niai-gin strongly reflexed. The foreliead is rather coarsely punc- 

 tured and the prouotuin strongly and densely, the punctures of 

 the latfer becoming confluent a*t the sides ; the lateral margins 

 are rounded, the front angles are right angles, the hind angles 

 well marked but obtuse. Tlie scutellum is closely punctured, 

 except at the edges, and the elytra are densely and confliiently 

 punctured, «ith a few indistinct larger pnnctui'es which form 

 scarcely distinguishable longitudinal lines, the marginal membrane 

 being rather broad. The pygidium is densely granulated and 

 opaque. The metasternum is moderately well clothed with pale 

 hair and the sides of the abdomen less thickly. The front tibia 

 is bidentate, and the longer claw is cleft on the front and middle 

 feet, 



r? . The apical tooth of the front tibia is short and sharp and 

 the hind tibia moderately long. 



2 . The apical tooth of the front tibia is long and curved and 

 the hiiul tibia very short and stout. 



Length, 14-17 mm. ; breadth, 7o-9 mm.

Shining coppery or golden green, with the elytra chocohite- 

 brovvn, scarcely perceptibly sufi'nsed with metallic green, closely 

 and coarsely punctured and opa(]ue. 



it is oval in shape and moderately convex. The clypeus is 

 seraicircidar, strongly and closely punctured, with the margin 

 strongly reflexed. The forehead is rather less closely punctured, 

 The pronotum is very sliiuing, finely punctured in tlie middle, 

 the puncturation becoming stronger towards the sides, where it 

 is coarse and rather close ; the sides are anguLited before the 

 middle, all the angles are obtuse and the base is not completely 

 margined. The scutellum bears a few conspicuous punctures, 

 and the elytra are unequally but deeply and closely punctured, 

 the punctures becoming confluent, especially at the sides ; some 

 of the larger punctures form indistinct longitudinal impressed 

 rows. The pygidium is rather coarsely transversely rugose and 

 clothed with rather long, but not thick, yellowish hair. The 

 sides of the metasternum and abdomen are coarsely punctured 

 and similarly clothed. The front tibia is armed with two strong 

 teeth, the hind tibia short and stout and the longer claw of the 

 front and middle feet is cleft. 



d . The lower lobe of the longer front claw is angulaidy dilated 

 beneath. 



Length, 1-1 mm. ; breadth, 8 mm.
