 median lobe without lateral prolongations. 



Length, 26-30 mm. ; breadth, 14*5-16 mrn.

Bright green, with the clypeus, sides of the pronotum, lower 

 surface, legs and apex of the pygidium fiery-red. 



Oval, convex, smooth and shining. The head is densely punc- 

 tured, the clypeus subrugosely, with its front margin almost 

 straight in the middle and rounded at the sides. The pronotum 

 and elytra are very finely punctured, the former closely and the 

 latter less closely. The pygidium is finely and closely trans- 

 versely rugulose and bears a few inconspicuous but moderately 

 long hairs. The front tibia is bidentate, the hind tibia short and 

 stout, and the longer claw cleft on the front and middle feet.

 of the front tibia is sharper and shorter than in the female, and 

 the hind tibia rather longer and not dilated at the extremity. 



Length, 22-29 mm.; breadth, 13-16 mm.

This insect has the closest similarity to A. dussumieri, Bl. The 

 colour of the upper surface is a rather deeper shade of green, it 

 is a little more closely punctured and therefore less shining, and 

 the pygidium is more finely and densely rugulose and more 

 metallic. The sedeagus of the male is quite different in shape, 

 the median lobe having very long terminal processes. 



251. Anomala grandis. (Plate II, fig. 7.) 



Euchlora grandis, Hope,* Mag. Nat. Hist. (2) iv, 1840, p. 284. 



Bright green above, and very smooth and shining, with the 

 extreme outer margins, the lower surface and legs golden green 

 or coppery. 



It is a large species, oval and convex in shape. The entire 

 upper surface is moderately finely and closely punctured, the 

 clypeus rather rugosely. The latter is short and transverse, with 

 the front edge nearly straight in the middle. The pronotum has 

 the sides gently and uniformly rounded, the front angles nearly 

 right angles and the hind angles very blunt. The punctures of
