This species must be carefully distinguished from the pre- 

 ceding, and also from cyaneus. Fab. From the latter it may be 

 known by the form of the thorax, which is much shorter, broader 

 at the base, and more angustate in front, and by the much finer 

 punctuation of the superior surface, which gives it a more glabrous 

 appearance.
