This species is very closely allied to several otlier Sumatran 

 Colaspoides , notably C. viridimargiimlus, C. insignis Baly and 

 C. nigritarsis, Jac. , but differs from either in one or other de- 

 tails , partly in the unarmed femora and partly in tlie diffe- 

 rently punctured head and thorax and the dark fulvous legs.
