on the disc, and nodosf at lliu sides anteriorly, the antennae not so 

 elongate. The allied C. fusciinemhris Fairm. (1S91), from Kashmir, 

 is de><cribed as having a non-cordate prothorax, with the sides suhangnlate 

 at about the middle, the legs fuscous, and the antennae extending beyond 

 the middle of the bt»dy. The })resent insect superHcially resembles 

 Eulobonj/x sericcns, unmounted examples of which were sent with it in 

 the same tube. It has the mandibles bifid at the tip, and the anterior 

 tibiae are armed with two spurs. 



Chrysanthla 7'uyicoUis, n. sp. 



Elongate, narrow, depressed, rather dull above, sbininf^ beneath, very 

 finely pubescent ; aeneo-cupreous, the oral organs (the tips of the mandibles 

 and palpi excepted) and legs (the partly infiiscate tarsi excepted) testaceous, 

 the antennae black, the three basal joints testaceous. Head densely punctured; 

 antennae about reaching the basal third of the elytra. Prothorax oblong- 

 cordate, slightly longer than broad ; denselj', somewhat rugosely punctate, the 

 puncturing coarser than that of the head, interruptedly sulcate, foveate before 

 tlie base, without lateral callosities, the basal margin prominent. Elytra long, 

 densely granulato-puuctulate, with four fine raised lines. Sixth ventral seg- 

 ment triangularly niarginate in cJ .

Hah. IxDiA, W. Almora in Kumaon {H. G. C). 



One pair. Extremely like C. hi/iuiJaica, differing from that insect 

 in the rugosely punctured, non-nodose prothorax, characters bringing it 

 nearer to the broader, robustly-built O. valens, which, moreover, has a 

 less elongate prothorax. 



Clirysanfhia valens, n. sp. 



$. Elongate, rather convex, moderately siiiuing, very finely pubescent; 

 metallic green, the oral organs (the infuscate tips of the mandibles and palpi 

 excepted) and legs (the wholly or partly infuscate tarsi excepted) testaceous, 

 the antennae piceous, with joints 1 and 2 testaceous. Head closely, con- 

 spicuously punctate, the eyes promiuent; antennae rather stout, reaching to 

 about the basal third of the elytra. Trothorax as wide as the head, nearly 

 as long as broad, cordate, feebly margined at the base, the anterior margm 

 sinuate; closely, strongly punctate, obsoletely canaliculate, foveate in the 

 middle posteriorly. Elytra much wider than the prothorax, long, narrowed 

 towards the apex ; densely grauulato-punctulate, with four raised lines on the 

 disc, the outer one not visible from above. Legs rather stout. 

 Length 8, breadth 2| mm. 



Hah. IxDTA, W. Almora in Kumaon {H. G. C). 



One specimen. Uroader and more robust than C. himalaica, the 

 head and prothorax more convex and strongly punctured, the latter
