678 RHYNCHOPHORA. 
Three specimens. Less robust than C. dcoculatus, the sete much shorter and 
inconspicuous, the prothorax narrowed behind and without lighter markings, the 
whitish patch on the disc of each elytron transverse and smaller, the femora more 
feebly dentate. The following is yet another nearly allied form. 
85. Cryptorrhynchus diophthalmus, sp.n. (Tab. XXXIII. fig. 20, o.) 
More elongate than C. distigma, the scutellum and a transverse patch at about the middle of each elytron 
white; the upper surface somewhat thickly set with short, rather coarse, semierect sete; the prothorax 
less constricted in front and more coarsely punctate; the elytra more coarsely seriate-punctate ; the 
antenne inserted towards the base in both sexes ; the femora unarmed; the fifth ventral segment broadly 
truncate at the apex in the ¢. . 
Length 4, breadth 13 millim. (¢ 9.) 
Hab. Mexico, Jalapa (Hdge), Toxpam (Sallé). 
Two specimens, both from the Atlantic slope. The posterior femora are slightly 
angulate beneath, but they cannot be described as toothed. In one example there is 
a small white spot on the prothorax in front of the scutellum. 
86. Cryptorrhynchus leucostigma, sp. n. 
Oblong-ovate, nigro-piceous ; clothed with rather coarse brown scales, the elytra variegated with black and 
also with a faint, interrupted, transverse white fascia before the middle; the upper surface somewhat 
thickly set with erect, pallid and dark sete, the legs setose. Head densely punctate, the eyes distant ; 
rostrum short, stout, feebly arcuate, finely punctate, rugulose at the base, the antenne inserted behind 
the middle, joints 2-7 of the funiculus slender, 2 shorter than 1, the club ovate. Prothorax transverse, 
rather convex, rounded at the sides, narrowed and slightly constricted in front, feebly sinuate at the base ; 
dull, densely, finely punctate. Scutellum small. Elytra very little wider than the prothorax, rapidly 
narrowing from about the middle; shining, rather coarsely seriate-punctate (the punctures not hidden 
by the vestiture), the interstices convex, flat along the suture. Beneath densely punctate. Mesosternum 
broad, prominent, arcuate-emarginate. Legs short; femora unidentate. 
Length 3, breadth 13 millim. (9 ?) 
Hab. GuaTemMaua, San Juan in Vera Paz (Champion). 
One specimen. In this obscure little species the elytra are very little wider than 
the prothorax, faintly fasciate with white, and rather coarsely seriate-punctate, the 
entire upper surface setose, the sete nowhere clustered into fascicles. It approaches 
C. degressus. 
87. Cryptorrhynchus leucaspis, sp. n. 
Ovate, narrow, piceous, the antenne ferruginous, densely clothed with intermixed pale brown and fuscous 
scales, the prothorax with a narrow pallid median vitta, which is whitish in front of the scutellum, the 
elytra with a common, broad, whitish space on the disc, extending from a little below the base to near 
the apex and widened in front and behind; the upper surface also set with short, coarse, erect setx, the 
legs setose. Head densely punctate, the eyes rather small, laterally placed ; rostrum short, stout, feebly 
curved, rugosely punctate to the tip, the antenne inserted at the middle, joints 3-7 of the funiculus 
transverse and closely articulated, 2 short, the club ovate. Prothorax a little wider than long, narrowed 
and feebly constricted in front; densely punctate. Elytra punctate-striate, the interstices 3, 5, and 7
