HETEROMERA. 571 
One specimen. Much larger, broader, and more shining than J. levepunctatus ; 
the elytra more strongly flexuous at the sides, narrowing from a little below the base, 
and with very prominent, reflexed, marginal carina; the legs and antenne much darker 
in colour. It is nearly allied to H. steinheili, Oberth., from Colombia. 
9. Hyporhagus suturalis. (Tab. XXIII. fig. 22.) 
Elliptic, convex, very shining; rufous, the head, the mandibles at the tip, the elytra with a broad sutural 
stripe and a common transverse basal patch, and sometimes the prothorax in the middle at the base, more 
or less piceous, the anterior margin of the prothorax yellowish; the antenne rufous, the club sometimes 
paler; the legs and under surface rufo-testaceous. Head densely, rather coarsely punctate; antenne 
with a broad, 3-jointed club; prothorax transverse, rapidly narrowing from the base, the sides sharply 
margined and very feebly rounded, the surface sparsely, minutely punctate, the punctures almost oblite- 
rated towards the sides; elytra somewhat gibbous, declivous from about the basal third, feebly margined 
and moderately flexuous at the sides, the latter slightly rounded, with rows of exceedingly minute punc- 
tures, which are completely obliterated on the disc before the middle, become distinctly coarser towards 
the suture behind, and at the base are replaced by coarse shallow impressions, the interstices smooth and 
perfectly flat throughout; beneath almost smooth ; mesosternal carina broadly, feebly arcuate in the 
middle ; anterior tibie not grooved along their upper face. 
Length 43-54, breadth 23-37 millim. 
Hab. Panama, Bugaba (Champion). 
Numerous examples. Allied to H. clavicornis, Oberth., from Ega, but very much 
larger than that insect, and also differing from it in various details. 
10. Hyporhagus ferrugineus. (Tab. XXIII. fig. 25.) 
Elliptic, convex, rather narrow, shining, ferruginous, the prothorax of a yellower and more dilute colour; the 
antenne ferruginous, the legs and under surface rufo-testaceous. Head very densely, finely punctate ; 
antenne with a stout, 3-jointed club; prothorax rather elongate, not much broader than long, rapidly 
and obliquely narrowing from the base, the sides finely margined, the surface very finely, somewhat 
thickly punctate, the disc with a smooth narrow median space ; elytra a little rounded at the sides, the 
latter very finely margined and feebly flexuous, with rows of fine, distinct punctures, these punctures 
being obliterated on the disc before the middle, becoming evanescent towards the suture and apex, and 
replaced at the base by coarse, shallow impressions, the interstices smooth and perfectly flat; beneath 
almost smooth ; the mesosternal carina feebly arcuate at the middle ; tibie rather narrow, the anterior 
pair not grooved along their upper face. 
Length 23-33, breadth 13-1? millim. 
Hab. Panama, Volcan de Chiriqui 2000 to 3000 feet (Champion). 
Numerous examples. A very small, narrow species, the elytra entirely ferruginous, 
the thorax yellowish, the upper surface very shining, the legs rather slender. 
H. ferrugineus is of about the same length as H. clavicornis, but it is narrower than 
that insect. 
ASPATHINES (p. 475). 
Hyporhagus eneus, Thoms., from San Domingo, the type of which has been kindly 
communicated by M. René Oberthiir, belongs to this genus, and it only differs from
