 gitudinaliter fortiter impresso, lateribua biimpressis ; elytris pi

1 fab. Java ( 3 ), Penang ($)(«/. C. Bowring, Esq.). 



A more slender species than any of the preceding, and rendered 

 distinct by the beautiful shining blue thorax and violet antennae. 

 The anterior angles of tho thorax are much deflcxed, and conse- 

 quently do not show the margin so distinctly ; the disk has not a 

 fine mesial line, but a deep longitudinal impression ; the lateral 

 fossa? are deep, but the oblique ridge which divides them is not so 

 well defined as in most of the species. 



d . Antennae rather slender. Elytra with scarcely any trace of 

 costa?. Penultimate segment of the abdomen with a deep incision. 



2 . Antennae very slightly dilated. Thorax more narrowed in 

 front. Elytra bicostate. 



The two examples in the collection arc from different localities, 

 but there is no doubt that they should be associated as sexes of the 

 same species. 



Calochromus longipennis.

Eorehead evenly convex, black, very finely pubescent, rostrum 

 about three times as broad as long; maxillary palpi very Btont. 

 Antenna; three quarters the length of the elytra, compressed; the 

 third joint about twice as long as broad, emarginate al the apex; 

 the fourth to ninth joints about equal in Length, the Lower anterior
