PLATE XVII. Fig. 3. 
Cetonia velutina, Olivier , ii. pi. 12, fig. 114. 
The length of this species is between seven and 
eight lines. The head, thorax, and scutellura are 
velvet black, and unspotted. The elytra are like- 
wise velvet black, with the whole of the base red, 
except the region of the scutellum ; the outer mar- 
gin is of the latter colour from the shoulder to a 
little beyond the middle, where there is a broad 
band of red interrupted at the suture. The under 
parts and legs are shining black. It is found at the 
Cape of Good Hope. 
CETONIA AUSTRALASLE. 
PLATE XVII. Fig. 4. 
Schyzorkina Australasiae, Kirby. — Dejean's Catal. 
This curiously marked species is a native of New 
Holland. The surface is depressed, and remark- 
ably smooth and glossy. The anterior part of the 
head is yellow, with two small spots of black. The 
head from before the eyes, and the thorax, are 
black ; the latter having a stripe of yellow running 
along the sides and front, a line of the same down 
the middle, and an arched stripe across the base.
