186 RHYNCHOPHORA. 
56. Anthonomus fuscomaculatus, sp. n. (Tab. XI. figg. 1, la, ¢-) 
Oblong-ovate, dull, ferruginous, the antennal club black, the elytra with a common triangular patch some 
distance below the base and two interrupted fasciz beyond the middle piceous; sparsely clothed with fine 
ochreous pubescence, the vestiture of the under surface paler. Head rugulosely punctate, the eyes large 
and somewhat coarsely facetted ; rostrum rather stout, moderately curved, a little longer than the head 
and prothorax, rugulosely punctate and feebly 5-carinate, the antenne inserted at about one-fourth from 
the apex, joint 1 of the funiculus as long as 2-4 united, the club loosely articulated. Prothorax strongly 
transverse, slightly rounded at the sides, narrowing almost from the base, densely, finely punctate. 
Elytra rather long, much wider than the prothorax, subparallel in their basal third, somewhat flattened 
on the disc anteriorly, subtruncate at the base, the humeri a little swollen ; deeply punctate-striate, the 
interstices strongly convex and rugulose. Anterior legs very elongate ; femora each with an acute tooth, 
the anterior pair with a minute one exterior to the other ; anterior tibie strongly sinuate within ; tarsal 
claws with a long tooth. Fifth ventral segment foveate in the middle. 
Length 23, breadth 1} millim. (d.) 
Hab. Panama, Tolé (Champion). 
One specimen. Smaller and less elongate than A. rubiginosus, the prothorax shorter 
and subconical, the elytra maculate. 
A. cossonoides-group. 
57. Anthonomus cossonoides, sp.n. (Tab. XI. figg. 2, 2a, ¢.) 
Oblong-ovate, shining, piceous, the antenne (the club excepted) rufo-testaceous, the tibise, tarsi, and the base 
of the femora obscure ferruginous ; clothed with a very sparse, short, fine whitish pubescence, each of the 
elytral interstices with a single row of hairs, the vestiture of the scutelluam and under surface denser. 
Head finely rugulose, faintly foveate above the eyes, the latter prominent and widely separated; rostrum 
stout, curved, short, very little longer than the prothorax, densely rugulose, obsoletely carinate down the 
middle, smoother and shining at the tip, the antenne inserted at one-third from the apex, joint 1 of the 
funiculus as long as 2 and 3 united, 3-7 transverse and closely articulated. Prothorax broader than 
long, rather convex, rounded at the sides, narrowed and feebly constricted in front, strongly bisinuate at 
the base, closely punctate. Elytra oblong, a little wider than the prothorax, flattened on the disc, the 
humeri rounded; deeply punctate-striate, the interstices feebly convex, faintly rugulose, and each with a 
row of excessively minute punctures. Legs stout and rather short; femora each with a small acute tooth, 
the anterior and intermediate pairs also with a minute prominence exterior to it, the anterior pair 
strongly and the others moderately clavate; anterior and intermediate tibie strongly sinuate; tarsal 
claws with a long tooth. 
Length 22, breadth 14, millim. (¢.) 
Hab. Panama, San Miguel in the Pearl Is. (Champion). 
One specimen, with most of the extremely fine pubescence rubbed off. An isolated 
form, very like a small Baris. 
A. grandis-group. 
58. Anthonomus grandis, (Tab. XI. figg. 8, 3a, 2*.) 
Anthonomus grandis, Boh. in Schénh. Gen. Cure. vil. 2, p. 2327; Dietz, Trans. Am. Ent. Soe. xviil. 
p- 205°. 
Hab. Norva America, Texas 2—Mexico!, Matamoros (Howard), San Andres Tuxtla 
(Sailé), Vera Cruz (coll. Chevrolat*); GUATEMALA, San José (Champion). 
* In this and several other species figured on Tab. XI. our artist has drawn the prothorax too elongate in 
proportion to its width.
