5. CiCINDELA ALBOLINEATA, n.sp. 



Coppery-bronze, densely punctate. Head scarcely concave 

 between the eyes, antennae nearly the length of the entire insect, 

 slender, the joints from the fourth slightly pubescent, the labrum. 

 white, more than twice as wide as the length, nearly truncate, and 

 with a few punctux'es in the middle. Thorax as long as broad, 

 slightly constricted near the base and apex, slightly rounded on 

 the sides and feebly canaliculate in the middle. Elytra much 

 broader than the thorax and thrice the length, widening a little 

 behind the shoulders and broadly rounded at the apex, with a 

 broad lateral margin, a sutural vitta on the apical half, and an 

 intermediate interrupted irregular vitta, white. The under surface 

 is of a brilliant copper colour, the thighs are albo-pilose at the 

 base, and of a reddish hue near the apex ; the apex of the tibiae 

 and the tarsi are slightly pubescent. 



Length, 5 lines. 



This and the next following species belong to the C. upsilon 

 group, characterized by the elytra more or less white, and by their 

 constantly frequenting sandy sea beaches. 



6. CiCINDELA TRIVITTATA, n.Sp. 



Of a rather redder bronze than C. albolineata, and not quite so 

 densely punctate. The head is rather more concave between 

 the eyes, the labrum more transverse, quite truncate and without 

 punctures. The thorax is a little broader than long, very little 

 rounded on the sides, constricted near the apex, and deeply 

 transversely marked near the base, with the posterior angles 

 protruding strongly in a lateral direction. The elytra are about 

 four times the length of the thorax and not much wider, and are 

 rounded at the apex, with a broad sutural vitta a narrow margin 

 excepted, a broader lateral margin, a broad twice interrupted 

 central vitta, the base and apex, white. The abdomen is dark 

 coppery red, each segment with a steel - blue base, the apical
