 (Wickham). 



" More slender than cuprascens and readily known by the elytra 

 " being more than twice as long as wide, less strongly punctured 

 "and not shining; the markings are of the same form, but nar- 

 " rower, and the external angle of the obliquely sinuate elytra of 

 " the female is obtuse or at most rectangular." (LeConte.) 



Bronzed ; elytra finely and sparsely punctured ; elytra $ less 

 eraarginate, subapical tooth rather obtuse ; tip slightly prolonged, 

 suture spinous; elytra % with tip slightly prolonged. 



The characters given are quoted from Horn and LeConte, but 

 after seeing specimens from Wisconsin I am unable to separate 

 macra even as a variety. I have omitted this name from the list.

Habitat. — Miss., La., May and June. 



Recently collected by Mr. Hugo Soltau at Covington, La., "on 

 " the snow-white sand banks of a little stream which flows through 

 " a beautiful country covered with timber. They would dart around 

 " more in the shade towards the sloping bank than close to the 

 " water's edge." 



Smaller than cuprascens; dark coppery above, dark green be 

 neath, all the trochanters rufous; elytral markings consist of a 

 basal dot and a broad marginal line, from which proceed a slender 

 C-shaped humeral lunule and a hooked middle band ; the apical 

 lunule is scarcely distinguishable from the broad continuation of the 

 marginal line ; other characters and pubescence as in cuprascens, 

 except the sexual characters ; elytra 9 less eraarginate than sperata,
