Eustra biplagiata, judging from an example from Burmah so named by Bates and now in the Genoa Museum, has the thorax very much narrowed behind (fig. 2), without conspicuous lateral projecticns, and the elytra are also much less wide, and only " vage imbricato-punctatis," as Schmidt- Goebel described them. The pygidium also is smooth. In the Genoa Museum there is a third species from Teinzo in Burmah, in which the head is less elongate, the eyes more prominent, and the colour and general sculpture different. Hab. Common in Kiushiu under stones and bark of decay- ing trees, and it is often gregarious. Also taken at Kashiwagi and on Maiyasan near Kobe'. Some notes on its habits are given in the Ent. M. M. p. 39 (1881). Trechus ovipennis, sp. n. Gracile ovatus, supra depressus, piceo-brunneus, palpis, antennis.
