COLEOPTERA. 131 
Here, the body is cylindrical, and the thorax as wide as the abdo- 
men throughout. 
CryprocePHaLus, Geoff. 
Where the antenne and palpi are the same thickness everywhere. 
C. sericeus; Chrysomela sericea, L.; Oliv., Col., VI, 96, i, 5. 
Three lines in length, and of a golden-green; antenne black, 
with a green base. Very common on the semiflosculosz *. 
Cuoracus, Airb. 
Where the antennz are terminated by three thicker joints forming 
a club, and the palpi are attenuated at the extremity fT. 
There, the body is narrowed anteriorly and is almost ovoid. 
The five last joints of the antennz are frequently larger, more or 
less compressed, and more or less dilated and serrated. The max- 
illary palpi are thicker at their extremity or almost terminated by an 
ovoid club, formed either by the last joint, or by that and the preced- 
ing one. 
Evuryorr, Dalm. 
Where the mandibles are very strong, and where the second joint 
of the antennz is manifestly longer than the third t. 
Evumo.pus, [Wt kig. Fab. 
Where the mandibles are of the ordinary size, and the second joint 
of the antenne is shorter than the following one. 
E. vitis, Fab.; Panz., Faun. Insect. Germ., LXXXIX, 12. 
Black, pubescent ; elytra, base of the antenne, and the legs red- 
dish-brown; very injurious to the Vine. 
This subgenus, through the Colaspes, and by an almost insensible 
transition, is connected with the genus 
CHRYSOMELA, 
When the body is usually ovoid or nearly oval, and the head salient, 
projecting, or simply inclined; where the antennz are simple, about 
half the length of the body, and most frequently granose and insensi- 
bly enlarged towards the extremity. 
Some, in which the body is always ovoid or oval and provided with 
wings, and the palpi terminate in a point, approach the Eumolpi, and 
are distinguished from the other following Chrysomeline by their 
filiform antennee, which are longer than the half of the body, and 
consist of elongated and almost cylindrical joints, the eleventh or last 
of which is terminated by an appendix or false joint, the length of 
which is almost equal to that of the half of the preceding portion of 
that joint. Such are 
Couaspis, Fab., 
Where there is no sternal projection §.
