of the lateral margin, united with a discal one at the anterior 
third; a juxta-sutural spot behind the middle; and two 
transverse, very sinuous, ante-apical bands, which are more 
or less confused. 
Chin piece indistinctly emarginate in front, finely mar- 
gined, separated from the prosternum by a deep, narrow 
groove. Prosternum convex, granulate, clothed with sparse 
hairs ; the prosternal process rather wide ; internal posterior 
angle of the posterior coxa acute. Abdomen finely punctate 
and clothed with sparse, whitish, recumbent pubescence. 
Disk of the last segment clothed with long recumbent hairs, 
emarginate at apex, separated from the pleural margin by a 
deep narrow groove, which is curved onto the disk on each 
side, the curve tending away from the basal angles. 
A specimen of this species (type, M. C. Z. no. 22,515) 
was captured at Yandina, Russell Islands, by Dr. W. M. 
Mann; a 9 specimen was captured at Marowa L., Fiji 
Islands, by Dr. Mann, and is now in my own collection. The 
9 differs from the by having the front reddish.

purplish tinge, the front and the antennae smaragdinous 
green, the anterior and median femora with a greenish tinge, 
each elytron ornamented with a poorly defined longitudinal 
pubescent vitta along the posterior quarter of the suture,

The whole surface clothed with a fine, greyish, recumbent 
pubescence. Beneath, cupreous, clothed with a very short, 
regular, greyish, recumbent pubescence, not concealing the 
ground. 
Head with the front rather wide, very feebly convex, 
vaguely wider basally than anteriorly, with lateral margins 
feebly sinuate; the vertex and front finely furrowed, the 
furrow reaching the epistoma but nearly obsolete in front. 
The color of the vertex sharply defined from that of the 
front. The front transversely impressed anteriorly, with a 
little pore at each side, separated from the epistoma by a
