112 RHYNCHOPHORA. 
rugose. Rostral canal deep, extending as far as the posterior margin of the middle coxe. Legs short ; 
femora deeply sulcate beneath, unarmed. 
Length 33-32, breadth 14-2 millim. 
Hab. Guatemaa, Sinanja in Vera Paz (Champion). 
Two specimens. The vestiture of the prothorax and under surface in this species 
is almost wholly ochreous, the elytra with indeterminate darker markings. 
3. Kulechriops squamulatus, sp.n. (Tab. VII. figg. 10, 10a.) 
Subrhomboidal, somewhat flattened above, nigro-piceous, the antenne and the apical margin of the elytra more 
or less ferruginous; variegated with a dense clothing of coarse white, ochreous, and brown scales, those 
on the elytra oval, and arranged in a single row along each stria and in a single or double row on each 
interstice, the white scales sometimes clustered into denser patches; the vestiture of the under surface 
coarse, dense, and almost wholly white. Head with a smoother bare space along the middle of the vertex ; 
eyes large, descending, narrowly separated ; rostrum arcuate, about as long as the head and prothorax, 
rugulosely punctate, squamose, and feebly carinate at the base, for the rest smooth and shining ; joints 1 
and 2 of the funiculus equal in length. Prothorax transverse, hollowed at the apex, narrowing from near 
the base, constricted in front; densely punctate. Elytra wider than the prothorax, rounded-triangular, 
deeply punctate-striate, the interstices not wider than the broad striw, rugulose. Rostral canal reaching 
as far as the posterior margin of the middle cox, the metasternal depression shallow, the mesosternal 
carine not very prominent. Legs short; femora unarmed, the intermediate and posterior pairs faintly 
carinate externally. 
Length 3-33, breadth 12-13 millim. 
Hab. Mexico, Toxpam in Vera Cruz (Sallé); Guatemaua, San Gerdnimo, Guatemala 
City, Duefias (Champion). 
Ten specimens. Very like Cylindrocopturus albonotatus and C. imbricatus, but with 
the meso- and metasternum channelled for the reception of the rostrum. ‘The seriate 
punctures of the elytra each bear a rather large oval scale ; the striz and interstices 
are subequal in width. 
4. Kulechriops nigrolineatus, sp. n. (Tab. VII. fig. 11.) 
Oblong-ovate, nigro-piceous, the antenne, the tip of the rostrum, apical margin of the elytra, and tarsi 
ferruginous; thickly clothed with coarse, brown, overlapping scales, with ochreous and whitish scales 
intermixed, these latter clustered into a common transverse patch below the base and another at about one- 
third from the apex, the intervening portion of the second interstice black, the seriate elytral punctures 
each bearing a minute scale, the scales on the prothorax condensed into three vittew. Eyes moderately 
large, narrowly separated. Rostrum stout, feebly arcuate, about as long as the head and prothorax, 
somewhat closely punctate, rugose at the base. Joints 1 and 2 of the funiculus about equal in length. 
Prothorax rather convex, broader than long, slightly rounded at the sides, narrowed and constricted 
in front; densely, rugosely punctate, and sharply carinate. Elytra much wider than the prothorax, 
moderately long, separately rounded at the apex ; punctate-striate, the strie narrow, the interstices broad, 
rugulose, flat. Rostral canal reaching as far as the posterior margin of the middle coxe, the broad 
metasternal depression shallow, the mesosternal carine sharp. Legs short; femora unarmed. 
Length 33-4, breadth 14—1,°, millim. 
Hab. Muxico, Yautepec in Morelos (£/ége). 
Iwo specimens, discoloured by immersion in alcohol. A species approaching the 
genus Cylindrocopturus, but with the rostral canal extending to the meso- and
