330 ME. G. LEWIS ON THE 



Briglit green above, bluish green beneatb. Tbe bead densely 

 little rugoselj punctate, face impressed, antennae nearly black ; 

 tbe tborax evenly and densely punctured, widest at tbe basal 

 angle, base bisinuous, disk witb a median black line bebind 

 tbe neck, witb two black spots on eacb side of it before tbe 

 base ; tbe scutellum green, cordate ; tbe elytra punctate-striate, 

 interstices densely rugose; posterior margin of scutellum, 

 two large spots over tbe bind coxae, four transverse spots 

 behind them and two otbers well before tbe apex black 

 or purple-black ; sometimes tbe apices are black and in these 

 specimens tbere is also a black spot at tbe base of tbe elytra 

 between tbe third and fourtb strise ; tbe legs cyaneous. 



This species is very similar to P.festioa, L., and P. virgata, 

 Motscb. 



Hah. Main island. Five examples from Kashiwagi on poles 

 of Cryptomeria japonica. 



Etjbtthieea tenuisteiata, sp. n. 



Cyaneo-viridis. E. micanti proxime afRnis ; scutello impunctato ; 

 elytris in mediis tenui-striatis. L. 20-26 raillim. 



Bright bluisb green, witb tborax and sides of tbe elytra 

 broadly golden. Tbe bead punctate, punctures rather large but 

 not closely set, two shallow impressions between the eyes, and 

 bebind tbe impressions a well-marked median stria; the tborax, 

 sides arched, feebly bisinuous bebind tbe neck, punctures less 

 dense tban those on tbe head, an indistinct linear space in tbe 

 middle sometimes smootb, scutellar fovea small but distinct 

 and prolonged anteriorly as a stria ; tbe scutellum conspicuously 

 uneven and impunctate, semicircular behind ; the elytra punctate- 

 striate, tbe striae nearest tbe suture being less impressed tban the 

 others, the interstices of tbe first being lightly punctulate, tbe 

 latter slightly rugose transversely, tbe apices are emarginate, 

 leaving the outer and sutural margins distinctly dentate. Tbe 

 under surface a bright green, witb tbe margins of tbe segments 

 and tip of tbe abdomen blue. 



The elytral strise are less deeply impressed tban in E. micans, 

 r. ; tbe apices of tbe elytra agree best witb those of E. scu- 

 tellaris, 01. ; in the last the scutellum is smootb. 



Sah. Main island. I have an example from Atami and 

 another from Chicbibu. There is a small specimen in the 

 Britisb Museum from Nikko.
