PLATE LXII. 



The figure distinguished by a star * is the representation of 

 this insect in its natural size. 



FIG. II. 



BUPRESTIS AMCENA 



SPECIFIC CHARACTER 

 AND 

 SYNONYM. 



Wing-cases serrated : tip bidentated, cyaneous, striated; pos- 

 terior band somewhat arched and testaceous. 



BuPRESTis Amcena : elytris serratis, apice bidentatis, cyaneis, 

 striatis : fascia postica subarcuata testacea. Linn, 

 Trans, t. 12. 2. p. 381. n. 10. 



Rather smaller than the former, as will be perceived from the 

 figure distinguished by two stars J, which represents the insect of 

 the natural size. The colour in this specimen is rather green than 

 blue, but there is a supposed variety of this species that seems to 

 differ only in being of a smaller size, the colour of which is deep 

 blue.
