230 Mr. Waterhouse on new species of Coleoptei-a. 



A little longer than E. viridimaculata^ and rather straighter 

 at the sides. Thorax with the sides less reflexed, very finely 

 23unctured, the base very slightly lobed in the middle. Elytra 

 strongly and rather thickly pimctnred, but much less strongly 

 than in viridimacvlata^ the punctures are pitchy and each is 

 furnished with one or two short fine hairs, the surface is more 

 even, and there are no raised Hues, the margins are rather 

 more incrassate. Each elytron has a single black spot on the 

 shoulder.
