G. R. Crotch, Cat. Brit. Col. ed. 2. 

 Mr. Crotch adopts the view taken by recent continental 

 authors as to the specific distinction between this insect and 

 P. chiysocephala, Linn., of which it certainly appears to be 

 nothing but a mere colour-variety.

 This insect, the " Psylliodes 6 sp. — ?" of Waterhouse's 

 Catalogue, was discovered by Mr. T. V. WoUaston in Lundy 

 Island. 



It has a brassy-green head and thorax, shining reddish- 

 brown elytra, brassy-green legs, with the hind femora pale 

 at the base, and testaceous antennae. Its colour, smaller

 gradually attenuate behind.

1844, 52 ; Rev. A. Matthews, Ent. Mo. Mag. vol. 

 ii, p. 242. 



Mr. Matthews has detected two examples of this species

It appears to belong to the same section as T. dispar^ 

 having the thorax short, and the posterior angles scarcely
