126 RHYNCHOPHORA. 
36. Eulechriops filirostris, sp.n. (Tab. VIII. fig. 4, 2.) 
Rhomboidal, obscure ferruginous, darker beneath, thickly clothed with small, narrow, yellowish-white scales, 
the prothorax with two faint narrow vittw on the disc, and the elytra with a transverse fascia before the 
middle and a patch on the disc towards the apex, ochreous or brown. Eyes comparatively small, conti- 
euous. Rostrum feebly curved, slender, longer than the head and prothorax, almost smooth. Joint 2 of 
the funiculus shorter than 1, 4 slightly longer than 3. Prothorax conical, densely, finely punctate, and 
obsoletely carinate. Elytra broad, rounded-triangular ; punctate-striate, the interstices broad and rugose. 
Rostral canal reaching beyond the middle coxe. Femora unarmed. 
Length 21, breadth 14 millim. (@.) 
Hab. Guatemata, San Gerdénimo (Champion). 
One specimen. Smaller than E. conicicollis, the eyes not so large, the rostrum ( 2 ) 
slender and reaching beyond the middle cox, the dark vitte on the prothorax reduced 
to sinuous lines, the elytra with a straight dark fascia before the middle. The rostrum 
is long and slender, as in the female of E. tenuirostris, from which the present insect 
differs in its less robust build, the straighter sides of the prothorax, &c. 
37. Eulechriops angusticollis, sp. n. (Tab. VIII. fig. 5, 2.) 
Subrhomboidal, castaneous; thickly clothed with small narrow scales: the head, the prothorax with the sides 
broadly and a narrow median vitta, the elytra with a large, triangular scutellar patch (extending outwards 
to the humeri and running down the suture to near the apex), a transverse row of spots just beyond the 
middle, and the apical margin, the under surface, and legs, ochreous or yellowish-white, the rest of the 
vestiture of the upper surface brown. Eyes rather small, contiguous. Rostrum curved, depressed at the 
base, moderately slender, longer than the head and prothorax, minutely punctate, the antenne inserted 
near the base, joint 2 of the funiculus much shorter than 1, 4 longer than 3. Prothorax conical, broader 
than long, slightly constricted at the middle; densely punctate and obsoletely carinate. Elytra rather 
long, nearly twice as wide as the prothorax, rounded-triangular ; punctate-striate, the interstices broad 
and rugulose. Rostral canal reaching the middle of the metasternum, widened at its point of termination. 
Legs short; femora unarmed. 
Length 3,),, breadth 1? millim. ( 9.) 
Hab. Panama, Volcan de Chiriqui (Champion). 
One specimen, in perfectly fresh condition. Near £. tenwirostris, but with a narrower 
prothorax and longer elytra, the latter with a line of spots across the middle and a large 
triangular scutellar patch yellowish-white ; the rostrum stouter, depressed at the base, 
and more curved; the rostral canal shallower, and widened at its apex. 
MACROLECHRIOPS, gen. nov. 
Anterior and intermediate coxe each with a flattened conical prominence, the prosternum also with a small 
conical prominence behind each coxa; mesosternum deeply excavate, extending broadly backwards 
between the middle cox, the oblique lamin prominent; metasternum excavate in front; legs short, 
the femora and tibie broad and compressed, the femora unarmed beneath and without external carina, 
the intermediate knees angularly dilated within, the tarsi slender, the claws long; antenne inserted 
at some distance from the base of the rostrum; prothorax short, arcuato-carinate; scutellum visible; 
ventral segments rapidly ascending. ; 
The single species referred to this genus approaches Macherocnemis and Copturosomus, 
but it cannot be included in either of them, as defined by Heller. The presence of a
