700 . RHYNCHOPHORA. 
One specimen. Narrower than C. scutulatus, the eyes not so large, the prothorax 
with a whitish median line, which is continued along each side of the scutellum, the 
black markings on the elytra mostly included within a large, common, subtriangular 
space on the basal half of the disc, the alternate interstices not raised, the legs longer 
and more slender. 
129. Cryptorrhynchus erubescens, sp. n. (Tab. XXXIV. figy. 21, 21a.) 
Subovate, nigro-piceous, the rostrum and the legs in part rufo-piceous, the antenne ferruginous ; variegated 
with a dense clothing of fulvous and rosy-red scales, the prothorax and elytra narrowly, irregularly 
reticulate with black, the upper surface also somewhat thickly set with erect setiform scales, which are 
clustered into four fascicles on the prothorax (two on the disc and two at the apex), the legs subannulate. 
Head densely punctate and shallowly canaliculate, with a large, rounded, flattened space above, which is 
limited by an oblique carina on each side near the very large, rather narrowly separated, finely facetted 
eyes; rostrum strongly curved, a little longer than the prothorax, widened, rugulose, and subcarinate 
at the base, and for the rest shining and minutely punctate, the antenne inserted at about the basal 
third, the club stout and elongate, nearly as long as the funiculus. Prothorax transverse, subquadrate, 
compressed at the sides anteriorly, abruptly narrowed and feebly constricted at the apex, the apex 
emarginate in the middle and somewhat produced, the base deeply bisinuate ; densely punctate, binodose 
on the disc and in front. Scutellum small. Elytra much wider than the prothorax, transversely 
convex, rounded-triangular, abruptly declivous at the sides; seriate-punctate, the interstices convex, 
3, 5, and 8 considerably raised, 3 swollen at the middle. Beneath densely punctate. Mesosternum very 
prominent, raised, v-shaped in front. Legs short and stout; femora clavate, sharply unidentate. 
Length 44, breadth 21 millim. (9?) 
Hab. Nicaraeua, Chontales (Belt). 
One specimen. ‘This interesting little insect has much the facies of a Zygops. The 
circularly flattened front, the large eyes, the subquadrate, laterally compressed, 
quadrifasciculate prothorax, the subtriangular elytra, with raised interstices, &c., give 
it a peculiar facies. ‘The vestiture of the upper surface and legs is in part rosy-red. 
130. Cryptorrhynchus honestus, sp.n. (Tab. XXXIV. fige. 22, 22a, ¢ .) 
Subovate, rather narrow, dull, rufo-piceous, variegated with black, the antenne, and the legs in great part, 
ferruginous; mottled above with a rather sparse clothing of small ochreous, white, and blackish scales, 
the dark portions of the surface (including a transverse patch on the head and a transverse angulate line 
on the middle of the disc of the prothorax) almost bare, the elytra with a white spot on the suture before 
the middle; the upper surface also set with short, semierect sete, the prothorax with two fascicles of 
longer, blackish, erect sete at the apex ; the legs subannulate with small ochreous scales, the vestiture 
of the under surface sparse and pale. Head rugulosely punctate, the eyes large and narrowly separated ; 
rostrum curved, not longer than the prothorax, closely, finely punctate, rugulose and a little widened at 
the base, the antenne inserted at the middle, joint 2 of the funiculus shorter than 1, 3-7 short, the club 
ovate. Prothorax rather broader than long, subconical, narrowing from near the base, the latter deeply 
bisinuate ; closely, finely punctate, binodose at the apex. Scutellum small. Elytra much wider than 
the prothorax, subtriangular ; seriate-punctate, the interstices opaque, 3 and 5 slightly raised anteriorly, 
the others somewhat convex. Beneath finely punctate, opaque. Mesosternum very prominent, and 
much raised, v-shaped in front. Legs short, the anterior pair longer; femora feebly clavate, sharply 
unidentate. 
Length 3, breadth 12 millim. (¢.)
