Longicorn Coleo2'>tera of Japan. 197 



middle, thence continuing as a narrow blade to the apex, Avliich 

 is pointed ; their surface is thickly punctured throughout, with 

 a faint raised line down the middle. The abdomen is pro- 

 longed much beyond the tip of the elytra (female?), the pygi- 

 dium being very long, convex, and sinuate at the apex ; its 

 surface, as well as that of the preceding segment, is fulvous. 

 Tiie antennae are three fourths the length of the body, filiform, 

 stout, and ruddy brown.

This remarkably slender species differs from Chloridoluvi in 

 having the fourth antennal joint distinctly shorter than the third, 

 instead of being of the same length. It does not agree either 

 with Leontium^ having the antenna long and slender, instead 

 of robust, and serrate or spinose. The antenniferous tubercles, 

 however, are obtuse, as in Leontium argentatum. In the 

 naked and finely scabrous elytra, and also in colom-, it agrees 

 with Aromia moschata ; but it differs in its antennje and long 

 slender hind legs and tarsi. As the genera allied to Calli- 

 chroma are at pre33nt very unsatisfactorily defined, I hesitate 

 to add to the confusion by instituting a new one for this insect.
