15. Agra multisetosa. (Tab. XII. fig. 19.) 



A. immersce (Klug) affinis. Setis longis erectis passim obsita, nigro-senea, elytris rubro-cupreis, basi marginibus 

 suturaque viridi-auratis j antennis rufo-piceis, articulis basi pallidioribus ; capite post oculos brevi, rotun- 

 dato, occipite medio fovea rotunda; thorace medio sat rotundato, antice gradatim angustato, dorso et 

 prosterno confuse subcrebre punctatis; elytris apice sinuato-truncatis, angulis suturali et extenon longe 

 dentatis, punctato-striatis, striis secunda et quarta punctis plurimis sextaque paucis magnis.

Hab. Panama, Bugaba (Champion). 



The setae on the body and legs are as numerous as in A. immersa, but a little longer 

 and more rigid ; they are blond in colour. The head is shorter behind the eyes than 



* 



in A. immersa, and the thorax shorter and conspicuously less narrowed, and not at all 



+ 



sinuate, towards the apex.

16. Agra laeticolor. 



Agra Iceticolor, Bates, Proc. Zool. Soc. 1878, p. 609 1 . 



"Ad sectionem A. femoratce (El.) pertinet. Gracilis, viridi-senea, antennis pedibusque rufis, femoribus basi 

 obscurioribus ; capite maxime elongato, lsevi, post oculos gradatim rotundato-angustato, juxta collum haud 

 tumidulo; thorace angusto, elongato -conico, sulcis 4 longitudinalibus, foveolata-punctatis, impressis, 

 quorum duobus dorsalibus antice carina abbreviata separatis; elytris ante medium sinuatim angustatis, 

 postice iterum dilatatis, apice utrinque flexuoso-truncatis, angulo exteriore subspinoso, suturali acute

C£ 



c? metasterno medio, femoribusque basi infra rufo-pilosis. 

 « Long. 7 lin." (15 miUim.). 







Hab. Nicaeagua, Chontales (Belt 1 ). 







The hairy metasternum and base of the thighs in the male show that this species 

 belongs really to the section A. cytherea, and not to that typified by A. femorata. The 

 sculpture of the elytra bears only a deceptive resemblance to various species of the 



A. femorata group ; it consists of punctured striae as in A. cytherea and allies ; but the 

 striae are frequently interrupted by elevation crossing from one interstice to another. 

 The head in this and the following species is excessively prolonged behind the eyes.

17. Agra elaina. (Tab. XII. fig. 20.) 



A. Iceticolori valde affinis, differt pedibus nigro-seneis antennisque nigro-piceis basi seneis. Gracilis et elongata, 



olivaceo-senea ; capite post oculos valde elongato, subovato, laevi; thorace angusto, sublineari, antice 



gradatim angustato, dorso lineatim grosse punctato, intra marginem a basi usque ad apicem sulcato ; 



elytris apice valde flexuoso-truncatis, angulis suturali et exteriori longe dentatis, striis hie illic lineolis
