be maintained ; the granulations are not particularly fine, but 

 are so extremely faint as to appear almost non-existent without 

 the use of a powerful lens. This species is probably near C. 

 micans, Baly (which I have not to my knowledge seen), but is 

 considerably larger and inter alia the puncturation of the sides 

 of its prothorax is not in the least variolose.

CHALCOLAMPUA. 



C. erernita, sp. nov. Ovalis ; picea, capite rufo, aiitennis palpis 

 pedibusque brunneo-testaoeis, prothorace elytrisque obscure 

 seneis ; prothorace duplo-punctulato ; elytris sat subtiliter 

 striatis, striis sat fortiter punctulatis, interstitiis subhevibus 

 vix planis. Long., 2| — 2-i 1. ; lat., 1| 1. 

 The third joint of the antennte is not much less than half again 

 as long as the fourth joint. The head is somewhat strongly but not 

 at all closely punctulate, and has a fovea on either side near the 

 front. The prothorax is two-thirds again as wide as long, and is 

 considerably narrowed forward ; it bears both tine and also con- 

 siderably larger punctures (both kinds sparsely distributed except 

 near the sides, where the larger punctures are much closer). The 

 evident (though not strong) convexity of the interstices associates 

 this species with C. Hursti, Blackb., from which it difiers inter 

 alia by the less strongly rounded sides and the narrower front of 

 its prothorax, as well as by its smaller size. Compared with, 

 C. acervata, Germ., (which is perhaps the same as cenea, Boisd.) 

 the antennse are much less stout, with the third joint proportion- 

 ally longer ; the prothorax is much more narrowed in front and 

 much less coarsely punctured ; the elytra are very siniilar, except 

 in the interstices not being quite tiat ; and the puncturation of 

 the under-surface does not appear to difi'er in any notable 

 manner.

CALOMELA. 



C. satelles, sp. nov. Oblonga ; pallide fulva, antennis apicem 

 versus nigris, elytris vitta discoidali plus minusve perspicua 

 violacea ornatis ; capite rugulose (qua,m C. coloratce, Germ., 

 multo minus crasse) punctulato ; prothorace quam longiori 

 plus quam duplo latiori, crasse fortiter (in medio quam 

 C. coloratw minus crebre) punctulato ; elytris fortiter (quam 

 C. vittatce, Baly, vix minus fortiter) punctulato-striatis. 

 Long., 2-I--3 1. ; lat., 1-i— If 1. 

 A very distinct species, easily distinguished from its congeners 

 with fulvous elytra bearing a vitta of metallic colour by the fol- 

 lowing characters in combination : — Colour entirely pale fulvous, 

 except the apical part of the antennae and the dusky-violaceous
