Captured in the territories of Assam by Mr. Griffiths. Messrs 

 Percheron and Gory, in their monograph of Cetoniadce, have 

 classed the typical species of this genus (which was named by me 

 C. xanthorhind) under the genus Macroma of Mr. Kirby, not 

 aware that Macroma is a division of Schizorhina. They have 

 also changed the specific name which I originally gave the latter 

 insect, in describing General Hardvvick's insects. The genus was 

 named by me Campsiura, from the Greek. 



The drawing of the typical species, which they call C. hi- 

 color, in the above quoted monograph, is wretchedly bad, and 

 does not give an idea of the insect. The description is meagre, 

 and cannot convey to the Entomologist any thing like its real 

 form. Campsiura scuteUata, Fab., and confusa, Hope, both of 

 them belonging to Africa, are represented in the East Indies, by 

 C. Xanthorhhia and Nigripennis. It is probable that Macroma 

 Javanica, G. and P. may belong to the same genus. 



MiMELA, Kirby. 



Mimela Princeps, Hope. 



Tota supra viridis, aurata, nitida, lateribus thoracis foveis notatis, 

 femoribus et tibiis luteo-brunneis tarsisque bronzeis.
