HETEROMERA. 515 
Elzodes dilaticollis (p. 83). 
Var. Smaller, the prothorax in some specimens less rounded at the sides; the elytra with minute scattered ~ 
punctures, which sometimes show a tendency to form strie.. The female much broader and less elongate 
than the male. ° 
Length 123-14 millim. 
Hab. Mexico, Real del Monte (Hége, Richardson), Toluca (Hége), Patzcuaro (Flohr). 
The type of £. dilaticollis is a male (not a female, as stated) and some of the Real 
del Monte examples of the same sex agree well with it, except as regards their much 
smaller size. . dilaticollis is closely allied to EL. alutacea and E. amaura. 
Elzodes longicollis (p. 84). 
To the Mexican localities given, add :—Chihuahua (1. Kerr), Santa Clara in Chi- 
huahua, Chihuahua city, Villa Lerdo in Durango, Durango city, Lagos, Aguas Calientes 
city, Saltillo in Coahuila (Hége). 
Var. The elytra with the suture broadly rufous. 
Hab. Santa Clara in Chihuahua (Hoge). 
The typical form has been sent in plenty by Herr Hoge; of the variety we have received 
four specimens, all females. 
Elzodes ponderosa (p. 84). 
This species should be placed in the same group with E. hepburni, E. forreri, &c., 
the basal joints of the anterior tarsi in the male being densely clothed with fine hairs 
‘beneath. 
Elzodes ruida (p. 84). 
To the Mexican localities given, add:—Amecameca in Morelos, Las Vigas, Cholula 
(Hoge). 
Elzodes glabricollis (p. 85). 
To the Mexican locality given, add :—Aguas Calientes city ({ége), Jaral in Guana- 
juato (Lohr). 
Mr. Flohr informs me that this species is not uncommon in the States of San Luis 
Potosi and Guanajuato. 
Elzodes angusta (p. 85). 
To the Mexican localities given, add :—Villa Lerdo in Durango, Zapotlan, Zimapan, 
Mexico city, San Andres Chalchicomula, Las Vigas (Hoge), Jaral (Flohr). 
Some of the smooth varieties of this species are scarcely separable from L. longi- 
collis, Lec.
