CALLIGRAPHA. 245 
The specimens from the above localities differ from the type in the greenish-eneous 
colour of the elytral markings; the markings themselves also vary somewhat in shape, 
thus, the sutural band is interrupted at a little distance from the base, and the small spots 
below the middle are often more or less confluent; the antenne and legs in all these 
examples are, however, fulvous or piceous as in the type. C. suffriani may perhaps be 
most readily identified by the shape of the elongate mark at the shoulder, this being 
usually divided into three branches—one on the inner side and two behind. 
Calligrapha suboculata (p. 200). 
To the localities given, add :—Mexico, Atoyac in Vera Cruz (H. H. Smith), Tapachula 
in Chiapas (Hége) ; Guaremata, Cerro Zunil (Champion) ; Panama, Bugaba (Champion). 
Calligrapha ramulifera (p. 201). 
To the localities given, add :—Mexico, Tapachula in Chiapas (Hoge); GuateMa.a, 
Cerro Zunil, San Isidro (Champion). 
12 (a). Calligrapha fulvitarsis. (Tab. XLI. fig. 3.) 
Greenish-sneous, the antenne, labrum, and tarsi dark fulvous; thorax sparingly punctured ; elytra flavous, a 
broad sutural stripe with three lateral projections, an elongate shoulder-spot, a round spot near the 
scutellum, and nine or ten small spots on the disc, greenish-seneous. 
Length 4 lines. 
Head finely punctured; antenne entirely fulvous, the terminal joints but gradually and slightly thickened ; 
thorax twice as broad as long, scarcely widened at the middle, the sides straight at the base, very slightly 
rounded in front, the disc finely and sparingly, the sides more deeply, but not closely, punctured; elytra 
punctate-striate near the suture, the rest of the surface irregularly punctured, with a broad sutural stripe— 
narrowed towards the base, and with a short branch on each side, obliquely angulate below this branch, 
then narrowing, and below the middle suddenly widened again—and numerous spots—an elongate one, 
pointed behind, placed on the shoulder, a round one near the scutellum, three small ones placed obliquely 
before and two others below the middle, and a larger spot (sometimes divided) and two smaller ones 
near the apex, and, in addition to these, one joins the sutural stripe near the apex, and a thin elongate 
spot is placed near the lateral margin at the middle, all these markings being generally surrounded by 
a paler yellowish margin ; the apices of the tibiz and the tarsi fulvous or obscure fulvous. 
Hab. Panama, Bugaba (Champion). 
Numerous examples. C. fulvitarsis is very closely allied to C. suboculata, C. ramu- 
lifera, and several other species, but shows constant differences in the shape of the sutural 
stripe of the elytra, and in the colour of the antenne and tarsi. The sutural stripe is 
obliquely angulate below the base, the angle pointing downwards, this character being 
constant in all the specimens obtained. The markings will be best understood from 
our figure.
