100 HETEROMERA. 
Hab. Guatemata, El Reposo 800 feet (Champion) ; Panama, Volcan de Chiriqui 3000 
feet (Champion). 
Two examples only. In coloration this insect resembles Hurypus rubens, Kirby. 
An allied species is found at Parana *. 
8. Conomorphus gracilicornis. (Tab. V. fig. 4.) 
Subcylindrical, narrow, scarcely wider behind, a little flattened above, castaneous, the prothorax and elytra 
much stained with piceous, the suture of the latter with a common longitudinal black patch near the 
apex, the surface sparsely pubescent and slightly shining, the prothorax opaque. Head very large, very 
closely and not very finely punctured, the eyes black and rather narrowly separated, the palpi testaceous ; 
antenne flavous, very slender, comparatively long, extending considerably beyond the base of the pro- 
thorax, joints 4-10 all much longer than broad and each gradually widening towards their apex, 7-10 
about equal in length, 11 ovate, very much longer than 10, and almost pointed; prothorax subquadrate, 
as long as broad, the disc a little flattened and unimpressed, the sides immarginate, the base with a well- 
defined groove connecting the short basal fovesx, the surface very densely and subrugulosely punctured ; 
elytra subparallel, scarcely wider at the middle than at the base, very closely and finely punctured ; beneath 
piceous, the venter piceo-castaneous, very closely punctured; legs testaceous, the femora stained with 
piceous. 
Length 34 millim. 
Hab.. Guatemata, San Juan in Vera Paz 2000 feet (Champion). 
One example only. This small narrow species is somewhat doubtfully included in 
Conomorphus; it agrees, however, in its chief characters with the other members of 
the genus, from which it differs in its more parallel and more cylindrical shape, rather 
larger head, more narrowly separated eyes, more prominent (but small) antennary 
orbits, and longer and much more slender antenne. 
CLEODAUS. 
Very near Conomorphus and differing as follows :—The last joint of the maxillary palpi three times as long as 
the third joint, subcultriform, its apical and outer sides about equal in length and each nearly twice as 
long as the inner side, the inner angle rectangular; the last joint of the labial palpi rather large and 
ovate, with the apex truncate, the second joint stout; head very broad, strongly narrowed behind, with 
small but rather prominent antennary orbits; eyes very large, convex, not very coarsely granulated, 
distant; antenne about reaching the base of the prothorax, joint 1 long and stout, 2 short and stout, 
* Conomorphus flavicornis. 
Subconical, fulvo-castaneous, the head and prothorax of a more ferruginous tint, the latter and the elytra each 
with a black sublateral stripe, the stripe on the elytra extending to a little beyond the middle, and with 
its outer edge interrupted posteriorly by an extension inwards of the ground-colour (this part flavous in 
one example), the suture also marked with black or piceous near the apex, the surface sparsely pubescent 
and moderately shining. Head very closely and rather coarsely punctured ; antenne as in C. brevicornis ; 
prothorax longer than broad, the sides immarginate and almost straight, the surface densely and rugulosely 
punctured, the disc very shallowly and obliquely impressed on each side behind, the base with a deep 
groove connecting the short basal fovex; elytra transversely impressed on each side at the base, closely 
and moderately finely punctured ; legs ferruginous. 
Length 6§-7 millim. 
Hab. Sovrn America, Parana (coll. F. Bates). Two examples.
