Elvlia nigoboly punctuieJ, some of the punctures forming 

 double rows. Pygiiliura transversely rugose. Sternal process 

 short, but ratlier sharp. Metasternuni smooth in the middle 

 and coarsely punctured at the sides. Abdomen finely 

 punctured. 



(J. 01ive-j;reen, shining, with the abdomen and legs 

 redilish. Head unarmed behind. Clypeus somewhat exca- 

 vated, with the front margin curved, reflexed, and slightly 

 produced in the middle. Sides of the prothorax strongly 

 angulated in the middle and nearly straight in front and 

 behind. 



? . Purplish black, with abdomen and legs castaneous. 

 Form more elongate, with the upper surface more opaque. 

 Clypeus strongly excavated, with the front margin rather 

 strongly produced upwards in the middle and the vertex armed 

 with a horizontal process freely produced and truncated in 

 trout. Prothorax more convex and less contracted in front 

 than in the male. Legs stouter, with the front tibipe strongly 

 bidentate and all the tarsi shorter and thicker than in the 

 other sex. 



In the peculiar differences of form and colouring between 

 the two sexes this species shows relationship only to 

 //. vixdahilis, Hope, from which it is quite easily distin- 

 guished. It is larger and has less distinctly costate elytra, 

 besides which the sternal process, although short, is much 

 less so than in that species, and the clypeus is longer and 

 quite diflfereiitly shaped in both sexes. 



A male and female have formed part of the British Museum 

 collection for fifty years, but have not hitherto been distin- 

 guished from the allied species.
