 gular, directed downwards and a little outward, foliaceous 

 margins wide and flat, a slight sulcus separating them from 

 disc with a few (one to three) setiferous punctures thereon, 

 extreme border black and raised throughout, disc with 

 medial line evenly impressed throughout, otherwise smooth 

 or microscopically punctate. Smtelluni cordate, on same 

 level as elytra, smooth. Elytra, 10 x 6 mm., oval, shoulders 

 rounded, epipleural fold not prominent, with eight well 

 marked sulci on each elytron above, and two on the side, 

 intervals equal and strongly convex (increasingly so towards 

 the sides and aj)ex). Epipleura^ and abdomen smooth, pro- 

 sternum transversely lightly striate. Femora unarmed, fore 

 and hind tibiae curved, the former enlarged at apex, the lat-

The above is the species wrongly labelled (J. hrevirollis 

 Haag-Rut., in the Macleay Museum, noted by me in the 

 revision of the genus (These Proceedings, 1906, p. 238). I 

 have a large number of specimens taken by my son, R. B. 

 Carter at Gvnken in January, 1910, of wliich fifteen are 

 under examination. The colour varies from a bright violet- 

 bronze to dark bronze, and tends to become darker with age. 

 The small, but distinct, hind angles to prothorax, and its 

 bright colour distinguish it from C . hrevicolUs H.-Rut., while 

 it differs from L' . aripeunis Blackb., by colour, and much 

 less pronounced hind angles; from C. aricollis Pasc, it dif- 

 fers in its larger size, wider prothorax, anterior angles 

 rounded, more convex elytral intervals, etc.
