Var. ? colore zeneo, statura minore. 
Easily distinguishable by the sculpture of its elytra; well 
defined rows of punctures commence on the base but do not run 
further back than about one-fourth or one-third the length of the 
elytra where their punctures diminish to about the same size as 
those of the interstices. The var. ? is from N.S. Wales.

A rather broad species, but much narrowed behind ; it is 
notable by the seriate punctures of its elytra being placed 
in distinct strie, the intervals between which are distinctly 
though only gently convex ; the metallic gloss on the elytra is not
