broad again as long, sides rounded and widened at the middle, 
with shallow’ but distinct transverse depression anteriorly ; surface 
rather convex, punctured and pubescent like the head. Scutellum 
subquadrate, pun t: red and pubescent. Elytra oblong, narrowed 
at the apex, shoulders prominent and acute ; surface finely and 
closely rugose-punctate, clothed with silvery pubescence. Under- 
side greenish-aeneous, very sparingly punctured and pubescent; 
femora rather elongate with an acute tooth.

The amount of fulvous on the tibiae is variable ; sometimes 
this colour is bright and well distributed, at other times it is 
confined more to the sides or beneath. The species differs from 
E. orientalis, Jac. in the much less strongly widened and convex 
thorax and shorter shape of the latter. 
761. Eubracliis andamanensis, sp. n. 
Dark aeneous, finely pubescent; basal six joints of the antennae 
fulvous. 
Head finely longitudinally strigose and sparingly punctured ; 
clypeus deeply subtriangularly emarginate ; labrum fulvous; 
antennae scarcely extending to base of thorax, basal joint thick 
and short, second scarcely shorter but less thick, following two 
joints short and more slender, terminal five strongly thickened. 
Thorax scarcely half as broad again as long, sides rounded but 
scarcely widened ; surface with obsolete transverse sulcus near the 
anterior margin, very closely and evenly punctured ; interstices 
not wrinkled, finely pubescent. Scutellum broadly subquadrate, 
nearly smooth. Elytra about twice as long as the thorax, slightly 
depressed below the base ; puncturation stronger than that on the 
thorax, very close, finer and more remote towards the apex ; inter- 
stices finely wrinkled at base ; pubescence short and erect, silvery 
in colour. Femora dark aeneous, robust, with a strong tooth 
beneath. 
Length 4 mm. 
Hah. Andamans (Coll. Jacoby). 
Differs from E. rufotibialis , Jac. in the finely strigose head, 
the strigae directed towards the centre, in the entirely dark 
aeneous legs and finely rugose basal portion of the elytra. The 
type specimen seems to be a female.
