shallow luugitiidiiial impression, tlie sides broadly but slightly 

 emarginate ; propleursc with an oval hollow much shallower than 

 in C. fnscipennis ; mesonotum and scutellum convex, the former 

 shorter and the latter longer proportionately than in C fiisci- 

 2^eniiis ; mesopleui ae finely punctured anteriorly, coarsely rugose 

 posteriorly, the apex below with four depressions separated by 

 short carina; ; scutellum and median segment depressed below the 

 level of the rest of the thorax, the posterior lateral angles of tlie 

 latter produced and acuie ; wings as in C. Juscij^ennis, but not 

 quite so dark. Abdomen : ]st segment somewhat concave at base, 

 Hud and 3rd segments medially faintly logitudinally carinate; the 

 anteapical series of fovea) on the latter small, narrow, transverse, 

 the apical margin with four much rounded blunt teeth equidistant 

 from each other.

Hah. Eecorded so far only from Bengal, Barrackjiore (Iiothney), 

 and var. Jiogr/ei, Kurse C Entomologist,' xxxvi (1903), p. 40) from 

 Quetta (Kitrse). The latter, of which I have seen only one speci- 

 men, also a d" , is very similar to C. perfecta. Cam., with the same 

 four very blunt teeth on the apical margin of the 3rd abdominal 

 segment, but it is smaller, with the puncturing slightly coarser and 

 the wings hyaline. It probably forms a subspecies or race. 



C. perfecta superficially resembles C. fuscipennis, but can be 

 distinguished from that species by the facial cavity not margined 

 above, the anterior ocellus not placed in a hollow, and the re- 

 markably blunt apical teeth on the abdomen.

 the 2nd abdominal segment and basal area of the 3rd deep

 beneath green ; antennae dusk}- black, the scape and basal two joints 

 of the flagellum above green, tarsi dark brown ; head and thorax 

 closely and somev^hat coarsely punctured, the punctures serried 

 and rugose, deeper but scarcely larger on the postscutellum than 

 on the thorax anteriorly ; abdomen slightly more finely punctured, 

 the punctures shallow but running into reticulations in cei'tain 

 hgbts ; facial cavity almost as coarsely punctured as the rest of 

 the head, but with a central, smooth, highly polished space ; the 

 head (facial cavity included), thorax and abdomen covered with a

 broader than long, occiput sloped posteriorly, slightly emargiuate, 

 vertex and front strongly couAex, broad ; facial cavity deep, with 

 a deep medial longitudinal groove, its upper margin bordered by a 

 transverse carina : antennse short but some^^"hat slender, the 1st 

 and 3rd joints of the flagellum subequal, the 2nd longer than 

 either ; clypeus anteriorly transverse. Thorax elongate, narrow ;
