Colpopterous Famllij Cloridce. 97 



The pattern of the elytra of this species it is ahiiost iiiipossilile 

 to describe ; the basal half or rather more is of a dirty reddish 

 colour, beyond which is an irregular dark fascia more or less in- 

 tersected liy the sericeous pile which clothes the apical third, 

 which is, however, relieved by fuscous spots. Of the two 

 specimens which I refer to this species, one has the femora and 

 tibia? all ringed with fuscous, while the other has the front and 

 hind pair only spotted, the middle ones quite clear, the tibia? with 

 a ring only shewing al)ove distinctly. The antenna? are shorter 

 than the head and thorax, and are not setose, they have joint 

 11 e([ua] to joints S, 9, 10, which ar(> triangular acuminate 

 internally.

O'iK. I have a third specimen, horn New Guinea, which I 

 refer with doubt to the same species, it is smaller than either, and 

 has the legs entirelv vellow.
