3. C. UNIFASCIATUS. — Blackish ; elytra witli a white band on 

 the middle. 



Body black, tinged with greenish : antennae and palpi pale 

 rufous : thorax widest before the middle, so as to resemble a 

 tubercle on each side : elytra with a very narrow, pure white 

 band on the middle : feet blackish ; tarsi pale. 



Length rather more than one-tenth of an inch. 



Of a form similar to the preceding. 



[Also a Hydnocera ; described by Spinola as H. punctata. —

ENOPLTUM Latr. 



E. DISLOCATUM. — Black ; elytra with a whitish band and 

 spots. 



Body punctured, black, hairy: head on the anterior [177 J

 a spot at its inner tip, an angulated band beyond the middle, and 

 a spot near the tip, whitish-yellow : feet pale. 



Length from three-twentieths to nearly one-fifth of an inch. 



Var. a. Spot at tip of the elytra obsolete or wanting. 



Although the antennae differ considerably from the character- 

 istic form of this genus, yet as they have three large and sepa- 

 rated joints at tip, and the palpi are all filiform, with five distinct 

 joints to the tarsi, I have thought best to place the present in- 

 sect in the genus EnopJium.
