In size between P. ferrugJnea and P. regalis ; above, 

 including upperside of legs, it is of a fine duli, dark 

 velvety giecn, which, when riibbed, displays beneath a 

 mctalUc base, as in niany of the Cetonidae, such as Go- 

 liathus torquatus ; <^he edges of the nasus are metallic. 

 The hcad and thorax above are thickly and distinctly 

 poroso-punctate; theie is an indication of a gellowish- 

 white dot near each front angle of tlie thorax (whieh dot 

 may vary in size in other speeimeas); the elytra have 

 four dots passing into short transverse streaks on each 

 side, and a small spot near the suture, about the middle, 

 and a short white streak midway between the middle and 

 the spine ; three dots between that and the spine, which 

 is longer and much more distinct than on the sides of 

 elytra, transversely pitted in raany shallow short waves ; 

 general surface punctured, the punctnres chiefly in Striae. 

 Head small, slightly ridged on sides in front of eyes, 

 slightly narrower in front and' rather deeply grooved 

 behind front margin. Under side and legs metallic green, 

 femora aod niesothorax acuducted, the latter with two or 

 three patches of isabella pilc; abdomen irregularly punc- 

 tured, sraooth, with eight transverse patches of isabella 

 pile on each side in double columns. Halrs on tibiae 

 ruious; fore edge of front tibiae and tarsi of all the legs 

 metallic green. Habit. Philippine Islands (Coli. Cumming). 

 NB. The figures are of the nature size. This is alluded to 

 in Dr. Schaum's second liste of Cetonidae, and is quoted 

 under the above name.*^ White.
