the Cistelida; ttc. of Japan. 4-13 



Elongate, rather obscurely green or bluish green, with 

 greyish pubescence ; the hca'l densely and roughly sculptured, 

 somewhat opaque ; the thorax widest behind the anterior 

 margin, cunslricted behiml; the elytra rather long, 4-costate, 

 very slightly narrowing to the apex; the antennte and legs 

 wjiolly brassy green or bluish green ; the claws palish. 



I only know the female of this species ; it differs from 

 (E. manicata in the wider head and thorax, shorter antennte, 

 and the elytra are scarcely narrowed behind. 



llah. Junsai and Sapporo. Two examples.

Somewhat deep blue ; the head rather wide, roughly, 

 densely and rather coarsely sculptured ; the thorax also 

 rather wide and sculptured like the head, with two transverse 

 impressions before the middle, very little constricted before 

 the base ; the elytra 4-costate, costa next the suture short, 

 scarcely reaching one third of the elytral length, thickly but 

 not quite so coarsely sculptured as the thorax, narrowed very

 legs, wholly cyaneous.
