The claw-joint of each foot is encircled by a few very long and fine bristles, longer than the claws. J , The inner front claw is very broadly dilated and sharply angulated beneath.

Testaceous, suffused with a metallic green lustre, and \\\t\\ the head (except the front part of the clypeus), a large irregular discoidal patch upon the pronotuni (sometimes resolved into two by a median line), the pygidium, or a patch on each side of it, and parts of the lower surface, dark green or coppery. The legs are pale, with the tarsi red and the hind tibise coppery red. It is elongate-oval and rather depressed, with very long and slender legs, not very shining above, the entire surface being closely punctured, and there is only a very scanty clothing of minute hairs beneath. The clypeus is narrow, semi-elliptical in shape and densely rugose, and the forehead is densely punctured. The pronotum and scutellum are rather closely punctured, with the sides of the former rounded, all the angles rather sharp and the base finely margined. The elytra bear each a sutural and three discoidal costae, broad and well- elevated in the middle, but disa
