form part of the second collection sent home by Mr. Pratt, made 
in the richly-wooded hilly district of Chang Yang, at elevations of 
from 4000 to 6000 feet above the sea-level.

dilatata, supra eneo- vel violaceo-fusca, elytris aurato-fuscis ; 
labro antennisque basi enescenti-nigris, his articulis 3°-11" plus 
minusve fulvo-testaceis, mediocribus, thoracis basin longitudine 
attingentibus ; capite post oculos, $ rotundato-angustato, 2
