EUCONNUS. oT 
27. Kuconnus terminatus. 
Scydmenus terminatus, Schauf. Mon. p. 56°. 
Hab. Mexico, Teapa!. 
§ 2. Thorax at the base without impressions or channel. 
In this group the thorax is usually conical in form, but there are a few species in 
which it is almost oblong in shape, and in these a very careful examination will reveal 
a trace of an exceedingly small obsolete fovea on either side. These few species would 
perhaps find their true allies in group § 1. 
28. Euconnus incultus. (Tab. II. fig. 14.) 
Elongatus, angustulus, castaneus, pube elongata erecta sat dense vestitus; antennis elongatis, hirtellis, 
extrorsum crassioribus, haud clavatis, articulo ultimo majore; prothorace elongato, oblongo, ante basin 
obsolete transversim impresso. 
Long. 22 millim. 
Hab. Panama, Volcan de Chiriqui between 2500 and 4000 feet (Champion). 
Antenne with the first joint elongate ; joints 2 and 3 subequal; 4-7 slightly longer, 
subequal, each slightly broader than its predecessor; the eighth joint a little shorter 
and broader, scarcely longer than wide, the ninth quadrate, the tenth slightly shorter, 
feebly transverse; the terminal joint large, obtuse. Head short, the vertex simple and 
not elevated, and without dense pubescence. Thorax very elongate, only feebly 
narrowed in front, scarcely narrowed behind; the basal sulcus indistinct, but prolonged 
on to the flanks. Elytra elongate, with a dense, fine, long pubescence; shoulders 
feebly elevated. Legs elongate; tibie feebly bisinuate internally, the anterior pair 
with a slight mucro at the apex. | 
Unique. A very distinct and remarkable species. Although possessing a constriction 
of a very indistinct nature in front of the base of the thorax, E. incultus is better 
placed here than in group 9 1. 
29. Huconnus pubifer. (Tab. II. fig. 15.) 
Elongatus, angustulus, convexus, rufo-brunneus, pube elongata subflavescente jdense vestitus ; antennis crassi- 
usculis, clava quadri-articulata et minus gracili; prothorace oblongo; elytrorum humeris perparum 
elevatis. 
Long. 23 millim. 
Hab. Nicaragua, Granada (Sallé). 
Antenne rather stout; third joint small, scarcely half so large as the second; the 
fourth, fifth, and sixth joints similar, each a little larger than the third; the seventh 
joint slightly broader than the sixth, slightly transverse ; the eighth considerably larger, 
transverse; the ninth and tenth similar, rather larger than the eighth, transverse 
quadrate ; the terminal joint acuminate, rather long. Head rather long and narrow,
