,ul,basal one being clear in the middle. In lund wings ihe costal veinlets 

 entiiely dL ; small blotches at pterostigma, near apex of radius, and subbasal 

 on inner margin. (Plate II, fig. 4.) 

 Lengtli of fore wing 10 mm. 



A single specimen, Amara, 14tli September, 1918 {Bua^ton). 

 Allied to a fedtsclienTcoi McLachl. Although the colours and 

 markinc^s of the body in the type are not iu a satisfactory condition, the 

 species shouldbe easily recognized from the wing-markings. The mmute 

 particles dusted over the wings in the photograph are apparently due to 

 the presence of adventitious matter. 



Note -Since the foregoing was written, Mr. Campion of the British 

 Museum has submitted another example of C. tigridis in winch the

 under the antennae; a black line on the genae ; clypeus laterally edged 

 with black- raised vertex bordered with reddish and apparently two 

 faint brownish median Hues; middle of dorsal surface of thorax and 

 abdomen pale; pronotum rather broadly margined with brownish the 

 dark margins with short black spinose hairs ; indistinct brownish linear
