface with a very 
deep round depression at the sides and a smaller one near the 
anterior margin, the raised portion of the disc very strongly 
punctured the depressed parts more shining and smoother; scu- 
tellum broad, subpentagonal, pubescent; elytra thinly clothed 
with very short fulvous pubescence, the entire surface closely 
rugose and punctured; the tibiae unarmed; the first joint of 
the posterior tarsi as long as the two following together; claws 
bifid; the anterior coxal cavities open. 
Hab. Sumatra, Singkava (Beccari). 
This species, although possessing shorter and more robust an- 
tennae than its allies as all the structural characters of the 
genus and may be known by the rugose upper surface of the 
elytra and the uniform fulvous colour.
