136 Notes on Australian Coleoptera. 
each of the four angles, the two anterior ones rather oblique ; 
the elytra long, rather parallel, not broader than the thorax, 
rather convex, marginated laterally, with the axillary angles 
pointed ; they are bordered by a puncturated marginal line, 
and they present on the middle of their breadth a longitudi- 
nal series of five large and very deep rounded impressions ; 
these impressions do not appear to be very regular, my 
specimen having on one of its elytra two other similar on — 
the posterior part, placed between these and the sutura; the 
front tibie are armed with three strong teeth. 
Swan River. 
Carenum Westwoodii: length 94’; this sort is very nearly 
allied to Bonelli, in fact it is only distinguished by the 
elytra being a little narrower and rather strongly punctato- 
striated ; these striae are very strong near the sutura, and 
very feeble towards the external margin ; the colour is also 
much darker, and almost black on the head, the middle of 
the thorax, and the centre of the elytra. 
From Mount Kosciusko. 
Note.—It is impossible for me to find any difference 
between Bonellia and Viridipenne of Westwood, and I 
believe them to be very slight varieties of the same 
species. 
Carenum Splendens: length 104-12’; very nearly allied 
to Coruscum, and of the same form; body of a beautiful 
blue, with a purple tinge; thorax and elytra with a fine 
metallic green margin ; thorax with a strong longitudinal 
sulcate in its middle; elytra with seven very strongly 
punctured longitudinal striz, amongst which appears the- 
punctiform impression of the posterior part of the elytra ; 
along the margin are rows of very strong, oblong impres- 
sions; anterior legs tridentated externally ; inferior parts of 
the body, head, antenne, parts of the mouth, and legs, 
black. 
From Port Denison. 
Note.—In one of my two specimens the elytra have pos- 
teriorly a greenish tinge. This sort can only be taken for 
Coruscum, but is very distinct by its general colour, the 
much stronger striz of the elytra, &c. 
Carenum Smaragdulum (West. “Are. Ent.,” v. 1, p. 84): 
length 74’; of a beautiful metallic green, having a bluish 
tinge ; margin of the thorax and elytra much more brilliant 
and gilt; a marginal row of large elevated points around 
the elytra. -
