Testaceous, with the head, pronotum and scutelluiii suffused 

 with a goldeu green lustre, and the elytra, the pygidiuni, the 

 posterior part of tlie abdomen and the tarsi red. 



It is elongate-oval in shape, not very convex or shining, the 

 whole upper surface being finely and rather closely punctured. 

 The head, pronotum and scutellum are closely and evenly punc- 

 tured, the eyes small and rather far apart, the clypeus small and 

 broad, with the margins strongly reflexed, the sides strongly 

 rounded, the front margin nearly straight. The sides of the prono- 

 tum are evenly curved, the front angles nearly right angles, the 

 hind angles well-marked but obtuse, and the base gently trisinuate 

 and not margined. The elytra have live moderately impressed 

 dorsal striae containing fine but confused punctures, the sub- 

 sutural interval is broad and incompletely divided, and all the 

 intervals are finely and irregularly punctured ; the marginal 

 membrane is narrow. The pygidium is transversely and not 

 very strongly rugose. The sides of the metasternum are 

 rugosely punctured and scantily clothed with short yellowish 

 hair. The front tibia is armed with a long terminal tooth and 

 a short upper one ; the hind tibia is long and slender, and the 

 longer claw of the front and middle feet is cleft. 



<S . The last joint of the front tarsus is enlarged, the inner 

 front claw is strongly dilated, and the terminal tooth of the front

 punctured. The head, pronotum and scutellvun are densely 

 punctured, the eyes small and far apart, the clypeus broad, with

 sides. The sides of the pronotum are very obtusely angulated in 

 the m.iddle, straight in front, the front angles acute, the hind 

 angles distinct but not sharp, and the base gently trisinuate, but 

 not completely margined. The elytra have six rather deep dorsal 

 stride, the second disrupted in front and abbreviated behind, and 

 the fifth interval dilated and divided in its anterior part ; the 

 strife contain fine and rather confused punctures, and the inter- 

 vals are finely and irregularly punctured ; the marginal mem- 

 brane is rather broad. The pygidium is transversely and rugosely 

 strigose. The sides of the metasternum are rugosely punctured and
