toque apice rufis. Prothorax basi modice constrictus, supra obsolete

Besides C. plicata and C. speciosa, there are two more Philippine 
species of Collyris described: Coll. acrolia, Chaud. Bull. d. Mose. iv. 
1860, a large and beautiful species, described by Chaudoir as blackish, 
but as being, in a fresh state, of a bluish green colour like C. plicata ; 
and Ooll. albitarsis, Er. ( femorata, Westw.), a small species, which 
varies, independently of the sex, in the colour of the posterior legs 
(v. Chaud. Berl. Zeitschr. 1861, p. 399).

1. Cicindela latipennis, Parry, Trans. Ent.Soc.iv. p. 84=C. angulata, 
Herbst, Dej. 
. OC. Prinseppii, Saund. Trans. Ent. Soc. i. p. 64, sec. typum=C. 
minuta, Fabr. (pumila, Dej.). The figure in the Transactions 
is very inaccurate.

3. C. Gyllenhalii, Dej., and C. imosa, Saund. 1. ¢., which have been 
considered as identical, are distinct species. In the former the 
elytra are entirely shining in the female and the sides of the 
thorax rounded ; in the latter the elytra are opake, with only a 
shining spot in the female, and the sides of the thorax nearly 
straight.

. CO. funerea, MacLeay (Ann. Jay.), sec. typum=C. marginepunc- 
tata, De}. A second specimen in the Kast India Cabinet, standing 
as funerea, is= C. undulata, Dej.; but MacLeay’s description only 
refers to C. marginepunctata. 
5. C. tremebunda, MacLeay (Ann. Jay.). The type specimen in the 
East India Cabinet is probably a small variety of C. Sumatrensis, 
Herbst. 
6. C. aurovittata, Brullé (Arch. du Mus. i. pl. 8. fig. 3)=C. sex- 
punctata, Fabr., var.
