KIUSHIU : Nagasaki, Oyayama, Yuyama, Konose, in the province of Higo. M A I N ISLAND : Kashiwagi, Yunoshiku, Oyama; Y E Z O : Sapporo. Several specimens were obtained in May and June 1881, a few of which are of the variety without spots on the posterior part of the elytra. Some years ago I saw specimens which were said to have been found at Hakodate. 2. MYCETINA ANCORIGER, Gorh. Ent. Mo. Mag. ix. p. 206. Hab. KIUSHIU : Nagasaki, Miyanoshita, Higo. M A I N ISLAND : Wadatoge, Awomori, Shimonosurva lake. Met with rarely, and apparently in single specimens. 3. MYCETINA LATICOLLIS, n. sp. (Plate LIII. fig. 2.) Nigro-picea, nitida; elytris castaneis, disco indistincte infuscato, valde convexis; antennarum articulo apicali, geniculis tarsisque rufis. Long. 3|-4 millim. Hab. M A I N ISLAND : Kashiwagi, Nara, Maiyasan at Kobe. A good deal larger than M. ancoriger, broader and with the elytra more convex. Antennae longer in proportion, and with then-joints all less transverse. Eyes rather large and more coarsely granulate than in M. amabilis; mouth and palpi rufous. Thorax twice as wide as long, very similar in form to that of M. ancoriger, impunctate, basal sulci deep, and curving inwards at their apices. Scutellum of the same rufous colour as the elytra, the latter very much swollen, rather strongly rounded at the sides ; viewed laterally they are slightly gibbous, distinctly punctured, but not very deeply so. The underside is pitchy, the abdomen pitchy red. I have only seen seven examples of this Mycetina, two from each of the localities first named and two or three from the neighbourhood of Kobe.
