anterior spots and six larger posterior discal spots on pronotum, 

 of which the two central are subquadrate and close together and 

 the two outermost at lateral angles are smallest, two transverse 

 spots at base of scutellum, followed by two rounded spots on each 

 lateral area, a central discal somewhat wedge-shaped spot and a 

 rounded or transverse spot before apex, black ; antenna}, rostrum, 

 and sternum blackish, margins of sternum brassy-green : base of 

 head beneath and abdomen ochraceous, the last with a large spot 

 at base and the greater portion of apical segment black ; large 

 oblique stigmatal spots black, shaded with brassy-green ; lateral 

 margins of the abdomen pale purplish ; femora red dish-ochraceous, 

 their apices, the tibiae, and tarsi black. 



Length 13 to 1-4; width between pronotal angles 0^ to 74 

 millim.

The variety described by Kirby is slightly larger thaJi the typical 

 form described by Dallas ; the apical spot to the scutellum is also 

 smaller and less transverse.

 sternal lateral areas, a submarginal series of oblique spots to 

 abdomen, apices of the femora, the tibia- and tarsi dark indigo- 

 blue; antennae piceous; pronotum with six spots, three submarginal 

 and three large and elongate on posterior disk (these last have 

 sometimes the two outermost spots broken and duplex), scutellum 

 with seven spots, six in pairs and one discal and elongate,

The size and the ochraceous apical margin of the scutellum 

 render the identification of this species very simple.

 of head, eyes, pronotum, scutellum, and body beueath ochraceous ; 

 central lobe to head excluding base, a spot at inner margin of each 

 eye, a transverse anterior fascia to pronotum connected with a
