dida, apicibus rotundatis. Corpus infra cyaneum, segmentis abdominis 
sericie argenteâ obsitis. Pedes femoribus subscabris let? cyaneis, tibiis

The above insect inhabits Assam. The sexes of the Species appear to differ 
in their antennæ, those of the males being more robust, and the elytra are 
more acuminated at the external angles. The true Callichroma of Latreille 
seems confined chiefly to the New World, although in modern catalogues we 
find some African species ranged under that generic title. Those species, 
however, with very conspicuous dilated tibiae ought to be separated from Cal- 
lichroma, as they evidently belong to a subgenus. M. De Haan mentions one 
Asiatic Species in the Leyden collection. In my cabinet there is another 
elegant insect, which I have named Joscelis from its violet-coloured legs: it is 
likewise from Assam. The present species is named in honour of Dr. Cantor. 
It is satisfactory to state, that his valuable collection of Reptilia, with his ex- 
quisite drawings, are safely.deposited in the Radcliffe Library at Oxford,
