HELOTA GROUVELLEI. 77 
tibiae: in ocellata the tibiae are bright metallic green or 
golden, in the new species the tibiae are pitchy rufous or 
pitchy, with a faint bronze hue. As to the position of the 
flavous elytral spots, in one of the two specimens before 
me (that of Sukabumi) both pairs are evidently placed 
between the 3rd and 7th striae, in the other specimen (that 
from Mt. Kawie) the spots of the anterior pair do not 
touch the 3rd stria. 
Length 8—8!/, mm. — Above dark bronze green, the 
lateral margins of the pronotum fulvous; the antennae 
piceous, the two basal joints rufous, the base of the joints 
of the club fulvous. — Underneath reddish testaceous; the 
head, the elytral epipleurae and the tip of the femora dark 
bronze green, the tibiae pitchy rufous or pitchy with a 
faint bronze hue, the tarsi pitchy. 
The head densely punctured, the punctures very small 
on the narrowed front portion, much larger and more distantly 
placed in the middle between the eyes. 
The prothorax broader than long, slightly narrowing in 
faintly curved lines towards the front margin which is 
slightly curved backwards, making the lateral angles some- 
what protruding; the base deeply bisinuate, the lateral 
angles acute, the median lobe rounded. The upper surface 
regularly densely covered with large punctures which 
become somewhat smaller towards the middle and leaving 
a space in front of the scutellum impunctate, The scutellum 
is strongly transverse, glossy and impunctate. 
_ The elytra each with 10 rows of punctures which become 
larger towards the sides; the interstices delicately punctu- 
red; the flavous elytral spots situated between the 3d and 
7th striae (in one of my two specimens those of the anterior 
pair do not touch the 8rd stria); the apices are bluntly 
pointed, dehiscent at the suture. 
The apical ventral segment is very broadly rounded 
posteriorly. The anterior tibiae are slightly curved and 
very distinctly punctured, the intermediate and posterior 
ones more sparsely punctured.
