though as it is of course impossible to ascertain this for 
certain, I will (as in the case of the Hoplia already 
referred to) cite the diagnosis of M. Blanchard, while at 
the same time recording my conviction that further evi- 
dence is greatly needed in order to establish the species 
as a truly Canarian one.

It would seem that there is a Fabrician Buprestid (of 
which I was not aware) bearing the specific title “‘ ornata,” 
which enters into this genus; and the Baron Harold 
appears therefore to have proposed for my Fuerteventuran 
Acmeodera the name of elegans instead. Hence, the 
corrected synonymy will be as follows :— 
Aecmceodera elegans. 
Acmeodera ornata, Woll. [nec Fab.], Cat. Can. Col.
