Note. — pisciformis has the prothorax strongly 



bulging near base, with much denser and coarser 



punctures than thomsoni. 

 Pronotum bronze-green, underside green.

 Underside green, apices acuminate with oblique excision 



— trifasciata, C. and G. : apicalis, C. and G. : tacita, 



Kerr.
