MiSOPHRICE MUNDA, Sp.nOV. 



Oblonga, postice baud latior ; supra testacea, capite, pro- 

 thorace, antennis (basi excepta), elytiis circa scutellum et in 

 sutura, tarsisque, piceo-nigris ; subtus piceo-nigra, abdomine 

 rufo ; supra squamis viridibus sat spaisim vestita ; rostro 

 arcuato, gracili, prothorace paullo longiori, supra obscure 5- 

 carinato; antennis sat nitidis, rostri paullo ante medium insertis, 

 funiculi articulis 2° 3°que inter se subajqualibus, his con- 

 junctis 1° paullo brevioribus, ceteris transversis ; prothorace 

 leviter transverse a basi ad apicem vix arcuatim angustato 

 sat crasse sat crebre sat rugulose punctulato, basi vix mani- 

 feste bisinuato ; elytris puncturis sat magnis subquadratis (in 

 striis leviter impressis positis) instructis ; prosterno antice 

 abbreviato vix emarginato. [Long, y^^, lat. j^ line (vix). 



Allied to the last preceding two species and differing from both 

 in respect of the distinctly green scales thinly scattered over the 

 surface, — more plentifully on the head, prothorax and base of the 

 elytra than elsewhere and also in the differently proportioned 

 joints of the antennal funicle. Differs from M. submetallica also 

 by the elytra not being dilated posteriorly, by the much smaller 

 size and by the antennae being inserted well in front of the middle 

 of the rostrum, — and from M. oblonga by the prothorax and 

 rostrum being of a dark colour, the former being less narrowed 

 anteriorly and slightly more transverse while tlie latter is more 

 slender and elongate being somewhat longer than the prothorax 

 (in oblonga not at all longer).
