86 KEY. T. A. MARSHALL — COEYIN^ODIKORUM RECEXSIO. 



busque niger; thorace fortissime irregulariter, elytris modice vix 

 striatim pimctatis ; vertice impresso, froiite rugosa. 



Long. 4 lin. ; lat. hum. Ij lin. 



Head coarsely and thickly punctured, irregularly impressed between the 

 eyes, below which impression the surface becomes transversely rugose. 

 Vertex with an ovate impression. Thorax and elytra very shining, 

 the former coarsely punctured, the punctures less distinct towards 

 the antero-lateral margins : the elytra less coarsely punctured, the 

 punctures equidistant, and therefore forming only obscure striae, ex- 

 cept near the suture, where a single stria is isolated. Anterior tibiae 

 elongate, curred downwards and inwards. Antennae and tarsi very 

 robust. 



TIab. not indicated.

 narum clava 5-artic\ilata. Tibiae intermediae in S plerumque 

 extus ante apicem sinuata?. Unguicalse appendiculatae s.

 " but separated by the appcndiculated claws and 5-jointed 

 club of the antennae." Baly.

The typical colour is bright metallic green. Tor the following 

 description of a fine variety (at first supposed by me to be dis- 

 tinct) I am indebted to the kindness of the Eev. H. Clark. 



C. subelongatus, metallico-aureus, ad latera sensim purpureas, juxta 

 suturam et ad humeros vii'idi-aureus ; capite punctato, ad medium 

 longitudinaliter depresso, nigro-cyaneo j thorace sparsim irregulariter 

 punctato; elytris crebre fortiter punctato- striatis; corpora subtus 

 pedibusque fusco-aeneis. 



Long. 4i lin. ; lat. hum. 2 lin. 



Of a brilliant metallic gold colour, the sides tinged with purple, and the 

 upper part with greenish gold ; in form parallel and sufficiently elon- 

 gate. Head thickly punctate, purplish copper-coloured, with a me- 

 dial longitudinal dark-blue depression. Thorax subcylindrical, short, 

 sparingly and very irregularly punctate. Scutellum deep purple, 

 impunctate. Elytra subparallel, with prominent shoulders ; their 

 surface thickly punctate-striate (the punctures coarse and irregular, 

 so that the striations are somewhat indefinite). Legs and underside 

 dark greenish, metallic. The antennae in the specimen described are 

 unfortunately absent.
