 llab. in Java, Mus. Dom. MacLeay. 



" I have received this species from Java; it varies in size, and may 

 at once be distinguished from E. viridis by its smooth upper sur- 

 face, which is of an opalescent bright green ; its under side is also 

 more brilliant, and of a golden-coloured bronze ; the tibiae and tarsi 

 are invariably green. The E. MacLeaii of Mr. Kirby's MSS. is 

 only a large variety of this species."

'• This insect is closely allied to E. viridis, MacLeay; it is, how- 

 ever, distinct. Viridis in form is oval. Cupripes, ovate : the under 

 side is of a rich rose-coloured copper, without any aeneous tinge. I 

 have received one specimen from Java, and a second from the Te- 

 nasserim coast."

 Hab. in Calcutta ? Mus. Dom. Hope. 



" I obtained this species from Calcutta ; I am doubtful, however, if 

 that be its real habitat. It is stuck with a needle, like most of the 

 Chinese insects, and may have been imported into Calcutta. It is at 

 present the largest species of Euchlora I am acquainted with."
