long and gradually dilating to the extremity. The longer claw 

 of the front and middle feet is cleft. 



In addition to the colour-difference already described, the male 

 is rather less elongate in form than the female, and the lower 

 lobe of the larger front claw is strongly dilated. The club of the 

 antenna is long.

192. Anomala comma, sp. nov. (Plate IV, fig. 8.) 



Testaceous, with a golden-green suffusion, and decorated with 

 two confluent dark spots on the vertex and one having somewhat 

 the shape of an inverted comma on each side of the pronotum. 

 The pygidium and extremity of the abdomen beneath are reddish. 



It is elongate-oval, with rather long and stout legs, moderately 

 shining above and almost destitute of hairy clothing, except at the 

 sides of the metasternum. The head and pronotum are finely, 

 evenly and closely punctured, the clypeus nearly straight in front, 

 the eyes prominent, but far apart. The sides of the pronotum 

 are gently rounded, the front angles acute, the hind angles 

 obtusely rounded and the base finely margined. The scutellum 

 is well punctured, and the elytra are deeply punctate-striate, 

 with the subsutural interval very coarsely and confluently, and 

 the others finely, but not closely, punctured. The pygidium i* 

 transversely strigose. The front tibia is bidentate, the terminal 

 tooth long and the upper one very short ; the hind tibia is rather 

 long and slender, and the longer claw of the front and middle 

 feet is cleft.

 bent and dilated. 



Length, 10 mm. ; breadth, 5 mm.

This is rather more elongate than A. variegata, the golden- 

 green suffusion is deeper, the marks upon the pronotum are 

 reduced and the puncturation of the latter finer. I have seen 

 only a single male specimen. 



193. Anomala ciliatipes, sp. nov. 



Eeddish chestnut, with a coppery lustre above and beneath. 



It is small, oval, convex, very smooth and shining. The 

 clypeus is small, broadly rounded and, like the forehead, closely 

 rugose, and the vertex is strongly punctured. The pronotum is 

 moderately strongly punctured, with the sides obtusely angulated 

 before the middle, the front angles slightly acute, the hind angles 

 well-marked, but a little obtuse, and the base margined. The
