thorax fascia aniica utrinque attenuata et anguLata, linea posteriore 
iransversa abbreviata margineque postico nigris ; scutellum linea 
longitudinaii fasciisque duabus impunctatis, fascia la basali postice 
nigro marginata ; pectus et venter nigra, hujus latera Jlavo strigata. 
Var. — Thorax et scutellum nigro plagiata. 
Pale yellow, sinning, minutely punctured ; punctures black or brown ; 
a little longer than broad. Head black about the hind border ; sutures of 
the lobes brownish. Eyes red. Thorax with a broad impunctate space 
adjoining the fore border, separated from the punctured part by an 
abbreviated transverse black line, and including a black band which is 
angular and more slender at each end; an impunctate longitudinal line 
between the black line and the narrowly black hind border. Scutellum less 
thickly punctured about the tip, which is emarginate; a lougitudinal 
impunctate line and two narrow impunctate bands; first band basal, 
bordered on the hind side by an abbreviated transverse black line ; second 
at rather beyond the middle, slightly curved landward, abbreviated at each 
end. Pectus and under side of abdomen black, the latter with transverse 
yellow streaks on each side. Fore wings cinereous ; veins brown. Var. (3 . — 
A black patch on the thorax and another on the scutellum, both intersected 
by a longitudinal pale line. Length of the body 1 J line. 
Nearest to C. transversa, from which it may be distinguished by its 
smaller size and by the markings on the scutellum.

CoPTOSOMA STEENUA. 
Pallide lutea, nigro punctata ; caput maculis duabus posticis nigris 
angulatis ; thorax iineola longitudinaii antica, fascia tenui abbreviata 
undulata, linea transversa posteriore margineque postico nigris ; 
scutellum fascia basali glabra abbreviata nigro marginata ; pectus 
ventrisque discus nigra. 
Pale luteous, shining, minutely black-punctured, a little longer than 
broad. Head with two triangular black spots on the hind border contiguous 
to the middle lobe, which has brownish sutures, between it and the lateral 
lobes. Thorax narrowly black along the hind border and with a narrow 
transverse black line ; space between the latter and the fore border 
impunctate, including a longitudinal black line and an undulating abbre- 
viated transverse black line. Scutellum slightly notched at the tip, with 
an abbreviated impunctate black-bordered band at the base. Pectus and 
disk of the under side of the abdomen black. Length of the body 
1^ line. 
Very nearly allied to C. consobrina, from which it may especially be 
distinguished by the black stripe on the hinder part of the thorax, and by 
the markings at the base of the scutellum.
