EUBULUS. 569 
48, Kubulus tetricus, sp. n. 
Subovate, black, the elytra, and the legs in part, piceous, the antenne and tarsi ferruginous; the prothorax 
with scattered blackish-brown, erect sete, which are clustered into two fascicles on the dise and two at 
the apex; the elytra rather sparsely clothed with small ochreous scales, with a few whitish scales inter- 
mixed, and also with scattered, long, erect setze; the rest of the vestiture sparse, ochreous or whitish. 
Head, rostrum, antenne, and prothorax much as in /#. aéricollis. Mlytra rather short, subtriangular, 
subparallel at the base; shining, punctate-striate, the interstices 3, 5, 7, and 9 sharply costate. Legs 
rather short; femora sharply unidentate. 
Length 32, breadth 1,% millim. (<¢.) 
Hab. Panama, Volcan de Chiriqui (Champion). 
One specimen. Smaller than /. atricollis, the elytra shorter, subparallel at the 
base, with the humeri less prominent, the vestiture paler and not so coarse, the sete 
longer. 
49. Kubulus miser, sp.n. (Tab. XXVIII. figg. 7, 7a, 3.) 
Subrhomboidal, shining, varying in colour from ferruginous to black, the antenne ferruginous ; sparsely 
clothed with small, intermixed ochreous and cincreous scales, the upper surface algo thickly set with 
rather long, erect, blunt sete, which are seriately arranged down each elytral interstice, the legs 
sparsely setose. Head rugosely punctate, usually with a distinct, transverse, undulate carina in front, 
the eyes distant; rostrum strongly curved, rugosely punctate and often tricarinate, with the apex 
sparsely, finely punctate, the apical half almost smooth in the 9, the antenne inserted at (2) orata 
little beyond (3) the middle, the funiculus slender, joint 2 shorter than 1, the club stout, ovate. 
Prothorax strongly transverse, constricted and much narrowed in front; densely, rugosely punctate, 
and also carinate. Elytra much wider than the prothorax, short, transversely convex, subtriangular, 
the humeri prominent and obliquely truncated in front; punctate-striate, the inserstices rugulose, 
3, 5, 7, and 9 sharply costate. Beneath closely punctate. Legs rather long; femora sharply unidentate, 
and sometimes with a small tooth exterior to the larger one. 
Length 23-4, breadth 13-23 millim. (¢ 2.) 
Hab. Guatemaua, Pantaleon (Champion); Panama, Bugaba, Volean de Chiriqui 
(Champion). 
Seven specimens, varying in size and colour, and in the development of the carina of 
the prothorax; the head and rostrum, too, are not always distinctly carinate. Smaller 
and more setose than /. brevis, F. carinifrons, &c., the elytra without definite markings, 
the vestiture of the flanks of the prothorax concolorous with that of the upper surface. 
50. Eubulus unidentatus, sp. n. 
Subovate, shining, black, the antenne and the tips of the tarsi ferruginous; thickly clothed with brown scales, 
the elytra more or less variegated with blackish, and sometimes with a few cinereous scales intermixed, 
the blackish scales often condensed into an irregular, interrupted fascia before the middle; the surface, the 
legs included, also set with rather fine, long, erect, scattered sete. Head rugulosely punctate, with a 
transverse frontal depression, which is sometimes carinate down the middle, and with a short oblique 
ridge above each of the eyes, the latter distant ; rostrum curved, very little longer than the prothorax, 
much widened to-vards the base, rugosely punctate and finely carinate, the apical half sparsely punctate 
(smoother in the Q ), the antennx inserted at the middle, joints 3-7 of the funiculus transverse, 2 much . 
shorter than 1, the club oblong-ovate. Prothorax transverse, abruptly narrowed and strongly constricted 
in front; densely punctate and arcuato-carinate, Scutellum oblong. Elytra much wider than the
