Species small, oblong-ovate, squamose and setose, with the rostrum short, stout, widened 
towards the base and apex, the antennal club ovate, the eyes large, the prothorax produced 
and strongly fasciculate at the apex, with the ocular lobes feebly developed and the base 
bisinuate, the elytra subtriangular, produced at the apex, and with oblong setigerous 
prominences on the disc, the mesosternum prominent and feebly emarginate, the meta- 
thoracic episterna narrow, the ventral segment 2 longer than 3, the legs rather slender, the 
femora moderately clavate and unidentate. (No. 93.) 
93. Cryptorrhynchus subcaudatus, sp. n. (Tab. X XXIII. figg. 25, 25 a.) 
Subelliptic, rather narrow, shining, piceous, the antenne, rostrum, and apices of the tarsi rufescent ; thickly 
clothed with small, intermixed pale brown, fulvous, and cinereous scales; the prothorax with two 
fascicles of long, erect, dark brown sets at the apex and a few shorter sete scattered across the middle ; 
the elytra also with scattered, semierect, light and dark sete, the latter becoming crowded on the dorsal 
elevations. Head rugulosely punctate, somewhat swollen above the eyes, the latter moderately large and 
distant ; rostrum short and stout, a little widened towards the base and apex, feebly curved, rugulosely 
punctate at the base and thence to the apex sparsely, minutely punctate, the antennee inserted far behind 
the middle, joints 1 and 2 of the funiculus equal in length, the others short and widening outwards, the 
club stout, ovate. Prothorax about as long as broad, constricted and much narrowed in front; densely 
punctate, obsoletely carinate at the middle. Scutellum small. Elytra much wider than the prothorax, 
subtriangular, strongly produced at the apex, the humeri slightly swollen; seriate-punctate, the inter- 
stices punctulate, 1 with an oblong setigerous prominence before, and 2 with a similar prominence at, 
the middle, 3,5, and 7 also raised near the base, 5 becoming convex posteriorly. Beneath closely, 
rather finely punctate. Mesosternum very prominent, feebly emarginate. Legs rather long; femora 
moderately clavate, unidentate. 
Length 44, breadth 2 millim. (2?) 
Hab. Panama, Volcan de Chiriqui (Champion). 
One specimen. This insect is very like Anomemerus tristis, Faust *, from Venezuela; 
but it has the rostrum broader towards the tip, and the antenne are inserted behind 
the middle; the anterior femora are not nearly so stout; the elytra are strongly 
produced at the apex, and have the setigerous elevations differently placed, &c. 
Species very small, ovate, sparsely and finely squamose, with the rostrum curved, the eyes 
large and well-separated, the antennal club ovate, the prothorax feebly bisinuate at the base 
and bifasciculate at the apex, the scutellum small, the elytra subtriangular, with the 
interstices narrowly raised, the third becoming more swollen towards the middle, the 
mesosternum very prominent and feebly emarginate, the metathoracic episterna broad, the 
ventral segment 2 longer than 3, the legs rather slender, the femora unidentate. (No. 94.) 
94. Cryptorrhynchus guttatus, sp. n. 
Ovate, piceous, the apical half of the rostrum, the antenne, and tarsi more or less ferruginous ; sparsely 
clothed with minute fulvous scales, the head with a small spot in front, and the elytra with a short 
streak beneath the humeri, a small spot at the middle of. the second interstice, and another at its base, 
white or whitish, the prothorax with two fascicles of short, erect, fine, blackish sete at the apex. Head 
* The type of this species is a male, and it has the anterior tarsi clothed with laterally projecting hairs.
