(havum articulo 3" mauifeste longiori) prothoraceqiie fere ut 

 G. cupripennis, Hope ; elytroruin quam C. cupripennis 

 seriebus minus fortiter punctulatis, interstitiis magis fortiter 

 punctulatis; cetera ut C. cupripennis. 



[Long. 6, lat. 3i lines. 

 Very like C. cupripennis in many respects, but cliflfering much 

 in shape, being very wide with strongly rounded sides and very 

 convex. Viewed from the side the outline curve of the elytra is 

 very strong, so that the elytra seem to be strongly gibbous behind 

 the base (as in C. seniiticuSj'PsiSC.). There is very little difterence 

 between the seriate punctures of the elytra and those of the 

 interstices, so that the former are very inconspicuous. This 

 species may be at once separated from C. semiticus, inter alia, by 

 its widely separated eyes and much more strongly punctured 

 elytral interstices.
