I shall merely, therefore, say that it has the broken clavate antennae of Phalidura, only they are here longer than the head and thorax taken together.

The body is very convex:, having the thorax as wide as the abdomen, subquadrate, with very convex sides.

Abdomen joined to thorax by a distinct peduncle.

Thorax haud marginatus lateribus haud rotundatis subcylindricus antice angustius, postice sublobatus.

Thorax convexus antice posticeque marginatus lateribus rotundatis haud marginatis.

This insect differs from the L. unicolor of Stoll, a Javanese insect, inasmuch as its thorax is not dentated, and is marked at the angles with yellow.

The head and thorax are of the colour of the wings, their sides and the conical abdomen being rather lighter.

The thorax is gray, with a narrow, tawny, transverse mark, a lateral white fascia, two black curved marks, and on the hinder part a black spot.

Aenigma cyanipenne, Hope; variety with the whole of the thorax punctulated.

The species is of a pitchy brown, beneath it is yellowish and hairy; the margin of the thorax is yellowish, its disk has many short rust-coloured hairs, the elytra have 9 longitudinal impressed lines, the spaces between transversely striolated and somewhat scaled.

Thorax above black, sides and a narrow line down the middle yellow.

PLATE 2, FIGURE 2. Black; elytra slightly pitchy; head and thorax thickly punctured; thorax with a cruciform impression on the disk; elytra with three keels meeting before they reach the apex, the intermediate spaces and the apex irregularly punctate.

Thorax as wide as the head, narrowed in front; sides somewhat angular truncated behind, surface irregular; scutellum large, triangular.

PLATE 2, FIGURE 1. Head, thorax, scutellum, body and legs, entirely black.

Thorax with scattered punctures, and three or four depressions on the upper part.

Thorax globular, wider than the body.

The head is coarsely punctured, the thorax minutely chagrined with a deep indented spot on each side behind the middle.

Thorax black, punctured and hairy, a short narrow smooth line on the back behind.

Thorax brownish black, punctured and hirsute, a thick blunt spine from the middle on each side.

Thorax and elytra margined with obscure yellow, thorax with the anterior angles yellow, a few irregular punctures in the middle, and the posterior parts thickly dotted with impressed points; elytra with seven irregular lines of impressed dots, towards the tip they are irregularly dispersed, there are a few irregular yellow streaks near the margins of the elytra; under side blackish brown, tibiae and tarsi yellowish.
