Celorrhina auraia, Burmeister, H. d. E., iii. p. 208. 
Inhabits the shores of the Cammeroons River, in Western Tropical Africa. In the Cabinet 
of J. Turner, Esq. of Manchester. 
I am unfortunately unacquainted with the male of this species, 
and am therefore unable to determine the precise group to which 
it belongs, placing it here provisionally, since it differs from the 
Eudicellze and Ceelorrhina 4-maculata in the broader shape of its 
elypeus and green tarsi, although agreeing with the latter insect in 
a narrower form than that of the female Eudicelle, as well as in 
the narrowed shape of the mentum. It agrees with Taurhina 
Nireus ¢ in possessing green tarsi, but differs in the truncature of 
its clypeus. 
The general colour of this insect is a rich golden-green. The hind part of the prothorax 
and the suture and margins of the elytra more fulvous. The clypeus is very much punctured ; 
its margin and the antenne and palpi black. The maxille in the female have both lobes 
armed with an acute tooth. The elytra have a small black triangular patch at each shoulder, 
and a black spot near the tip of each. The suture is also black at the tip. The feet are 
golden-green ; the femora above are fulvous golden-green ; whilst the tibie and tarsi are green- 
golden, with the ungues black. The podex is green, with numerous black transverse-indented 
striole. The body beneath is of a richer golden-green, with the legs and tarsi green, the femora 
fulvous-green on the upper edge, the clypeus beneath green with the margin black. The sides 
of the metasternum and of the abdominal segments are much punctured; the middle of the 
metasternum with a red line. The sternal process is broad, with the apex subtriangular (fig. 
3a, 3b). 
Section 6. —-STEPHANORRHINA, Burmeister. 
This section (which Dr. Burmeister has regarded as congeneric 
with ©. 4-maculata and simillima) is distinguished by the anterior 
tibiz of the males being simple in both margins, and by the head 
of the same sex having an obconical horn on the front of the fore- 
head, and the anterior angles of the clypeus elongated into porrected 
horns. The sternal process is very similar in form to that of 
C. aurata (pl. 45, fig. 3 a, 3.6). The female has the head simple, 
the clypeus slightly emarginate, and the anterior tibie 3-dentate. 
The elytra are carinated and marked with numerous white pubescent 
spots.
