Ha. confinis. Kirbi/ MSS.—Steph. Catal p. 31. No. 292. 



Differs from the last in having the legs and antennae deep pitchy-blacky the 

 colour less briUiant^ and usually greenish-brass or blue, rarely bright green, 

 the suture generally fuscescent, the elytra finely striated, and the outer in- 

 terstices rather strongly punctated.

 busgue rufis, thorace postice paulo attenuato, elytris tenue striatis, interstitio

Ha. seneopiceus. Kirby MSS.—Steph. Catal. p. SI. No. 29S. 



Differs from Ha. aeneus in being more elongate, with the thorax more attenuated 

 posteriorly; the colour above usually rather briUiant pitchy-brass: the elytra 

 rather granulated in each sex, and the outer interstice alone punctate: the 

 dentation at the apex not very deep. 



Found, with the foregoing, near London, &c. 



Sp. 46. concinnus. Gracilis, subcylindricus, ceneo-niger, supra viridi-cupreus, 

 thorace postice subattenuato, punctata, utringue foveold unicd, antennis pedi- 

 busgue rufo-piceis. (Long. corp. 4 — 5 lin.) 



Ha. concinnus mihi. — Steph. Catal. Appendix. 



More cylindric than Ha. seneus or the others of this section ; the thorax slightly 

 attenuated behind, punctate transversely at the base, with a rugose fovea at 

 each angle : the elytra faintly striated, with the exterior interstices more or less 

 punctulate : the legs and antennae are pitchy-red. 



This is the Ha. gracilis of Wilkins' MSS., which name I have discarded, from 

 its having been used elsewhere. 



Found, with the preceding, near London and in Norfolk. 



Sp. 47. dentatus. Brevis, latus, depressus, supra ceneo-piceus, antennis pedibusgue 

 piceo-rufis, thorace postice subrugoso utringue foveold unicd, elytrorum apice 

 profunde excise. (Long. corp. 4^ — 5 hn.) 



Ha. dentatus. Kirby MSS.—Steph. Catal. p. 32. No. 294. 



Broader, shorter, and more depressed than Ha. aeneus ; the thorax rather rugose 

 at the base, with a thickly punctate fovea on each side, and a very faint dorsal 

 line : elytra rather deeply striated, the interstices a httle convex, the two outer 

 thickly punctulate, the apex with a deep excision : the antennae and legs are 

 pitchy-red : the colour above is usually of a deep pitchy-brass, sometimes 

 slightly tinted with green or copper. 



Occasionally found near London, and in Suffolk.
