44 Mr. G. J. Arrow on the 



sat elongato, parum convexo, clypeo subtilifcer ruguloso, fronte 

 crebre punctato, pronoto parce minute punctato, postice lawigato : 

 scutello fere loevi, apice rotundato ; elytris striis dorsalibus 5 

 profunde impressis, confluenter punctatis, iaterstitiis convexis ; 

 pygidio grosse transversim strigato, basi maculis duabus grossis 

 setosis lineisque setarum lateralibus fere ad apicem ductis ornato ; 

 eegmentis abdominalibus lateraliter transversim bisectis et bi- 

 seriatim setosis ; mesosterno modice producto. 



Reddish testaceous, with the head (except the clypeus), 

 the middle of the pronotum, the scutellum, and parts of the 

 lower surface dark green, entirely suffused with a metallic- 

 green lustre, except upon the elytra, which have usually 

 more or less distinct longitudinal dark lines. 



It is elongate in shape and not very convex. The clypeus 

 is very minutely rugulose and the rest of the head distinctly 

 punctured. The pronotum is very finely and sparingly 

 punctured, with the middle of the basal part quite smooth. 

 The scutellum bears a few very minute punctures and its 

 apex is rounded. The elytra have each five very deep equi- 

 distant dorsal striae bearing confluent punctures at the 

 bottom, and the intervals are smooth and convex. The 

 pygidium is coarsely transversely striolated and bears two 

 large white hairy patches at the base and a line of irregular 

 hairs on each side almost meeting at the apex. The ventral 

 segments are divided by transverse carinas at the sides a':d 

 doubly fringed. The mesosternum is moderately produced. 



Length 9-12 b mm. ; breadth 5-7 mm.

This is a compact convex species, with the posterior part 

 of the head, the disc of the pronotum, and the scutellum very
