446 MR. M. JACOBY ON NEW [Mar. 15, 



species, as the habitat of the type alone is known to me, the other 

 three being without locality. 



15. COLASPOSOMA ROBUSTUM, Sp. nOV. 



Subquadrate-oblong, robust. Metallic green or blue ; above me- 

 tallic green, rather finely punctured, suture and a transverse short 

 band below the base of the elytra purplish. 



Var. Above entirely metallic green. 



Length 4-5 lines. 



Hab. India, Neilgherries. 



Head rather finely and remotely punctured, the front swollen, 

 with a deep impression between the eyes ; upper part of the epistome 

 longitudinally rugose. Labrum and palpi black. Antennae of half 

 the length of the body, the six lower joints dark blue, the rest black, 

 opaque. Thorax transversely convex, its sides rounded ; surface not 

 closely, but distinctly punctured, the punctures not stronger than 

 those of the head. Scutellum broad, subquadrate. Elytra wider 

 at the base than the thorax, subquadrate, convex, transversely im- 

 pressed below the basilar space, where the punctuation is deep and 

 strong, and more or less deeply transversely rugose ; rest of the sur- 

 face punctured like the thorax, but more finely towards the apex. 

 Underside and legs metallic green or blue. 



Six specimens are contained in my collection. 



The large size and rather fine punctuation distinguish the present 

 species from the others, especially from C. pretiosum, Baly, from 

 which it is moreover separated by the uniform colour of the tarsi 

 and legs and the want of the tooth of the anterior femora. 



Colasposoma sellalum, Baly (1878) = C barbatum, Harold (1879). 



Colasposoma instabile, Harold ()877)=C. varians, Baly (1878). 



Genus Eubrachys, Dej. 



16. Eubrachys apicalis, sp. nov. 



Oblong, subdepressed. Metallic green, sides of the thorax and part 

 of the head black ; above rugose, posterior part of the elytra 

 striate-punctate, black ; legs cupreous, femora acutely dentate. 



Length 2J lines. 



Hab. Cameroons. 



Head elongate, closely rugose punctate, the vertex strigose, black- 

 ish, lower part cupreous, anterior margin of the epistome distinctly 

 concave, apex of jaws black. Antennae gradually widened towards 

 the apex, black, basal joint cupreous. Thorax cylindrical, scarcely 

 wider at the middle, metallic green at the disk, sides black, surface 

 closely punctate and transversely rugose. Scutellum subpeutagonal, 

 metallic green. Elytra much wider at the base than the thorax, 

 narrowed towards the apex, anterior portion metallic green, closely 

 covered with distinct granulations, apical portion deeply puuctate- 

 striate, black, somewhat shining, extreme apex finely pubescent. 

 Underside closely pubescent, legs elongate, rugose-punctate, cu- 

 preous, all the femora with an acute long tooth. Apical margin of 

 the anterior epistome concave.
