S. 5-puslulatiis Wiedm. varies much in the number and form 

 of the elytral spots and the amount of punctuation of tlie Ijase 

 of the thorax ; examples from the same locality in Bengal vary. 

 The present may be therefore only a further variety of the 

 species ; but it differs from all others in the blue colour of its 

 upper surface.

Compared witli S. marginatus (Dej.) the thorax is much mora 

 rounded and dilated before the middle, a little more narrowed 

 behind and with more distinct hind angles.

 Agrees precisely with Ceylon specimens with which I have 

 compared it.
