A fine large species, bearing considerable resemblance to 

 C. longipennis, Hope, but at once distinguishable by the presence 

 of distinct ocular sulci and of a carina on either side close to the 

 eye, the opaque prothorax, the stronger sei-iate puncturation of 

 the elytra, the absence of iridescent colouring on the underside, 

 fulvous tarsal vestiture, &c., &c. Placed beside G. cuprij^ennis 

 this species is seen to be much larger, with the eyes evidently less 

 (though not 7nuch less) remote, the seriate punctures of the elytra 

 considerably larger and less closely placed (in most parts three — 

 but here and there only two — punctures on a length equal to the 

 width of an interstice), &c., &c. The eyes are remarkable for 

 having their antero-internal angles completely rounded off. The 

 outline curve of the elytra, viewed from the side, is feeble, with 

 its summit about at the middle of its length.

C. carinaticipiti valde atfinis sed capite prothoraceque versi- 

 coloribus, elytrorum coloribus viridi et purpureo alternatim 

 vittatim positis, prothorace antice pauUo minus angustato ; 

 elytris grosse seriatim foveolatis ; cetera ut C. carinaticipitis.

Notwithstanding the close resemblance of this insect to 



C. carinaticeps in nearly all its structural characters (I can find 



no difference in them except in the less anterior narrowing of the
