third from the apex transverse, not attaining the suture but extending 

 to the margin, the subapical extending nearly to the suture and dilated 

 along the margin, the spots reddish-yellow in color; striae deep, punc- 

 tate, the intervals sparsely punctate; antennae testaceous, the first 

 joint asnescent. Length 15.0 mm. Washington State (Steilacoom) . 



gibbsi Lee. 



Anterior pale spot wholly discal like the others, never extending to the base; 

 antennas always black, with more or less aeneous or greenish metallic 

 lustre throughout 36 



36 — Subapical spot of the elytra very oblique, the anterior spot nearer the 

 side margin than the suture. Body brilliant and pure green, becoming 

 faintly aeneous medially beneath, slender; head very densely, sub- 

 uniformly punctate; eyes prominent; prothorax four- fifths wider than 

 long, the sides parallel and straight to beyond the middle, there rounding 

 and distinctly convergent to the apex, the latter broadly sinuate, feebly 

 arcuate medially; surface bluish centrally, coarsely, closely punctate, 

 confluently so laterally; elytra nearly two and one-half times as long as 

 wide, a fifth wider than the prothorax, parallel, the sides rounding and 

 becoming oblique in apical third, the striae deep, coarse, finely, con- 

 fusedly punctate, the intervals not quite twice as wide as the striae, 

 remotely punctulate, not very convex; anterior spot moderate, rounded, 

 almost twice as far from the suture as from the side, the second trans- 

 verse, irregular, not attaining either suture or sides, the third not 

 attaining the sides or suture; abdomen with the basal segment not at 

 all impressed, finely punctate, densely so laterally ; legs slender. Length 

 13.5 mm.; width 4.5 mm. California bistrinotata n. sp. 



Subapical pale spot only moderately obUque, the anterior on the median 

 line 37 



37 — Prothorax apparently parallel, the sides evenly and distinctly arcuate. 

 Body very slender, slightly convex, colored as in bistrinotata; head 

 small, densely punctate, with a small central aeneous callus not sug- 

 gested in the preceding; eyes prominent; prothorax short, very nearly 

 twice as wide as long, strongly but sparsely punctured, more closely in 

 the medial depressed line and more coarsely as well as densely later- 

 ally, with a deep rounded sublateral impression behind basal third, 

 the apex but little narrower than the base; scutellum rounded, convex, 

 smooth; elytra fully two and one-half times as long as wide, between 

 five and six times as long as the prothorax and nearly a third wider, 

 nearly as in the preceding but more broadly sinuate at the tips; inter- 

 vals narrower and more convex, the spots all discal, not attaining 

 suture or sides; abdomen finely, more sparsely punctate, the basal seg- 

 ment very faintly impressed along the middle, the fifth segment trun- 

 cate and feebly bidenticulate at apex in the male. Length 12.5 mm.; 

 width 4. 1 mm. California angusta n. sp. 



Prothorax similarly distinctly narrower than the elytra but with the sides 

 converging from base to apex, broadly arcuate basally, becoming 

 straighter anteriorly or evenly arcuate throughout 38
