32 Mr. J. S. Baly on the Eumolpidae. 



on the disc, the sides nearly inipunctate. Scutelluni smooth, ini- 

 pnnctate. Elytra nearly a third longer than broad, very convex, 

 slightly depressed on the sides below the shoulders, regularly punctate- 

 striate, the strife somewhat less regidar towards the apex ; obscure 

 metallic blue with a faint coppery reflexion ; each elytron with a small 

 subapical patch and two broad transverse bands shining metallic green ; 

 the first of the latter is basal, and extends from immediately within the 

 extreme outer border nearly to the suture, its lower edge being deeply 

 emarginate on the shoulder ; the second, slightly irregidar above and 

 below, is situated immediately behind the middle of the elytron, com- 

 mencing and terminating in the same manner as the former. 

 Sab. Siam. Collected, together with the two following species, by 

 M. Mouhet. 



Co rynodes igneo -fasciatus. 



C. oblongo-elongatus aut oblongus, valde convexus, nitido-cagruleus ; 

 thorace subreniote punctato ; elytris subcrebre irregidariter punctato- 

 striatis,nietallico-purpiu'eis, utrisque fasciis duabus utrinque abbre\-iatis, 

 Isete \'iridi-8eneis, auro-marginatis. — Long. 3|-4i lin. 



Oblong-elongate or oblong, very convex, deep shining metallic blue ; 

 elytra each with two broad transverse bands, bright metallic green, 

 edged with gold. Head with the face finely rugose-punctate, forehead 

 deeply punctui-ed ; five outer joints of antenuse more suddenly dilated 

 than in the preceding insect. Thorax as broad at the base as long, 

 cylindrical, apex obsoletely trisinuate; sides slightly rounded, nar- 

 rowed in front ; subglobose above, surface subremotely covered wdtli 

 deep pimctm'es, which are regularly dispersed over the whole surface, 

 but are somewhat more distant on the sides and apex. Scutellum 

 broadly semiovate, its apex subacute. Elytra from a quarter to a third 

 longer than broad, very convex, transversely depressed below the 

 shoidders ; surface covered with numerous rows of punctures, more 

 crowded and less regular than in Corynodes jndchellus ; each elytron 

 with two broad transverse bands extending from just within the outer 

 margin nearly to the suture, bright metallic green, edged with aureous ; 

 the first of these, placed at the base, has its lower border distinctly 

 emarginate ; the second, situated just below the middle, has both the 

 upper and lower margins notched. Body beneath dark metallic blue. 



Hah. Siam. 



Very closely allied to the preceding species, but nevertheless di- 

 stinct, the thorax rather more closely punctured, the punctate stria) 

 on the elytra much more numerous. 



Corynodes pyrospilotus.
