Genus Cuatcometa, Baly. 
1. Chalcomela subpunctata. 
C. pilule (Clark, Journ. Entom. ii. 251) affinis ; fere rotundata, 
zeneo-nigra, subtiliter punctata: caput foved lineari minuta 
subtransversa alteraque longitudinali versus apicem, sub- 
tiliter et creberrimé punctatum, labro rufo-flavo; thorax 
ut in C. piluld sed crebrius subpunctatus; scutellum late 
triangulare, impunctatum, nitidum ; elytra rotundata, striato- 
punctata, punctis haud ut in C. piluld magnis et inzequalibus 
sed minutis confertis et ordinatis, interstitia subtiliter punc- 
tata etiamque subtilissimé rugosa; corpus subtus, pedes et 
antenne nigro-enel. 
Long. corp. lin. 24; lat. lin, 24. 
This species may readily be separated from C. pilula by its more 
regular stripe-like punctures on the elytra; the punctures are 
smaller and more closely arranged: it differs also in the minute 
thread-like fovea on the head.

Fam. EUMOLPID.

tatum, violaceum; thorax transversus, lateribus antice 
constrictis et depressis, marginatis et dentibus obsoletis 
3 vel 4 armatis, margine basali subsinuato et in medium 
marginato; confusé confertim et inzequaliter punctatus ; 
scutellum subcirculare, impunctatum, viride; elytra versus 
apicem striis 2 vel 3 utrinque brevibus ornata, interstitils

This species, which I name in honour of its captor, is entirely 
different from the other two species of the genus, G, tuberculata 
and G, geniculata, both of which, found at Swan River, are com- 
mon in collections. 
In the collection of Mr. Baly, as well as in my own.
