196 RHYNCHOPHORA. 
3. Pseudanthonomus lituratus, sp. n. (Tab. XI. figg. 15, 15a, 3.) 
Oblong-ovate, piceous, the antenns (the club excepted), and the legs in part, testaceous ; clothed with a 
coarse, yellowish-grey pubescence, which is rather close on the prothorax, and is condensed into spots on 
the elytra (the spots showing a tendency to form an interrupted ring on the disc of each elytron beyond 
the middle). Head rugulose, the eyes prominent; rostrum feebly curved, moderately stout, widening a 
little outwards, as long as the head and prothorax, dull, rugulosely punctate, the scrobes lateral, the 
antenne inserted at about two-fifths from the apex, the funiculus 6-jointed. Prothorax transverse, 
narrowing from a little before the base, feebly constricted in front, densely punctate. LElytra considerably 
wider than the prothorax, subparallel at the base, the humeri obtuse; deeply punctate-striate, the inter- 
stices narrow, convex, and punctulate. Femora each with a small tooth; anterior tibize sinuate within ; 
tarsal claws with a long tooth. 
Length 14, breadth ,%, millim. (¢.) 
Hab. Muxico, Xucumanatlan in Guerrero (H. H. Smith). 
One specimen. Extremely like Anthonomus paleatus, from Chiriqui, which has 
similarly condensed patches of pubescence on the elytra, but narrower and oblong-ovate 
in form, with the rostrum longer, straighter, and more rugose, the funiculus 6-jointed. 
4. Pseudanthonomus apionoides, sp. n. 
Subovate, rather narrow, piceous, the legs and antenne partly testaceous; somewhat thickly clothed with 
moderately coarse yellowish-grey or whitish pubescence, the vestiture of the under surface whitish. Head 
rugulose, foveate above the eyes ; rostrum a little longer than the head and prothorax, moderately curved, 
rather stout, rugulose, the scrobes descending to the lower limit of the eyes, the antenne insertcd at or 
slightly before the middle, the funiculus 6-jointed, joint 2 a little longer than 3, 3-6 subequal in length. 
Prothorax transverse, narrowing from a little before the base, and feebly constricted in front, densely 
punctate. Elytra convex, short, considerably wider than the prothorax, subparallel in their basal half, 
the humeri not prominent; deeply punctate-striate, the interstices convex and narrow. Femora each 
with a very minute tooth; anterior tibie strongly sinuate within; tarsal claws with a long tooth. 
Length 13-14, breadth 3-3? millim. (¢ 9.) 
Hab. Costa Rica, San José (Biolley); Panama, Pefia Blanca (Champion). 
Six specimens, two of which are in fragments. Very similar to the Mexican 
P. lituratus, but smaller and narrower, the rostrum and antenne shorter, the 
pubescence not so coarse. 
5. Pseudanthonomus rufotestaceus, sp. n. 
Subovate, rather broad, shining, rufo-testaceous, the rostrum ferruginous, the eyes and antennal club black ; 
sparsely clothed with a fine yellowish pubescence, which shows no tendency to become condensed into 
spots or lines on the prothorax or elytra, the vestiture of the meso- and metasternum whitish. Head 
rugulose, the eyes rather narrowly separated ; rostrum moderately stout, curved, more than one-half longer 
than the prothorax, rugulosely punctate, with the scrobes. descending to the lower edge of the eyes, the 
antenne inserted at the middle, the funiculus 6-jointed, joint 1 stout, 2 twice as long as 3, 3 and 4 very 
short. Prothorax transverse, rounded at the sides, narrowing and constricted in front, sinuate at the 
base, densely punctate. Elytra short and convex, very much wider than the prothorax, subparallel at 
the base, flattened on the dise in front, the humeri slightly prominent ; deeply punctate-striate, the inter- 
stices convex and punctulate. Femora somewhat feebly clavate, each with an acute tooth, that on the 
anterior pair moderately long; anterior tibie sinuate within ; tarsal claws with a long tooth. 
Length 2, breadth 1,4, millim. ( 2.) 
Hab. GUATEMALA, San Gerdnimo (Champion).
