 Found six of this large purplish-blue metallic buprestid, with brassy- 

 yellow spots, on Salix longifolia in the Alameda. It seemed to be 

 eating the leaves. On August 21st many more were found on the

 found also Nov. 14th, 1892, on same Salix in Alameda. The beetle 

 is common, but I have never found it on anything else except 

 this Salix. Grant Gounty, N. M. (W. J. H.}; one.*
