EUBULOMUS. 543 
dise anteriorly, the humeri rounded; with rows of subquadrate punctures placed in shallow striae, 
the interstices equally and narrowly costate throughout, the suture also raised. Beneath coarsely, 
closely punctate. Legs short, rather stout, coarsely punctate; femora unarmed ; tibie straight on their 
inner, and sharply carinate on their outer edge, the posterior pair gradually widened in their basal two- 
thirds and narrowed thence to the apex. 
Length 4-5, breadth 14-23 millim. 
Hab. Panama, Bugaba, Volcan de Chiriqui (Champion). 
Numerous specimens. Separable from the other allied forms with multicostate 
elytra by the basally thickened rostrum (this being especially noticeable when the 
insect is viewed in profile), the non-carinate prothorax, the fine vestiture of the under 
surface, the unarmed femora, and the externally widened posterior tibiz. 
3. Eubulomus reflexirostris, sp. n. 
Ovate, narrow, shining, black or piceous, the antenne ferruginous; clothed with widely scattered ochreous 
scales and short semierect pallid sete, the scales fasciculate on the elytra, the vestiture of the under 
surface sparse and fine, the legs sparsely setulose. Head rugosely punctate, carinate and transversely 
depressed in front, the eyes distant ; rostrum strongly curved, cylindrical, constricted at the base, reaching 
about as far as the anterior margin of the front coxe, tricarinate and rugosely punctate, a little smoother 
in the 9, the antenne inserted slightly behind the middle, joints 2-7 of the funiculus short, the club 
ovate. Prothorax transverse, narrowing almost from the base, the sides rounded anteriorly ; coarsely, 
confluently punctate, and sometimes obsoletely carinate behind. Elytra much wider than the prothorax, 
narrowing from near the base, the humeri rounded; with rows of subquadrate punctures placed in 
shallow striz, the interstices equally and narrowly costate throughout. Beneath coarsely, closely 
punctate. Mesosternum prominent, horseshoe-shaped. Femora unarmed. Tibi straight on their 
inner edge, carinate externally. 
Length 34-41, breadth 13-2 millim. (¢ 2.) 
Hab. Guaremata, Cubilguitz in Vera Paz (Champion); Nicaragua, Chontales 
(Janson); Panama, Bugaba, Volcan de Chiriqui (Champion). 
Eight specimens, all but two from Chiriqui. Very like £. mu(ticostatus, but smaller, 
the rostrum shorter, cylindrical, and tricarinate to near the apex in the male, the eyes 
distant, the head rugosely punctate and more or less distinctly carinate. 
4. Kubulomus squamiventris, sp. n. 
Very like E. reflexirostris, but with both the prothorax and elytra a little more rapidly narrowed from the 
base, the setae numerous on the upper surface, the ventral segments clothed with coarse scales ; the head 
coarsely, closely punctate, not carinate; the rostrum tricarinate and rugosely punctate, widened towards 
the base, and constricted in front of the narrowly separated eyes; the prothorax coarsely, confluently 
punctate, not carinate ; the tibie almost straight, carinate externally. 
Length 32-4, breadth 2 millim. 
Hab. Panama, Bugaba, Volcan de Chiriqui (Champion). 
Three specimens. ‘he coarsely squamose abdomen, the more sparsely punctate 
head, the non-contiguous eyes, the shorter rostrum, and the somewhat rhomboidal 
general form, distinguish this species from 4. mnulticostatus.
