STATIRA (p. 3). 
40 (a). Statira pilifera. 
és Elongate, obscure rufo-testaceous, the elytra reddish-brown with an neous lustre, the upper surface 
moderately shining, the legs, antenne, and under surface rufo-testaceous ; the elytra clothed with very 
long, erect hairs. Head finely, sparsely punctate, almost smooth in front, the eyes very large, rather 
narrowly separated; antenne moderately long (apical joint broken off); prothorax as long as broad, 
completely margined at the sides, the sides somewhat obliquely converging in front, the anterior angles 
obtuse but distinct, the surface rather densely, very irregularly, minutely punctured; elytra elongate, 
moderately deeply striate, the strie with very fine, extremely closely placed, transverse punctures, the 
interstices slightly convex, the first with a single row, the third, fifth, seventh, and ninth each with a 
double row of rather closely placed, deep, setiferous punctures which extend from the base to the apex, 
the fourth, sixth, and eighth interstices also with four or five setiferous punctures towards the apex ; 
beneath almost smooth ; legs elongate, rather slender, the femora glabrous on their inner edge. 
Length 103, breadth 3 millim. 
Hab. Mexico, Cerro de Plumas (Flohr). 
One specimen. Allied to S. alternans, but easily distinguishable from it by the 
longer and more shining thorax, and the more numerous setiferous impressions on the 
elytra, these being arranged in double rows on each of the alternate interstices, the 
first excepted. SS. pilifera somewhat resembles S. cribrata and S. ciliata, but it has 
the thorax completely margined at the sides and the legs without long hairs. 
41 (a). Statira spiculifera, (Tab. XXI. fig. 3, 3.) 
g. Elongate, the head and prothorax dull, ferruginous, the elytra shining, obscure ferruginous, with the 
sides brilliant metallic green, the antennz, legs, and under surface reddish-testaceous. Head finely and 
rather densely punctured, almost smooth in front, the eyes very large; antenne moderately long, not 
very slender, the apical joint nearly equalling joints 6-10 united ; prothorax as long as broad, completely 
margined at the sides, the sides somewhat obliquely converging in front, the anterior angles rounded, the 
hind angles acute, the surface very finely scabrous, smoother towards the sides and base; elytra elongate, 
rather deeply striate, the strie with very fine, extremely closely placed, subtransverse punctures, the 
first, third, and fifth interstices each with a row of from fifteen to twenty, the seventh and ninth each 
with about ten, rather coarse, deep punctures, which extend from the base to the apex and are each 
preceded by a feeble elevation, these elevations becoming more distinct towards the sides ; legs moderately 
stout ; hind femora sinuate on their inner edge, densely ciliate towards the base; hind tibie sinuate. 
Length 10, breadth 33 millim. 
Hab. Mexico, Motzorongo in Vera Cruz (Lohr). 
One specimen. Allied to S. tuberosa and S. nodulosa, but less elongate, with the
