Warroo by Mr. Blackman to Mr. KrefFt, who intends to present 

 it to the Museum. It evidently aioproaches the C. gemmatum 

 Westw. 



11. — Cakenum foveolatum. 



Nigro-cyaneum nitidum, elytris ter seriatim foveolatis serie 

 prima foveis quinque, secunda quatuor, tertia tribus im- 

 pressis, tibiis anticis extus tridentatis. 



Long. 4<^ lin., lat. 1| lin. 

 The upper surface is of an uniform dark blue. The head has 

 a transverse wavy line near the occiput, from which the facial 

 grooves take their rise, and proceed forwards and inwards for 

 some distance, when they turn outwards. The thorax is nearly 

 truncate in front, and rounded behind, with the base slightly 

 reflexed; the medial line is deeply marked until near the anterior 

 margin, and there are short oblique impressions at the 

 anterior angles and near the posterior ones. The elytra are 

 rounded behind, and twice the length of the thorax, with three 

 rows of round foveas on each, the first row consisting of five, 

 (three near the base and two towards the apex), the second, of 

 four almost equidistant, and the third, of three. There is a row 

 of punctures along the lateral margins, which are almost emar- 

 ginate near the apex. The fore tibia? are tridentate externally, 

 the upper tooth being small. 



The only specimen of this insect I have ever seen is in the 

 cabinet of Mr. W. S. MacLeay, and is labelled " N.E. Coast, 

 New Holland." It seems to approach the G. gemmatum "Westw. 

 very closely ; the position and number of the foveee on its elytra 

 and the entire difierence of colour forming the most important 

 distinctions. 



12. — Carenum coeuscum. 

 Nigro-viride nitidissimum, thorace sublunulato, abdomine sub- 

 rotundo, elytris convexis sub lente striato-punctatis punc- 

 toque pone medium impressis, tibiis anticis tridentatis. 

 Long. 7 lin., lat. 2f lin. 

 The upper surface of this insect is of a brilliant green, and 

 beneath it is black. The head has a slight transverse line neai' 

 the occiput, from which the facial grooves take their rise, these
