 Smaller and darker than C. fusculum, the elytra some- 

 what shorter than the thorax (in C. fusculum they are con- 

 spicuously longer) ; the antennas more robust and testaceous 

 throughout (in C. fusculinn the intermediate joints are 

 fuscous). 



The first specimen which came under my notice, I found, 

 without a locality ticket, in Mr. Wollaston's Collection ; 

 Mr. H. Squire met with several specimens at Whittlesea 

 Mere, Hunts, and at Horning, Norfolk, in the autumn of 

 1858 ; and at the beginning of May last, I secured seven or 

 eight examples at the roots of grass at the edges of the dykes 

 in Holme Fen, Hunts.
