Violet-black ; elytra copper or golden-green ; each with 
punctured stria; the intervals cbsoletely intersected 
transversely, the fourth, eighth, and twelfth from the 
suture, with a few impressed dots. 
Inhabits Europe. In Britain it is rare, having been taken 
two or three times near Norwich, twice in Ireland, and 
once near Dartmouth, in Devonshire. It has probably also 
been taken near London, in Coomb-wood ; but this has 
not been clearly ascertained to have been the case. 
It differs from C. Scrutator in colour, in being more con- 
vex, and in having a longer thorax.
