deep foveolate punctures, the interstices smooth and impunctate. 
Length 3 1/2 lines. | 
Of broadly subquadrate shape, of dark bronze colour, the head 
with a few very fine punctures, irregularly distributed, the vertex 
with a central longitudinal groove, the clypeus strongly separated 
by a triangular groove, antennæ only extending to the base of the 
elytra, the basal joint quadrately widened, stained with fulvous 
below, the terminal five joints widened, scarcely longer than broad, 
the last more elongate with a short conical extra joint at the apex; 
thorax nearly three times broader than long, the sides straight at 
the base, but slightly rounded and narrowed anteriorly, anterior 
angles acute but not produced, the surface rather convex, strongly 
metallic, the dise with a few deep punctures, irregularly placed, 
they are rather more frequent and smaller near the anterior 
margin, the sides deeply variolose and confluently puntured, thicke- 
ned, scutellum broad, impunctate, elytra convex and broad, the apex 
rather evenly rounded, with four double rows of deep round 
punctures, the rows ill defined near the apex, not regularly placed 
and a row of smaller punctures near the suture, the interstices here 
and there with a few very fine punctures, underside coloured like 
above, nearly impunctate, metallic, the sides of the breast closely 
and strongly punctured, tarsi densely clothed with yellowish 
pubescence beneath; the male organ long and curved, cylindrical, 
the apical margin truncate, slightly widened, the anterior cavity 
short and broad, narrowed posteriorly, the lateral edges of the 
cavity acute. 
ab. Belgaum, Madura (Bombay and Madras presidences). 
In general appearance and colour this species is not unlike the 
European C. Banksi, the want of the deep thoracic lateral sulcus 
separates however the present insect at once; C. orientalis Wied. 
also resembles it but is described as 5 lines in length besides other 
differences; ©. micans Jac. is larger, of entirely different shape 
and strongly deflexed posteriorly, the elytral punctures are larger 
and more closely placed ; I have given here a more detailed descrip- 
tion of Baly’s species, the type with which I have compared it, the 
author calls the colour « cupreus » but dark æneous or bronze- 
colour is a better definition of the tint.
