size, if we except four, which are small ; these are the second 

 from the suture in each of the second and third bands. The 

 scales forming the spots have a slight golden hue, but are very 

 pale. 



This species nearly resembles the F. Erichsoni, but differs in 

 having the thorax larger and more globose ; the eyes are rather 

 larger and less convex, c^c. 



Sp. H. Pachyrhynchus lalifasciatiis, Waterh. 



Splendide aeneus ; thorace fascia transversa ; elytris seriatim 

 punctatis, fasciis duabus (in medio interruptis), maculisque 

 tribus ad apicem, ornatis ; his fasciis maculisque e squamis 

 viridibus effectis. 

 Long. Corp. G lin. 



More elongated, and with the thorax larger and more globose 

 than P.moniliferus. Kostrum with an impressed longitudinal line 

 on the basal half, and with a large but shallow triangular fovea, 

 the base of which is nearly in a line witli the point of insertion of 

 the antennae ; in front of this line the rostrum is humped. Thorax 

 convex and considerably swollen in the middle ; smooth, and 

 with a central transverse band which is much dilated on the 

 sides. Elytra ovate, with rows of small punctures ; abroad band 

 near the base, and a second near the middle ; both these bands 

 are interrupted at the suture, and the second is curved on the 

 side of the elytra and runs backwards along the margin. Beside 

 these bands is an oblong dash on the apical portion of each elytron, 

 near to, and parallel with the suture, and there are moreover two 

 sub-apical spots. All the bands and spots are formed of pale 

 green scales, which have very little metallic lustre. 



Sp. 13. Pac/iyrhynchns sir'/alus, Waterh. 



Ater ; elytris profunde punctato-striatis ; capite macula inter 

 oculos ; thorace supra trimaculato ; elytris duodecim-macu- 

 latis ; maculis aureis ; illis elytrorum ad basin quatuor, et ad 

 apicem quatuor elongatis, ad medium quatuor, scilicet duabus 

 externis rotundatis, ct duabus d<)rsalil)us transversis.

This species is rather smaller than /'. vion'il'ifcrus, and of a 

 narrower form. It is most nearly related to P, roseo-maculatus, 

 and very nearly resembles that insect in its markings, but here they 

 are of a golden hue, and instead of the cordiform spot on the
