I am very doubtful, notwithstanding the striking difference in 

 colour and slight difference in sculpture, whether this species is 

 not the (S of C. ignifascia. The description of both species has 

 been taken from the types kindly lent me by Dr. Gestro, of the 

 Genoa Museum ; but the two males of C. hurmanica in my own 

 collection are much greener than the type of that species, and one 

 of them makes an approach to the brilliant colouring of C. igni- 

 fascia, as it has the apical margin of the 2nd abdominal segment 

 a decidedly yellow golden-green.
