CHRYSOMELIDA. 407 
(but not much denser) on sides. Hlytra slightly wider than 
prothorax, with ten rows of not very large punctures 
(moderately large at sides), becoming much smaller on 
apical portion ; interstices scarcely visibly punctate. Length 
74, width 4mm. 
Hab.—Q.: Somerset (Mr. C. French). 
Moderately close to flavescens, but the antenne are 
entirely pallid, the head less coarsely punctate, and the pro- 
thorax with smaller punctures at sides, and denser on disc. 
CALOMELA CEPHALOTES, n.sp. 
Pale testaceous, apical half of antennz and claws infus- 
cate; each seriate puncture on the elytra surrounded by a 
watery ring. 
Head wider than usual, being almost the width of pro- 
thorax, feebly punctate, the punctures more distinct (but 
very small) in front than elsewhere ; clypeus separated from 
the face by a curved line, from the middle of which a short 
line is directed backwards, but does not extend to the vertex. 
Prothorax densely and rather finely punctate, punctures be- 
coming larger (but not* very large or variolose) at sides. 
Elytra not much wider than prothorax, with ten rows of 
small punctures less distant from each other than usual, but 
becoming obsolete posteriorly; interstices gently (but dis 
tinctly) convex, and with small punctures. Length 8, width 
33mm. 
Hab.-_N.W.A.: Upper Ord River (Mr. R. Helms). 
Of the shape and size of flavescens, but with the head 
larger and more finely punctate, the anterior margin of the 
prothorax less sinuous, with the sides more coarsely punctate, 
and the elytral punctures decidedly closer together; from 
pallida it is at once distinguished by the punctures of the 
head, besides its narrower form. 
CALOMELA AMETHYSTINA, D.sp. 
Head (basal portion, except for a narrow median line, 
bright metallic green), antenne (apical half infuscate), pro 
thorax (extreme apex and base infuscate, and extreme sides 
green), and legs clear testaceous; scutellum and elytra 
bright metallic blue or purplish-blue, sometimes with a 
greenish gloss; under-surface testaceous, but (except apical 
segment of abdomen and prosternum) with a very decided 
bluish (or greenish) gloss. 
Head with coarse and not very dense but irregular punc- 
tures, smaller and sparser in middle of vertex than else- 
where; clypeus rather densely punctate, and distinctly
