Languria elegans n. sp. — Cuneiformis, nitida, capite et pro- 

 thorace hete rufis, illo sat magno, triangulari, hoc convexo, 

 latitudine paullo longiori, lateribus leviter rotundatis, disco parcius 

 minus profunde punctato, basi utrinque parva striola instructa; 

 scutello sat magno, rufo; elytris cœruloo-cyaneis, ])ostice acumi- 

 natis, ordinibus punctorum seriatim dispositis, a{)ic'ibus truncatis; 

 antennis sat longis, clava 5-articulata; corpore subtus pedibusque

Cuneiform, head and thorax red, elytra metallic blue; prothorax 

 rather convex, somewhat longer than broad, sides impunctate, 

 dise with rather large, shallow, diffuse punctures, base with a 

 small stria on each side; elytra with shoulders well marked, 

 narrowed behind, with rows of moderately strong punctures, 

 which become obsolète towards apex; apices truncate, exterior 

 angles denticulate; antennae rather long with a fîve jointed club; 

 underside of head and thorax red, rest of under surface and legs 

 j)itchy black. This species somewhat resembles L. me7iadensis 

 Crotch, but is distinguished by the 5-jointed club of its antennae 

 (that of Z. menadensis being 4-jointed), longer and more parallel 

 sided thorax, bluer elytra, which are more strongly punctured, and 

 (nitirely pitchy legs. Z. propincfia bears some relation to it, but 

 lias a much squarer thorax, and more parallel sided elytra.
