XYSTROPUS (p. 464). 
1. Xystropus californicus. 
Prostenus californicus, Horn, Trans. Am. Ent. Soc. ii. p. 138 (1868) *. 
Xystropus californicus, Casey, Ann. New York Acad. vi. p. 74. 
Xystropus fulgidus (Makl.), huj. op. p. 464, Tab. XXI. fig. 10. 
To the localities given, add :—NortH America, Martinez in California ?. 
As Dr. Horn remarks}, it is probable that this insect may have been imported into 
California. We have not seen it from north of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec. 
CTEISA (p. 465). 
Cteisa pedinoides (p. 465). 
To the localities given, add:—Mexico, Misantla (Lohr), Vera Cruz (Hége). 
Two specimens, differing from those from the State of Panama in having the thorax 
slightly rounded at the sides behind, with more obtuse hind angles. 
HYPORHAGUS (p. 472). 
Hyporhagus levepunctatus (p. 474). 
To the localities given, add:—GuateMaLa, Paraiso (Champion); Panama, Matachin 
(O. Schunke). 
I am indebted to M. René Oberthiir for the loan of the types of H. levepunctatus, 
H. lecontei, and H. fusciceps. Our insect agrees perfectly with H..lwvepunctatus 
(=Jlecontei). H. fusciceps has a more coarsely punctured thorax, and the punctures of 
the elytral series also coarser. 
5 (a). Hyporhagus nitidus. 
Broad, ovate, moderately convex, very shining, black, the anterior margin of the prothorax obscure ferruginous ; 
the antenne pitchy-brown, the legs piceous. Head densely, somewhat coarsely punctate; antenne with 
a moderately large, 3-jointed club ; prothorax transverse, rapidly narrowing from the base, the sides feebly 
rounded anteriorly and sharply margined, the surface minutely, rather closely punctate, the punctures 
still more minute on the middle of the disc, the disc with a smooth narrow median space behind; elytra 
narrowing from a little below the base, strongly flexuous at the sides before the middle, broadly and very 
sharply margined, with rows of very fine, rather closely placed punctures, which in the three rows next 
the suture at the base are replaced by very shallow, more distant, coarser impressions, the interstices 
perfectly flat, each with two or three irregular rows of very minute punctures; beneath black, the ventral 
surface closely, finely punctate, the metasternum with more minute, scattered punctures, the sides of the 
latter and of the first ventral segment obliquely and rather coarsely strigose ; mesosternal carina feebly 
arcuate in the middle; anterior tibia broadly concave along their upper face. 
Length 62, breadth 4 millim.
