Hab. Pacific slopes (1-3000 feet). One example. Has also been obtained 

 in Colonil)ia and Mexico. 



2. Colaspis adlichloris, Lefevre, Mittli. Munchener Ent, Veiein, 1878, p. 121. 



Hah. Nanegal (3-4000 feet). One example. Has also been obtained in 

 Coloml)ia and Mexico. 



3. C. montmia, n. sji. 



Hab. Nanegal (3-4000 feet). One example. 



Obscure piceous below ; femora pale fulvous ; joints 5-7 and the lltli of 

 antennie black ; above obscxrre dark fulvous witb greenish gloss ; thorax 

 finely, elytra strongly semipunctate-striate. 

 Length, 6| mm. 



Head rather closely and strongly punctured, deeply transversely grooved 

 between the eyes ; epistome about as broad as long, punctured like the head ; 

 labrum fulvous ; jaws black ; antennte slender, the third and fourth joints of 

 equal length, the four basal joints and the eighth to the tenth, testaceous, — 

 the others black ; thorax rather transverse, scarcely narrowed in front, sides 

 dettexed anteriorly, the angles produced in a short tooth ; lateral margin 

 l)identate at the middle, surface finely punctured, dark fulvous, the extreme 

 lateral margins metallic green ; elytra distinctly transversely depressed below_ 

 the l)ase, very strongly punctate-striate anteriorly, geminate and more finely 

 punctate below the middle, the punctuation very coarse and deep at the sides 

 where the interstices are convex and transversely wrinkled, from the shoulder 

 to the apex runs a more or less distinct costa parallel with the lateral margin, 

 another short costa is placed close to the first one at the humeral callus ; 

 underside, the knees, tibiae and tarsi piceous ; femora fulvous. 



The only specimen before me seems closely allied in coloration to C. 

 laridula, Lefevre, but differs in its larger size, more finely an<l closely punc- 

 tured thorax and in the colour of the intermediate and idtimate joints of the 

 antennte as well as the tibite and tarsi.
