Var. imperfecta Lec. Brown, beneath dark blue; elytra with a humer- 
al lunule descending obliquely, an oblique, subsinuate stripe at 
the middle, distant from the margin, and nearly descending to the a- 
pex, and an apical lunule. In some specimens the posterior portion 
of the humeral lunule is connected with the antelior portion of the 
middle stripe. Occurs in Cal. Or. Nev, Length 11-12.5 mm.

Rectilatera Chaud. Dark brown, beneath blue; head glabrous, fine- 
ly granulate; labrum one toothed; thorax quadrate alutaceous, obso- 
letely transversely rugose; elytra not deeply punctured, very indistinct 
subsutural foveze: with 5 round white dots, one humeral, three sub-mar- 
ginal and 1 discal: the species is quite constant in its markings, and re- 
markable for having the apical lunule of the elytra represented only by 
a large submarginal dot, while the terminal part, or lunule proper, is 
entirely wanting. Occurs in Texas and Mexico. Length 13-13.5 m.

Tenuisignata Lec. Brown bronze, beneath metallic green; head 
glabrous, finely granulate, labrum one-toothed; thorax short, sub- 
cylindric, finely granulate, hairy; elytra punctate, sparsely granulate 
near base; with long slender markings, humeral lunule curved, mid- 
dle band slightly bent, oblique, connected with a white marginal line,

Punctulata Oliv. Dark brown or black, beneath blue; head and thorax 
somewhat bronzed, finely granulate-rugose: labrum one-toothed;  ely- 
tra oblong, strongly and densely punctured with a row of large bluish 
foveze near the suture with several small white dots, four marginal and 
two discoidal, and a complete apical lunule, inflected anteriorly, form- 
ing there a sharp right angle. Legs long and slender. There are 
some variations in the southern States which have dots nearly connect- 
ed by faint hair-lines and thus show the shape of the humeral lunule 
and middie fascia. Occurs from Maine to Texas, and New 
Mexico. Length 12.5-15 mm., on dry roads or sandy spots, fre- 
quently seen in the streets of cities.
