Methy Portage, Hudson's Bay Territory ; Mr. R. Kennicott. 

 This species belongs to the same group with C. repanda, &c, 

 but differs from all the species known to me by the markings. 

 The white lines are all very broad, and arranged as follows : the 

 humeral lunule commences at the base, extends along the margin, 

 and then runs obliquely inwards, sometimes so as to touch the 

 angle of the middle band ; behind the lunule is a white margin, 

 which extends to the tip, obtusely dilated near the tip, where it 

 represents the apical lunule ; the middle band arises perpendicu- 

 larly from the white margin, bends backwards at an obtuse angle, 

 runs obliquely nearly to the suture, and ends opposite the dilatation 

 of the white margin ; the hind part of the band is straight and 

 gradually clavate. The elytra of the two sexes do not differ in 

 form. In one specimen the marginal line is interrupted in front 

 of the apical lunule, which thus becomes isolated.
