more coiistaut in colouring, the prothoracic patch does not divide 

 into two, and the longer front claw of the male has an exceedingly 

 minute outer branch at a distance fi'om the tip. In A. fulvi- 

 ventris this has disappeared. 



200. Anomala galerucina, sp. nov. 



Deep metallic green, with the elytra sometimes dark blue, and 

 with the foUovAing parts bright orange-yellow : — the front of the 

 clypeus, the lateral margins (and sometimes the whole circum- 

 ference) of the pronotum, the third interval of the elytron, the 

 middle part of the second, tlie anterior i)art of the fifth and the 

 posterior part of the seventh, the pygidium except at the sides, 

 and the femora and tibiae, except the hinder part of the hind 

 tibia. The front and middle tarsi are reddish and the hind tarsi 

 nearly black. The metasternum and abdo- 

 men are dark green in the male and partly 

 or entirely yellow in the female. 



It is very long and narrow, and the legs 



are slender. The head is finely and rugosely 



punctured, and the clypeus short, narrowing 



to the front, where it is nearly straight. 



The pronotum is strongly and moderately 



closely punctured, with the sides scarcely 



curved, distinctly angulated near the middle, 



with the front angles very sharp and the 



hind angles nearly right angles. The scu- 



Fig. A^.— Anomala tellum is short, wide and strongly punc- 



galerucina, 2 • tured. The elytra are deeply striated, the 



striae containing rather indistinct punctures,, 



and the third, fifth and seventh intervals being more elevated and 



convex than the rest. The pygidium is rather strongly and 



closely punctured, the metasternum closely punctured and clothed 



with fine grey pubescence. 



(S . The front tibia is armed with two sharp teeth placed close- 

 together, the hind tibia is inflated before the middle and con- 

 stricted before the end, the longer middle claw is minutely cleft 

 at the apex, and the front ones are entire. The pygidium is less 

 closely punctured than in the female. 



$ . The front tibia is armed with two strong oblique teeth, and 

 the longer front and middle claws are cleft. 

 Length, 7-8"5 mm. ; breadth, 3-3*.5 mm.
