Die Cetoniden der Philippinischen Inseln. 209 



Mr. Cumming is in the Cabinet of the Entomological Club. 

 This insect Is about the size of tlie wellknown Europaean 

 species^ Cetonia stictica ; its coloiir is verj dark, but oc- 

 casionally relieved, especially on the sides of the pro- 

 thoiax, the logs etc., with a metallic splendonr; the ely- 

 tra have the elevated longitiidinal ridge so general among 

 the Cetoniae, and in depresscd space between this and 

 the suture are fife abbreviated Striae, a single one and 

 two pairs ; the elytra , mureover, are nearly covered 

 with coarse but shallow punctures.^^ — Newman. 



Diese Beschreibung stimmt keineswegs mit der Cet, 

 mandarinea Weber in allen Punkten so liberein, dass ich, 

 ohne das Originalexerapiar gesehen zu haben, mit G em- 

 rainger und v. Harold dieselbe und die Cet. querula 

 für identisch halten möchte.
