T H E antennse of the Cerambyx are long, flender, and fetaceous: the thorax is 
oblong and rounded, and is in moft of the fpecies continued to a point at each

Cerambyx viridi-ccerulefcens antennis corpus fubce - 
quantibus. STfje tttttSft Mtttlt, 
The blue-green Cerambyx, with the antennee nearly 0£ CEJJOCOJU 7 &ZZt\%' 
equal to the body in length « 
This is a very large and beautiful Infed: it is all over of a beautiful, gloffy, blue- 
green colour, with a calf of fhining gold-yellow in it; the body is blue on the upper 
part, and the inner wings are black : the legs are of the fame biuifh-green colour with 
the reft, only fomewhat paler: the thorax is muc- onated or pointed at each extre¬ 
mity, and between the two points there are three litde tubercles near the wings, and 
three others ftill fmaller toward the head : the wings are oblong, of a fomewhat 
lanceolated figure, flexile, and have chree longitudinal and fomewhat elevated ribs on 
them: the antennse are nearly of the length of the body ; they are compofed of a 
number of joints which grow fmaller, as they approach the extremity, the contrary of 
.which proportion is the ufual cafe. 
It is found in old willows, but not very frequently; it diffufes a mofl agreeable

Infeds. Ray calls it Scarabseus Capricornus didus major viridis odoratus ; Lifter, Sea- 
rabaeus magnus fuaviter oiens, and Goedart, Cerambyx tertius.
