Very near to rufiventris, Mots. [Cratolampis], which, 

 without doubt, belongs to this genus. It appears to differ 

 in the coloiu* of the thighs, Avhicli in -proxima are with 

 the coxffi and whole of the body entirely yellow; the knees 

 alone with the tibiaB and tarsi are black. The thorax 

 is Avider and more acuminate in front than in jlavicollis, 

 and is also Avith the scutellum clothed Avith short, yellow 

 hairs.

Three specimens appear to agree Avith this, but the 

 thorax is not translucid in any part, and is scarcely 

 channelled.
