the abdomen obscure jeneous, nearly black, the legs dark piceous, 

 unarmed, the femora sometimes fulvous. 



Hab. Burmah, Panugdé, Maulméin. 



This species seems closely allied to G. affine Lefèv. (Nouv. Arch. 

 du Mus. 1894) and the female has, like that species the strong 

 rugosities extending to the apex of the elytra, but the head is 

 differently sculptured in the présent species and without strigae and 

 the ponctuation of the thorax is uniform and even, quite diflferent 

 than in Q. aj^ne, there is also no trace of a fémoral tooth ; from 0. 

 puleherrimum Baly the elytra strong rugosities principally sepa- 

 rate the species. The maie is unknown to me. 



Colasposoma metallicum Clark. 



Numerous spécimens from South Bombay, mostly of dark bronze 

 colour but also metallic green and blue I must refer to Clark's 

 species, the type of which is contained in the British Muséum; the 

 spécimens in the présent collection do not differ materially or at ail 

 from this type, but Clark's description of the species is not only 

 applicable to many but absolutely wrong, as the colour of the 

 antennae, underside and legs is given as black, which is not the 

 case, metallic aencous or green is the real colour of the undersur- 

 face and the legs. 



Colasposoma eeneoviride Clark. 



An examination of the type in the British Muséum proves this 

 species not to be a Colasposoma at ail but a Colaspoides and 

 identical with Colaspoides cuprea Baly likewise from Pulo-Penang. 



Colasposoma obscurofasciatum n. sp. 



Below black, above metallic dark blue, head and thorax strongly 

 but not very closely punctured, dise of latter more or less cupreous, 

 elytra rather remotely punctate-striate, with an obscure broad 

 purplish band, from the shoulder to the apex, breast more or less 

 metallic. 



Length 2 lines. 



Head rather finely and remotely punctured, more or less cupreous 

 at the dise, the sides above the eyes, finely strigose, clypeus 

 separated from the face by some deeper punctures placed semicir- 

 cularly, its surface not more closely punctured than the head, 

 labrum, mandibles and palpi black, antennae black, the six lower 

 joints shining, more or less piceous, the basai joint stained with 

 metallic »neous above, terminal joints slightly thickened ; thorax
