CARCINOPS. 211 
8. Carcinops fumosa, sp. n. (Tab. V. fig. 20.) 
Ovalis, parum convexa, nigro-picea, nitida ; fronte parce punctulata, punctis grossis intermixtis, stria 
integra; pronoto stria haud interrupta, undique punctulato, lateribus sparsim punctatis; elytris apice 
parce punctatis, striis validis, subcrenatis, parallelis, 1’—4" integris, 5* parum, suturali amplius, abbreviatis ; 
propygidio pygidioque parum dense subocellato-punctatis ; tibiis anticis bidentatis. Long. 2 millim. 
Hab. GuatEMALA, near the city (Champion). 
This species is very closely allied to C. fumata, Mars., from Brazil: in the last-named 
insect the mesosternal stria is “subrecta,” in C. fumosa it is distinctly sinuate. The 
large punctuation of the forehead and pygidium in C. jfumosa are also good specific 
differences. . lanista, Mars., is much more coarsely punctured on the forehead than 
in this species.

Hister corticalis, Lec. Ann. Lyc. N. York, v. p. 163°.

Hab. Norvu America, Colorado ?, Gila River 2.—Muxtco, Cordova (Sallé, Hoge), 
Tehuantepec (Héye).—ConomB1!, Cartagena?; VENEZUELA, Caracas 2, 
This insect is stated to be found in rotten masses of Agave. 
10. Carcinops collaris. 
Carcinops collaris, Mars. Monogr. in Ann. Soc. Ent. Fr. 1862, p. 13°, and 1861, t. 15. no. xxiv. 
fig. 13. 
Hab. Mexico !, Cordova (Sallé); Guaremana, near the city, San Lucas (Champion). 
11. Carcinops tantilla. 
Carcinops tantillus, Mars. Monogr. in Ann. Soc. Ent. Fr. 1855, p. 93, t. 8. no. xxii. fig. 6%. 
Carcinops tristis, Mars. loc. cit. 1862, p. 11. 
Hab. Mexico, Cordova, Orizaba (Sailé), Jalapa, Oaxaca, Las Vigas ({ége); Britisn 
Honpvras, Belize, R. Hondo, R. Sarstoon (Blancaneaux); GUATEMALA, Chacoj, Cahabon 
(Champion); Nicaragua, Chontales (Janson).— VENEZUELA, Caracas *. 
This species was first recorded from Caracas!, but it extends northwards to Mexico, 
and is evidently a common and widely distributed insect. 
12. Carcinops misella. 
Carcinops misellus, Mars. Monogr. in Ann. Soc. Ent. Fr. 1855, p. 95, t. 8. no. xxi. fig. 8°.
