37. Lemophleus pauper, sp. n. 
Angustus, oblongus, pubescens, parum nitidus, ferrugineus ; prothorace utrinque unicarinato ; subtilissime 
punctatus, elytris obsolete striatis. 
Long. 13 millim. 
Hab. Mexico, Chilpancingo and Omilteme in Guerrero 4600 to 8000 feet 
(H. H. Smith). 
This insect is extremely close to the European L. ferrugineus, but is only half 
the size, and the antenne of the male are much more slender and hairy beneath. 
The punctuation is so minute as to be quite indefinite, and is still further obscured 
by the fine depressed pubescence. The thorax is longer than broad, a little 
narrowed behind; the hind angles are rectangular, the front angles not in the 
least prominent; the lateral stria is parallel with the side-margin and extends the 
whole length. The strie of the elytra are excessively fine. ‘The slender antenne 
are in the male two-thirds and in the female fully one-half the length of the body. 
Four specimens. 
88. Lemophleus dives, sp.n. (Tab. XVII. fig. 3, ¢.) 
Ferrugineus, elytris nigro-bimaculatis ; capite thoraceque densissime punctatis, hoc transverso, elytris multo 
angustiore, lateribus crenulatis, utrinque unicarinato; elytris ad apicem evidenter costatis, subtiliter 
punctatis. . 
Long. 27 millim. 
Hab. Paxama, Volcan de Chiriqui 4000 to 6000 feet (Champion). 
Antenne with the three terminal joints thicker than the others. Head narrow; 
eyes very prominent, free behind; epistome simply rounded in front, large but with 
its line of delimitation extremely obsolete. Thorax short, much narrower than the 
elytra, narrowed a little behind, the sides very distinctly undulate, the surface densely 
punctured, the carina near the sides very distinct. Elytra suboval, not deplanate, the 
tips extending beyond the body; very finely punctate, the intra-marginal carina 
distinct, but the other two coste of each only distinct at the tip. Legs rather long, 
the femora projecting beyond the sides of the body. 
We have only one pair of this distinct species. The antenne of the male are much 
longer than those of the female. 
39. Leemophleus minusculus. 
Lemophleus minusculus, Grouv. Ann. Soc. Ent. Fr. 1876, p. 502, t. 9. fig. 22°. 
Hab. Mexico, Teapa?. 
We have received nothing agreeing with this species. It is one of the smallest 
Lemophiei—only 2? millim. long—and possesses a very remarkable sculpture.
