PANTOMORUS. 161 
20. Pantomorus stupidus. 
Naupactus stupidus, Boh. in Schénh. Gen. Cure. vi. 1, p. 18°. 
Pantomerus stupidus, Chevr. Bull. Soc. Ent. Fr. 1879, p. cxxx. 
Hab. Muxtco, Alvarado (coll. Chevrolat 1), Vera Cruz (Sallé, Hoge). 
We have received a fair series of this species from Hodge. It varies a good deal in 
colour, the variegation of the elytra being in some examples very slight: such indivi- 
duals appear at first sight intermediate between P. stupidus and P. uniformis; but the 
scales in P. stupidus are never brilliant, and the surface is destitute of the short rough 
setosity that exists in P. wniformis. 
21. Pantomorus uniformis, sp.n. (Tab. VI. fig. 21.) 
Dense lete viridi-squamosus, obsoletissime subvittatus, dense, omnium brevissime, setosus. 
Long. 83-114 millim. 
Hab. Mexico, Vera Cruz (Hége). 
Antenne slender, black, clothed with much pallid setosity ; third joint twice as long 
as the second; club very slender. Rostrum deeply canaliculate. Thorax short and 
broad, much narrowed in front. Striz of the elytra fine, obscured by the pubescence. 
Rostral scrobes deep and definite, rather slender. 
We have received a series of about forty examples of P. uniformis; it cannot be 
confounded with any other Pantomorus on account of the dense uniform covering of 
golden-green scales. The male is more slender than the female, and has the front of 
the rostrum slightly depressed along the middle. 
22. Pantomorus rufipes, sp. n. 
Elongatus, dense viridi-squamosus, pedibus antennarumque scapo rufis. 
Long. 84 millim. 
Hab. Mexico, Parada (Saldé), Playa Vicente (Hoge). 
Antenne moderately long; second joint of the funiculus hardly one and a half times 
as long as the first. Rostrum rather short, canaliculate, subcarinate on each side. 
Thorax short, very finely sculptured, canaliculate along the middle, the channel 
obsolete in front, moderately deep behind, covered with minute green scales. LHlytra 
long and narrow, not convex longitudinally, covered with minute green scales, and 
bearing a minute, very short setosity ; the punctures fine. Legs red, elongate ; anterior 
femora a little incrassate. 
We have received only two examples of this distinct species. The scutellum is 
more distinct than in any other member of the genus, but I have very little doubt as 
to P. rufipes belonging to the apterous series.
