LXVr. — Descriptions of new Species o/ Cyphogastra (Coleo- 

 ptera, Buprestidce) . ^y Chas. O. Waterhouse, I.S.O., 

 F.E.S. 



The Natural History Museum has recently received a speci- 

 men of the genus Cgpliogastra, which agrees in most respects 

 with Capitaine Kerremans' diagnosis of C. aterrima (Ann. 

 Soc. Ent. Beige, Iv. p. 297, 1911). He says that it is intense 

 black, and differs, moreover, from C. ventn'cosa, with which 

 he compares it, in wanting the subhumeral spot on the elytra.
