EUBULUS. 577 
Hab. Mexico, Tapachula (Hoge: ¢); Panama, Volcan de Chiriqui, Caldera 
(Champion: & @). 
Four specimens, the one from Mexico having the suture of the elytra black from the 
triangular basal patch to the apex. This insect approaches H. melanotus, but it is very 
differently coloured; the setze are numerous, longer, and not so coarse; the humeri 
are less prominent; the rostrum is shorter, the antenne inserted at or beyond the 
middle. All the tibize are angulate on the outer edge at the base. 
65. Kubulus seminiger, sp. n. (Tab. XXVIII. figg. 18, 18a, 2.) 
Subovate, the head, prothorax, and a transverse, triangular space at the base of the elytra, black, the rest of 
the elytral surface more or less mottled with black and rufo-piceous, the under surface and legs piceous ; 
the prothorax with short, scattered, erect, blackish sete, its flanks and the elytra thickly clothed with 
fulvous scales, the basal portion of the latter with black scales, the elytra with intermixed erect scales ; 
the rest of the vestiture rather sparse, fulvous, the femora subannulate with ochreous. Head rugulosely 
punctate, with a sinuous, transverse ridge above the eyes, the latter distant; rostrum curved, about 
reaching the metasternum, rugosely punctate and carinate, the apical half sparsely, minutely punctate, 
the antenns inserted in the middle, joint 2 of the funiculus much shorter than 1, the club ovate. 
Prothorax transverse, arcuately narrowing from the base, feebly constricted in front; alutaceous, closely 
punctate and sharply carinate. Elytra much wider than the prothorax, subtriangular, parallel at the 
base; shining, punctate-striate, the interstices punctulate, 3, 5, 7, and 9 sharply costate. Beneath 
alutaceous, closely punctate. Legs rather stout; femora each with a long, sharp tooth and indications 
of a small prominence exterior to it ; tibise subangulate at the base externally. 
Length 4-41, breadth 23-2} millim. (¢@.) 
Hab. Guatemata, San Juan in Vera Paz (Champion); Panama, Bugaba (Champion). 
Two specimens, the one from Guatemala in bad condition and with a shorter femoral 
tooth. Larger than #. angularis, the erect setiform scales shorter, coarser, and less 
numerous, the femora more sharply dentate. 
66. Eubulus crinitus, sp.n. (Tab. XXVIII. figg. 19, 19a, ¢.) 
Subovate, nigro-piceous or black, the antenne and the tips of the tarsi ferruginous ; rather sparsely clothed 
with brown scales, the elytra each with a short oblique ochreous streak on the disc before the middle ; 
the upper surface also somewhat thickly set with erect, rather fine, ight and dark sete; the legs with a 
few cinereous scales intermixed. Head rugulosely punctate, the eyes distant ; rostrum strongly curved, 
reaching to the middle of the intermediate coxx, rugosely punctate and carinate, finely punctate at the 
apex, the apical half smoother in the 2, the antenne inserted at ( 2 ) or beyond (¢) the middle, joint 2 
of the funiculus shorter than 1, the club ovate. Prothorax transverse, abruptly narrowed and constricted 
in front; closely punctate, the disc somewhat uneven, sharply arcuato-carinate, and with indications of a 
short ridge towards the sides. Hlytra much wider than the prothorax, rapidly narrowing from a little 
below the base; punctate-striate, the interstices 3,5, 7, and 9 sharply costate. Beneath dull, closely 
punctate. Femora each with a short tooth and a small denticle exterior to it, the latter sometimes 
obsolete. Tibiz almost straight, angulate at the base externally. 
Length 34-4, breadth 2-23 millim. (¢ 2.) 
Hab. Guatemata, El Reposo, Pacific slope (Champion) ; Panama, Volcan de Chiriqui, 
David (Champion). 
Three specimens, one abraded. An obscure species, of the same shape and size as
