Hab. GuatTEMALa, Coatepeque 1300 feet (Champion). 
Antenne stout, not elongate; third joint short and stout, shorter than the second ; 
fourth and following joints transverse, but not strongly so. Head with distinct neck, 
nearly as broad as the thorax, very finely punctate. ‘Thorax slightly broader than long, 
alittle narrower than the elytra, a little narrowed behind, very finely punctulate. Elytra 
longer than the thorax, very finely and closely punctulate, not shining. Hind body 
only sparingly punctate ; the sixth segment, as well as the transverse impressions at the 
base of those preceding, impunctate. Legs stout. 
Only a single specimen has been found; though apparently very elosely allied to 
B. parallela, it is smaller and has shorter joints to the antenne.

than the thorax, densely and finely punctate, not shining. Hind body only sparingly 
punctate; the sixth segment, as well as the transverse depression at the base of 
those preceding, almost impunctate.

Naranjo is rather smaller, and has the antenne rather more slender than the other.
