1) Of this variety, which is intermediate between Eupkolus Geoffroyi Guer. 

 and Tupinierii Guer., the Leyden Museum has received two specimens of dif- 

 ferent size from Mr. J. W. van Lansberge. They agree with the first-men- 

 tioned species in possessing a short naked transverse band, which in the va- 

 riety is represented by a small transverse spot, on the middle of the second 

 green or blue region of the elytra at a distance of two interstices from the 

 suture, whereas they agree with the second in having the usual transverse 

 black bands continued from the suture to the lateral margins. 



2) The two longitudinal naked spots on each elytron are united with each 

 other by the naked fifth interstice. Moreover the interstice which runs along 

 the suture is devoid of scales, possibly from abrasion. In the descrijition of 

 the typical Quadri-maculatus no mention is made of the rounded, although 

 prominent shoulders, by which the species may be distinguished at a glance 



rum Cuvierii.
