CRYPTORRHYNCHUS. 653 
subcostate. Ventral segments alutaceous, sparsely, finely punctate. Femora unidentate. Tibie sinuous 
within. 
Length 63-7, breadth 3-34 millim. (¢ 9 .) 
Hab. Panama, Volcan de Chiriqui (Champion). 
Four specimens. The opaque surface, the trilineate prothorax, the oblong fasciculate 
prominences on the elytra, the prominent humeri, and the long, coarse, erect, abundant 
setosity, give this insect a very distinct facies. he tufts of long fulvous sete on the 
median elevations of the elytra project backwards, as in Metadupus apicalis. 
Species large or moderately large, elongate, squamose, with the eyes large, pyriform, and almost 
covered in repose, the rostrum stout and feebly curved, the antennal club elongate or oblong, 
the prothorax bisinuate at the base, the elytra oblong, a little wider than the prothorax, 
with the interstices granulate and the alternate ones raised, the mesosternum prominent, 
arcnate-emarginate, the ventral segment 2 longer than 3, the legs rugose, the femora uni- 
dentate, the anterior tarsi without projecting hairs in the §. (Nos. 35, 36.)

Celosternus frontalis, Chevr. in litt.? 
Hab. Mexico, Toxpam (Sallé!); Guatrmemata, El Tumbador, Las Mercedes, Cerro 
Zunil (Champion); Nicaragua, Chontales (Belt); Payama, Volcan de Chiriqui 
(Champion). 
Found in abundance at Cerro Zunil, and in very fresh condition, these specimens 
having the transverse white subapical patch on the disc of each elytron extending 
completely across and forming a common fascia. The other white markings are a spot 
on the vertex, a posteriorly evanescent median vitta on the prothorax, and a curved, 
elongate, humeral streak on the elytra. The antennal club is elongate. The rostrum 
of the male is rugosely punctate and carinate, that of the female being smoother and 
non-carinate. ‘The tarsi are clothed above with long, scattered, white hairs. Chevrolat 
gives the length as 18 millim.; but this must be a mistake, the series before me 
measuring from 83-12 millim. in length, and 33-5 millim. in breadth. The type 
cannot be found in the Stockholm Museum; we have, however, three specimens of 
the species from the Sallé collection, labelled “* Celosternus frontalis, Chevr.,” a name 
that has also been used by Chevrolat for the same insect. The feebly emarginate, 
prominent mesosternum, and the absence of the long, laterally projecting hairs on the 
front tarsi of the male, separate C. albitarsus from the genus Cophes. A Guatemalan 
specimen is figured. 
36. Cryptorrhynchus cinctipes, sp.n. (Tab. XXXIL. figg. 9, 9a, 3.) 
Elongate-ovate, dull, black, the antenne obscure ferruginous ; thickly clothed (except along the elytral suture) 
with reddish-brown scales, with whitish scales intermixed, these latter conspicuous on the head, clustered
