ANTHONOMUS. 1635 
with two triangular teeth, the inner one large, the outer one small, the intermediate femora with a slender 
acute tooth, the hind femora unarmed ; anterior tibie curved ; tarsal claws with a long tooth. 
Length 23, breadth 1, millim. (¢.) 
Hab. Panama, Bugaba (Champion). 
One specimen. Distinguishable from the other allied forms with nodose or 
tuberculate elytra by the unarmed posterior femora. The elytra appear to be 
regularly tessellated with fuscous, but this is due to certain portions of the surface 
being bare. 
8. Anthonomus cristatus, sp.n. (Tab. IX. figg. 24, 24a, 3.) 
Oblong, rather narrow, dull, rugulose, rufo-piceous, the scape of the antenne and the legs in part testaceous 
or ferruginous; thickly clothed with a fine, squamiform pubescence, which becomes coarser on the 
prothorax, the pubescence in great part ochreous, the prothorax with indications of three paler lines on 
disc and the elytra with a few small scattered cinereous spots, the latter with bare oblong spaces on each 
interstice and the elevations on the second each with a cluster of long sete. Rostrum slender, curved, 
considerably longer than the head and prothorax, finely punctate and tricarinate, smoother at the tip, 
the antenne inserted at about one-third from the apex, joint 1 of the funiculus twice as long as 2; eyes 
prominent. Prothorax broader than long, rounded at the sides, constricted and much narrowed in front 
and slightly narrowed behind. LElytra oblong, convex, a little wider than the prothorax, the humeri 
prominent, but obtuse ; punctate-striate, the interstices convex, 2 with an oblong setigerous prominence 
before and another beyond the middle and 4 also raised towards the base and apex. Anterior femora 
strongly clavate, and armed with two triangular teeth, the mner one long and large, the outer one 
small; intermediate and hind femora each with an acute tooth; anterior tibie curved; tarsal claws 
with a long tooth. 
Length 2%, breadth 1, millim. (¢.) 
Hab. Guaremaa, Cahabon in Vera Paz (Champion). 
One specimen. Very like A. nodifer, but with more oblong elytra, the elevations 
on which are smaller, the rostrum more curved, the hind femora toothed. ‘The 
prominences on the second elytral interstice are mainly formed by the clustered sete. 
9. Anthonomus scabricollis, sp.n. (Tab. IX. figg. 25, 25a, 3.) 
Oblong-ohovate, dull, piceous, the antennz and legs more or less ferruginous, the femora partly blackish at 
the middle; thickly clothed with ferruginous pubescence, the head and the anterior half of the prothorax 
with patches of pale ochreous oblong scales, the vestiture of the elytra shading off into ochreous towards 
the sides and apex; the legs with ochreous hairs. Head rugulose; rostrum feebly curved, much longer 
than the head and prothorax, finely punctate, carinate laterally, except towards the tip, the antenne 
inserted at one-third from the apex, joint 1 of the funiculus twice as long as 2; eyes prominent. 
Prothorax transverse, rounded at the sides, constricted and much narrowed in front and narrowed 
behind, densely, rugosely punctate. Elytra convex, moderately long, one-half wider than the prothorax, 
parallel in their basal half, sinuate at the base, the humeri rounded and not very prominent ; punctate- 
striate, the interstices convex, rugulose, 3, 5, and 7 interruptedly costate or nodose on the anterior third, 
3 conspicuously raised at the base. Anterior femora strongly clavate and armed with two triangular 
teeth, the outer one small; intermediate and hind femora each with a single acute tooth; tibiz sinuous 
within, the anterior pair bowed; tarsal claws with a long tooth. 
Length 31-33, breadth 13-1? millim. (¢.)
