20 COLASPOIDES APICICORNTS. 



place are transversely rugose and longitutliually costate, 

 3 or 4 costae being generally plainly visible ; at the apex 

 the costae are shorter and less distinct. Underside dark 

 fulvous , with a metallic green gloss especially at the breast. 

 Legs fulvous , the femora sometimes metallic greenish , the 

 anterior with a small , the posterior ones with a very stout 

 and rather large tooth. 



Five specimens of this species have been collected by 

 Mr. I. C. van Hasselt at Soekadana: Lampongs. 



This species cannot be confounded with C. regularis 

 Baly, with which it agrees in the toothed femora, but 

 differs in its smaller size , the colour of the legs and the 

 geminate not singly punctate-striate elytra.
