Cle latesignata Lec. var. tenuicineta Schaupp. A Q specimen from 
Mr. H. Edwards is highly interesting as connecting to a certain ex- 
tent atesignata Lec., generosa De}., and vulgaris Say. The specimen in 
question comes from Colorado and agrees with /atesignata Lec. in the 
shape of head, thorax and elytra, with vu/guris Say in the exact form and 
direction of the humeral lunule and middle band, with generosa Dej., in 
the shape of the broad apical lunule and in having the markings connect- 
ed at the margin in precisely the same form as the typical generosa, 
although the connecting line is much narrower, The specimen is peculiar 
and might have been with nearly the same propriety placed as a variety 
of either of the above three species, but the general form of the insect is 
most nearly like /atesigna/a Lec., and I have therefore referred it as a 
variety of that species. The markings are much indented as shown in the 
adjoining figure. 
Cic. lunalonga n. spec. Color above blackish bronze, beneath, head 
and thorax brilliant green,abdomen metallic blue, slightly hairy on the 
sternum. Head glabrous, granulate, striate between the eyes; labial 
palpi pale with last joint dark; labrum short with a distinct tooth at 
middle; thorax glabrous nearly quadrate, granulate very slightly narrowed 
behind, impressions very deep, greenish bronze; elytra subparallel, granu- 
late, finely punctured with a row of green fovez near the suture and 
several scattered foveze near the humeri; tip of elytra separately rounded, 
_ short sutura] spine. The markings consist of a slender, very long humeral 
lunule running obliquely to the middle of the elytra reaching nearly the 
suture, dilated at tip; middle band not reaching the margin, arising from 
a triangular spot, bent rectangularly at middle, descending somewhat ob- 
liquely and hooked at tip; the transverse portion is heavy but the descen- 
ding line short and slender; apical lunule broad, broadly indented 
anteriorly and less to posteriorly. Legs green bronze, stout, moderately long. 
Occurs in Sierra Nevada, Cal. One Q kindly given me by Mr. 
H. Edwards Length 9.5 mm. 
This species belongs to the second division, group four, and is allied 
to cinctipennis, from which it differs by having the labrum one toothed 
and the markings quite different. 
I have received from Mr, A. S. Fuller a fine variation of obsolefa Say, 
black with six small round dots, a humeral, a submarginal at middle and 
an apical, he also gave me two beautiful variations of splendida, one entire 
ly black, the other entirely green. All these specimens are from N. Mex.
