[180.] This beautiful insect is related to Z. virens, but perfectly distinct. 
The body appears to be black, but that colour is, in most parts, nearly 
concealed by a thick and mostly long coat of brilliant golden hairs with . 
a very slight tint of green, where the coat is thin the body appears 
minutely punctured. Head subelongated, the neck exserted, subtri- 
angular; nose with only a few scattered whitish hairs; antennæ black, — 
third, fourth, and fifth joints rather slenderer and longer than the succeed-
