Very closely allied to A. ocreatus, but having a different aspect at first sight, owing 

 to its brighter metallic colouring, at least in the male, and its rather smaller and 

 narrower form with decidedly less elongated elytra. Guatemala examples are less 



i 



typical than those from Chiriqui, and in corresponding measure approach the Mexican

NOTIOBIA (p. 52).

1. Notiobia chiriquensis. (Tab. XIII. fig. 11.) 



Notiobia concolor (ante, p. 53). (Nee N. concolor, Putzeys.) 



Hab. Panama, Volcan de Chiriqui (Champion). 



The large series of the Chiriqui Notiobia allied to N. concolor and N. jucunda sent 

 home by Mr. Champion since my first determination of the species show a constant 

 difference in colour from the concolorous greenish N. concolor, the head and thorax 

 being dark metallic green and the elytra brownish coppery. The form is also a little 

 larger, being 12 millim., whilst N. concolor is only 10 millim. I have compared them 

 with four examples of the true N. concolor from Colombia and Venezuela. N. chirir 

 quensis is smaller than the other Colombian species N. jucunda, which measures 

 14 millim., and differs from it in the form of the thorax, which is much less transverse, 

 less rounded at the sides, and less narrowed to the hind angles ; the legs, besides, are 

 palish tawny reddish, and not dark pitchy red as in N. jucunda.
