Mr. H. E. Andrewes on Oriental Garabide. 407 
rather finely punctate-striate, 1-12 clearly marked at base, 
13-14 represented by one or two punctures only, 11-12 
disappearing at a half, and all strize becoming evanescent at 
two-thirds from base, intervals flat and smooth; the testa- 
ceous border extends at base to stria 11, contracts midway 
to 12, expands sharply to 8, contracts again to about 10, and 
reaches apex by a rather irregular curved line. 
Beneath, the sterna are coarsely punctate, the meta- 
sternum sparsely, metepisterna and base of ventral surface 
with a few very coarse punctures; front tarsi ¢ with joint 1 
moderately dilated, as long as 2-4 together, joint 2 slightly 
dilated. 
Very near O. brettinghame, Pasc., but a little larger and 
of a brighter green colour, the testaceous border narrower 
and with a more jagged inner ridge. Head more closely and 
more coarsely punctate, prothorax more closely punctate, 
elytral strize and punctures deeper, testaceous border dentate 
(inwardly) just behind middle, and again near apex (in O. 
brettinghame the inner margin of this border is gently 
undulating).
