 with some fine striee near the suture, numerous transverse striae 

 near the apex, and an interrupted yellow fascia behind the middle. 

 Pygidium black with two large yellow spots. Under surface of 

 body and legs piceous, punctate, each puncture furnished with a

416. — SCHIZORHINA VIRIDICUPREA. n. sp. 



Length 6 lines. 

 Of a brilliant coppery green, with the upper surface of the 

 thighs, the tibias, the tarsi, the antennae, and the parts of the mouth, 

 of a piceous red. Head long, finely punctate, with the clypeus 

 slightly emarginate, and of a bluish colour at the apex. Thorax 

 smooth and rather elevated along the median line, depressed on 

 each side of it, and marked with a number of short transverse 

 striolae. Scutellum with a few punctures near the sides. Elytra 

 furnished with numerous erect hairs, punctured in irregular rows 

 near the suture, rugosely striolate towards the sides, and im- 

 pressed with a large oblong fovea behind the middle. Under 

 side of thorax and thighs pilose. Apex of mesosternum flat, 

 dilated and rounded. 



The sculpture of this insect is the same as in Getonia fulgens 

 described by me in Vol. I., page 18, of our Transactions, but it 

 differs from it in being of a broader form, and very different colour.
