an oblong tubercle near apex and suture.

776. Colasposoma clavareaui, sp. n. 
Metallic green ; antennse and tarsi black or piceous ; beneath 
dark aeneous. 
6 • Head closely punctured and obliquely strigose throughout ; 
a small tubercle at the base of the clypeus ; labrum piceous ; 
antennae with the basal six joints purplish-blue, rest black, ter- 
minal tive strongly thickened, third and following two elongate, 
equal. Thorax twice as broad as long, sides moderately rounded, 
puncturation deep, punctures subremotely placed on the middle, 
more closely so at the sides, interstices at latter place slightly 
rugose. Scutellum finely punctured. Elytra very convex ; punc- 
tures not larger than those on the thorax, arranged in closely 
approximate rows on the inner disc, more irregularly so at the 
sides, interstices below shoulders slightly transversely rugose. 
Eemora and breast more or less metallic green.

Principally distinguished by the entirely strigose interstices of 
the head, the punctures visible on the vertex only, and the 
strongly and closely punctured thorax, colour of the antennae, &c. 
Eemale unknown. 
777. Colasposoma coromandeliana, sp. n. 
Metallic blue or green ; terminal joints of antennae and the 
tarsi black. 
<S . Head closely punctured on the vertex, longitudinately stri- 
gose above the eyes ; clypeus rugose ; labrum piceous ; antennae 
with basal joint metallic green or blue, following three or four 
joints purplish or piceous, rest black, short and stout, third and 
fourth equal. Thorax transversely convex, lateral margins rather 
strongly rounded in the middle ; surface closely and finely punc- 
tured, slightly more strongly so at the sides ; interstices smooth, 
impunctate, larger than the punctures themselves. Scutellum 
broad, metallic green, with a few punctures. Elytra scarcely more 
strongly punctured thau the thorax, punctures arranged in irre- 
gular rows, a very feeble depression below the base slightly more 
strongly punctured. Breast and legs metallic greenish or bluish, 
abdomen nearly black. Anterior tibiae widened and curved 
at apex. 
5 . Besides the usual non-dilated and straight tibiae differs from 
the B in the deeper elytral depression, which is strongly rugose,
