dium viridiacneis, fascia haud impressa postica virescente ornatis, fortius serratis; subtus obscure cyanea, sterno 
dense, abdomine raodiee punctato, articulis intermediis parce punctatis. Long. -27. 
Femina segmento ventrali ultimo truneato, angulis prominulis. 
One specimen, Missouri. Much narrower than the next, with the elytra entirely with¬ 
out costae, and the posterior fovea replaced by a transverse greenish band not at all im¬ 
pressed. 
25. C. a z u r e a , latiuscula, laete cyanea, vel viridi-cyanca, aequaliter fortiter punctata, thoracc brevi, lateribus 
rectis, postice incurvis, elytris costis obsoletis, fovea basali altera ad medium tertiaque postica impressis smpc viri.

Variat, capite thoraeeque purpureis, elytris obscure cyaneis, foveis subviridibus. 
Southern States. The variety approaches somewhat the description of C. t h o r a c i c a, 
but the thorax is not bright coppery, nor are the elytra black: the locality given by Fa- 
bricius is the Island of St. Thomas, and I do not know on what authority Laporte and Gory 
give it as North American. The sides of the body and legs are sometimes coppery purple. 
26. C. Harrisii, latiuscula, viridi-aenea, tboracc brevi punctato et rugoso, lateribus reetis postice incurvis, 
dorso canaliculato, elytris sat dense punctatis, costis fere obsoletis, fovea ad medium lata profunda, duabusque vagis 
oblique positis, subtiliter serrulatis, apice rotundatis; abdomine modice, sterno dense punctato. Long. -30. 
Mas segmento ventrali ultimo emarginato, tibiis anticis apice dilatatis. 
Femina segmento ventrali rotundato, apice subemarginato. 
Buprcstis Harrisii Hcntz, Journ. Acad. Nat. Sc. Phila. 5, 373, tab. 13, f. 1; Harris Ins. Inj. to Vege. 44. 
Massachusetts, in twigs of white pine. The whole sternum, the legs and the sides of 
the thorax of the male, are of a more brilliant green, and somewhat coppery. This spe¬ 
cies resembles closely the preceding, but the elytra are less coarsely punctured and more 
finely serrate, and the posterior impression is not a single fovea, but two indefinite ones 
placed obliquely. 
C. scitula Gory, and C. chlorocephala Gory seem to be closely allied to this 
species, but not sufficiently to enable me to suppress them into synonyms. 
27. C. a e n c o 1 a, latiuscula, obscure senea, aequaliter punctata, thorace brevi, lateribus postice incurvis, trans- 
versim rugoso, canaliculato, elytris costis obsoletis, impressione obliqua ante medium, alteraquo postica vagis, vix 
obsolete serratis, apice rotundatis, abdomine modice, sterno fortius punctato. Long. -26—-30. 
Mas segmento ultimo ventrali emarginato, cristaque parva transversa auteapicali iustructo; tibiis anticis apic e 
breviter dilatatis. 
Femina segmento ventrali ultimo rotundato, apice subemarginato.
