the middle, and the centrai one of these is a large s[)ot on the 

 suture connnon to both elytra ; this is larger than either of the 

 others and round, the single suhapical spot is also roundish. 

 The puncturing of the underside is more rugose and less thick 

 than that of C. craticidaris, in the finely facetted eyes and coxal 

 lines it agrees with that sj)ecies ; although but few specimens 

 were obtained they vary in size a good deal but not in pattern. 

 The form is a very perfect oval , a little more pointed behind 

 than in front. Viewed laterally it is convex, and gibljous i. e., 

 the greatest convexity is more in front than behind. 



The antennae are testaceous, with the clul) fuscous. There 

 are four examples in the collection.

The head is of a darker red than the thorax, and this colour 

 is more or less indistinctly found margining the yellow markings 

 of the elytra. The punctuation of the head and thorax is very 

 close, but not confluent. The elytra have fine punctate striae, 

 and the interstices are extremely minutely punctured. The form 

 is ovate but rather broad , and not much pointed behind. The 

 eyes are very finely facetted. The antennae are pitchy with a 

 darker club; the legs pitchy with paler tarsi. The elytra, epi- 

 pleurae , the abdomen and parts of the body beneatli are 

 yellowish.
