508 SUPPLEMENT. 
CRYPTOGLOSSA (p. 738). 
4. Cryptoglossa granulifera. 
Black, slightly shining. Head with a few fine scattered punctures in front, smooth behind; antenne strongly 
flattened, the last joint truncate ; prothorax slightly narrower at the base than at the apex, broader than 
long, feebly, transversely convex, narrowed and sinuate at the sides behind, the anterior and hind angles 
prominent, subacute, the surface with very minute scattered punctures (only visible under a strong lens) ; 
elytra oval, the width of the prothorax at the base, seriate-punctate (coarsely in some specimens, finely 
and muricately in others), the punctures becoming obsolete on the apical declivity, the interstices (the 
first excepted) each with a series of distantly-placed granular elevations, which become a little coarser 
towards the sides; beneath opaque, almost impunctate ; prosternum very broadly horizontally produced, 
broadly rounded at the apex, the mesosternum sharply raised on either side and excavate in the middle 
for its reception ; mentum sparsely punctate, depressed in the middle in front. 
Length 18-20, breadth 8-10 millim. 
Hab. Mexico, Villa Lerdo in Durango (Hége). 
Five examples. Allied to C. mexicana and C. levis, but differing from both of 
them in having a row of distantly placed granular elevations on each of the elytral 
interstices (the first excepted); the elytral sculpture is variable, but the granular 
elevations are always distinct, becoming a little coarser towards the sides. 
CENTRIOPTERA (p. 74). 
Centrioptera caraboides (p. 74). 
To the localities given, add:—MeExico, Matamoros Izucar (Hége), Mochitlan -in 
Guerrero (Baron), Yautepec in Morelos (H. H. Smith). 
Sent in plenty from Matamoros Izucar. 
8. Centrioptera spiculosa. 
Moderately elongate, broad, black, slightly shining. Head very coarsely, sparsely, irregularly punctate ; 
antennz slightly flattened, the last joint pointed at the tip; prothorax broader than long, feebly, 
transversely convex, truncate at the base, rather deeply emarginate in front, about equal in width at the 
base and apex, the sides broadly rounded anteriorly, strongly sinuate behind, the anterior and hind 
angles produced and subacute, the surface very minutely, sparsely punctate—the disc smooth in some 
examples, more distinctly punctate in others,—the punctures coarser and always distinct at the sides ; 
elytra oblong-oval, slightly wider than the prothorax at the base, flattened on the disc, with series of 
transverse, shallow, muricate punctures, the interspaces (the first excepted) each with a regular series of 
not very closely placed fine spicule, which from the base to the apex become coarser towards the sides, 
those on the apical declivity not longer than the others, the humeri obtuse but usually distinct; beneath 
very coarsely punctate, the venter irregularly wrinkled and punctured; mentum very sparsely, coarsely 
punctate, with an interrupted median groove ; prosternum concave, strongly, horizontally produced, the 
mesosternum slightly excavate for its reception, the latter abruptly declivous in front; legs very coarsely 
punctate, the tibize with fine spicule, the hind femora denticulate within. 
Length 16-28, breadth 83-123 millim. 
Hab. Mexico, Villa Lerdo in Durango (Hége), San Felipe Sabinas in Coahuila
