238 ANOMALA CHALCESCENS. 



variety ia which the elytra are more strongly punctured 

 was captured iu April 1877 at Solok. 



This appears to be a common species, and is found in 

 Java and Borneo, as well as in Sumatra: Dejean's speci- 

 mens are labelled as being from the former of these loca- 

 lities. Burmeister's few words of description of A. semi- 

 purpurea [Handhuch IV , 2 , p. 505) can scarcely apply to 

 this species.

 supra viridis, plus minusve testaceo-diluta , nitida, fortiter 

 punctata, pygidio fere opaco, dense subtiliter parum pro-

This is of the size and form of A. xantlioptera Blchd. 

 It is of a green colour but more or less diluted with tes- 

 taceous , so as to have in some lights a more or less purple 

 appearance , below yellow , more or less tinctured with green ; 

 the colour no doubt a good deal variable. Head green, its 

 punctuation coarse, dense and rugose. Thorax rather coar- 

 sely and closely, evenly punctured. Elytra rather rough , 

 the punctuation being uneven so as to cause in some parts 

 rugosities , and the serial punctures , though only indistinct, 

 more or less deeply impressed , so as to give rise to an obs- 

 cure appearance of striation. On the undersurface the setae 

 and pubescence of the breast and legs are , as in A. xan- 

 tlioptera^ rather longer and more conspicuous than in the 

 allied species. 



The four individuals are all males , and have the club 

 of the antennae of unusual length, viz 2' m.m. They were 

 captured in September and October at Alahan Pandjang.
