164 RHYNCHOPHORA. 
Hab. Mexico! (Sallé), Jalapa, Cordova (Hége). 
Antenne very slender; second joint of funiculus nearly twice as long as the first. 
Rostrum rather long, narrower at the tip, finely canaliculate. Thorax in the male not 
transverse, much rounded at the sides and convex, in the female shorter and broader. 
Scutellum quite small. Male with three tubercles on the second ventral plate. 
Very similar to P. annectens, but distinguished by the greater convexity of the 
thorax and elytra, so that longitudinally they form two curves. Specimens of this 
species and of P. brevipes are labelled Naupactus leucolepis, Chevr., in Sallé’s collection. 
I am indebted to Mr. Pascoe for the loan of his type of Athetetes globicollis. 
28. Pantomorus albicans, sp.n. (Tab. VI. fig. 25, ¢.) 
Elongatus, albido-squamosus, fere unicolor ; elytris sutura posterius subcarinato-clevatis ; mare magis elongato 
linearique, prothorace multo longiore. 
Long. 10 millim. 
Hab. Muxtco, Acapulco (Hége), Venta de Zopilote 2800 feet, Dos Arroyos 1000 feet, 
both in Guerrero (H. H. Smith). 
Antenne very slender; second joint of the funiculus quite twice as long as the first. 
Thorax elongate, in the male longer than in the female and more convex longi- 
tudinally. Elytra with the suture distinctly prominent on the declivity ; furnished with 
excessively short, minute, pallid, recumbent setosity, in addition to the dense clothing of 
pallid scales ; this setosity more distinct on the elevated part of the suture. Male 
with a transverse series of five or six tubercles on the second ventral plate. 
Distinguished by the very pallid colour and the great sexual disparity; the males 
and females looking at first sight as if they belonged to distinct species on account of the 
ereat difference of outline. We have received ten examples of the species; it varies a 
little in colour, a few of the scales being in some cases tinged with pallid ochreous- 
brown so as to cause a slightly vittate appearance. Our figure is taken from the male 
example procured at Venta de Zopilote. 
29. Pantomorus viridicans, sp. n. 
Pallide griseo-squamosus, viridi-tinctus ; maris prothorace convexo. 
Long. 7-74 millim. 
Hab. Mexico, Presidio de Mazatlan, Ventanas (Forrer). 
Smaller than the individuals of the allied species, covered uniformly with pallid 
scales faintly tinged with green, without any appearance of maculation. Head and 
rostrum finely canaliculate; the latter narrowed in front, rather longer in the male than 
in the female. Thorax elongate, rounded at the sides, a little narrowed in front, and 
in the female slightly narrower than the elytra; in the male longer and more globose. 
Elytra slender ; the punctures of the series rather fine. Male with a series of about 
six small tubercles on the middle of the second abdominal plate.
