Kawkareet in Tenasserim. One example. 



Differs from C. phaenoderus (Chaud.) of Bengal in its broader 

 form and brilliant golden-coppery head and thorax and also in the 

 broader and shorter dilated anterior tarsal joints of the c/' and 

 shining, sparsely punctured marginal interstices of the elytra.

 Bhamò. 



A single example , c/*, which notwithstanding a careful exa- 

 mination , 1 am unable to refer to any of the groups of Chau- 

 doir's monograph.

The series of well-preserved examples collected by Signor Fea 

 enables me to give a fuller description of this species than 

 the above-cited : 



C. Sinensi (Chaud.) proxime affinis , differt corpore supra 

 glabro nitido, capite thoraceque viridi-aeneis politis, etc. Elon- 

 gatus , convexus , glaber. Caput laete viridi-metallicum , sparse 

 punctulatum et rugulosum ; labrum truncatum. Thorax viridi- 

 aeneus, disco interdum splendide cupreo-aurato , sat elongatus, 

 antico magis quam postico angustatus, lateribus fere regulariter 

 et modico arcuatis , angulis anticis valde declivibus rotundatis , 

 posticis obtusis etsi distinctis, toto sparsim punctatus et trans- 

 versim strigulatus, foveis basalibus brevibus, profundis, grosse 

 punctatis. Elytra punctulato-striata ; interstitiis mediocriter con- 

 vexis, laevibus, prope apicem et latera (interstitio 9.°° et 8" di- 

 midio) punctatis punctis breviter setiferis ; dorso nigricantia , 

 lateribus (apicem versus excepto) basique viridi-aeneis , apice 

 macula oblonga marginali flava, epipleuris nigris. Antennae, 

 labrum, palpi et pedes rufo-testacea, tarsis panilo obscurioribus. 

 Subtus niger. Presternum antice utrinque parum punctatum 

 processu apice valde deflexo et marginato; mesosternum laeve; 

 metasternum lateribus punctatum, episternis quam latitudine an- 

 teriori paullulam longioribus extus marginatis. Antennae articulo
