Head strongly anrl closely imnctured ii:- well as the lateral sulcus, the middle 

 with a longitudinal groove, clypeus separated by a deep transverse groove, broader 

 than long, finely rugosely punctured; labrum black, antennae bluish black, the 

 basal joints greenish, the second stained with fulvous, the terminal five joint > broadly 

 dilated, purplish ; thorax twice as broad as long, the sides but moderately deflexed, 

 distinctly rounded at the middle, dark blue or greenish, strongly and closely 

 pimctured, the punctures round and deep, and more closely placed at the sides than 

 on the disc, the interstices also with some small i>unctures ; elytra with a di^tinct 

 transverse depression below the base of bright coppery colour, the sutural and lateral 

 margins metallic green, rather regularly, strongly, but not very closely punctured iu 

 single rows, the shoulders in shape of a short ridge, the sides with two more or less 

 distinct longitudinal ridges extending nearly to the apex, the base with another 

 elongate tubercle or short costa placed iu front of the shoulders; under-idi- nietiillie 

 greenish, clothed with whitish pubescence, distinctly punctured. 



Jifib. Celelies. 



The bright cujn-eous colour of the elytra and their basal tubercle, the punctuation 

 arranged in single rows, and the very closely, rather evenly and strongly punctured 

 thorax will distinguish this species; the variety only differs in the entirely blue 

 colour. 



Corynodes tmituberculatus >p. no\. 

 Metallic violaceous lilue, head and thorax strongly and remotely punctured, 

 elytra with basal depression, moderately strongly punctate-striate in single rows, 

 the sides witli a distinct tubercle below the shoulder, \isible from abo\e. claws 

 ai)pendicnlate. 



Length 3 to 3^ lines. 



Head strongly but not \ery closely punctured with a longitudinal central groove, 

 the clypeus separated from the face by a transverse groove, more closely ))unctured 

 than the head, antennae extending beyond the middle of the elytra i>urpli>h, the 

 lower six joints shining, greenish, the tenninal five joints but very moderately dilated 

 longer than broad ; thorax about one-half broader than long, subeylindrical, the sides 

 ."traight, the surface remotely i)unctured at the disc, all the margin> nearly 

 impunctate ; elytra with a rather deep depression below the base, regularly and 

 rather finel}' punctate-striate, the rows of very nearly equal distance except those 

 nearest the suture, which are arranged in one double row, the shoulders prominent, 

 and followed by a distinct tubercle near the lateral margin ; the last elytral 

 interstice longitudinally costate, underside and legs bluish. 



Hah. Timor. 



From the many described species, the ]>resent one may be principally known by 

 the long and but little dilated antennae and the very distinct elytral tubercle which 

 is visible from above, and ])rojects di'^tinctly from the sides of the elytra; this 

 tubercle, although also present in many other species, is in this one much more 

 prominent. 



Cleorina puncticollis >p. nov. 



OKscure greenish black, above metallic green, antennae black, tlie lia.«al joints 

 fulvous; thorax coarsely punctured, the punctures confluent at the sides; elytra 

 strongly punctate-striate anteriorly, the interstices very minutely punctured.
