E U O P S. 



I believe the most reliable specific character of the species of 

 this genus consists in the puncturation, especially of the prothorax. 

 The species known to me may be thus tabulated : — 



Eyes contiguous falcata, Gu^r. 



Eyes subcoutiguous. 



Prothorax transversely punctate or corrugate. 



Elytra golden or greenish-golden BaJcewelli, Jekel. 



Elytra black corrugata, n.sp. 



Prothorax scarcely visibly punctate strigirtntris, n.sp. 



* The characters given for the species which here follow are anything 

 but satisfactory, but there appear to be none better; they all (as well as 

 others which are represented in my collection by unique or but very few 

 specimens and therefore not described) appear to be distinct; it is possible 

 that some of them should be regarded as varieties only. I have thought it 

 best, however, to regard them all as species.
