PHL@OPORA. 165 
2. Phleopora glabra. 
Nigra, nitida, subglabra, antennarum basi palpisque piceis, pedibus fusco-testaceis, elytris ad apicem pices- 
centibus; antennis sat crassis, articulis 5°-10™ transversis; prothorace sat elongato, basi transversim 
impresso. 
Long. 3 millim. 
Hab. Guatemata, Senahu in Vera Paz (Champion); Panama, Volcan de Chiriqui 
2500 to 4000 feet (Champion). 
This species is very closely allied to P. fenestrata ; but the antenne are not so thick, 
and the surface is less punctate, the head, thorax, and elytra being almost impunctate, 
and the hind body punctate in a distinct manner only at the base of the second and 
third segments; the elytra are only vaguely picescent behind; and the impression at 
the base of the thorax is remarkably distinct. 
Only a single individual has been found in each of the two localities. 
3. Phleopora alticola. (Tab. V. fig. 5.) 
Nigra, antennarum basi elytrisque fuscis, palpis pedibusque sordide testaceis; parce punctata, parum nitida ; 
antennis brevibus, articulis 5°-10™ transversis; prothorace magis longo quam lato, anterius rotundato ; 
abdomine fere impunctato. 
Long. 4—44 millim. 
Hab. Guatemana, Totonicapam 8500 to 10,500 feet (Champion). 
Antenne stout, fourth joint hardly so long as broad, fifth to tenth each rather strongly 
transverse. Head very sparingly punctate, with rounded hinder angles and narrow 
neck. Thorax longer than broad, rounded in front, scarcely narrowed behind, sparingly 
and indistinctly punctate, not shining, with a small, undivided, transverse impression at 
the base in the middle. Elytra elongate, a good deal longer than the thorax, sparingly 
punctate, of fuscous or picescent colour, the hind margin rather deeply sinuate on each 
side. Hind body slender and elongate, almost impunctate, even the basal transverse 
impressions being without distinct sculpture; the hind margin of the sixth segment 
yellowish, the seventh segment pitchy yellow. 
Seven individuals have been found. I see no sexual distinctions; the seventh dorsal 
plate is without granulations. 
4. Phleopora sinuata. 
Griseo-pubescens, anterius subopaca, abdomine subnitido, nigricans; antennis, palpis pedibusque testaceis, 
elytris abdominisque apice dilute rufis ; antennis crassiusculis, articulis 5°-10™ transversis; elytris dense 
punctatis, ad marginem posteriorem utrinque profunde sinuatis; abdomine basi crebre, apicem versus 
sparsius, punctato. 
Long. 4—43 millim. 
Hab. Panama, Volcan de Chiriqui 2000 to 3000 feet (Champion). 
Antenne pale, rather stout ; fourth joint quadrate, a good deal smaller than the fifth ;
