PANTOTELES. 183 
hind angles obtuse ; densely, very finely punctate. Elytra much wider than the prothorax, gradually 
narrowing from the base; finely punctate-striate, the interstices flat, densely punctulate. Ventral 
segments 1 and 2 broadly depressed down the middle. Legs rather slender, the anterior pair elongate ; 
anterior tibie sparsely ciliate within from about the middle to the apex ; anterior tarsi clothed on each 
side with numerous long projecting hairs. 
Length 52, breadth 23-22 millim. (¢.) 
Hab. Mexico, Toxpam in Vera Cruz (Sallé). 
Two males. The black median vitta of the prothorax, the narrow, transverse, 
sharply-defined, black, post-median fascia of the elytra, the elongate-elliptic general 
shape, and the long anterior legs and the very hairy front tarsi of the male readily 
distinguish P. longimanus.

Braziu ! 2, 
Numerous specimens. The markings of the upper surface are variable, according to 
the greater or less predominance of the fuscous scales, the prothorax sometimes having 
a large dark patch on the disc at the base and the pallid median line indistinct. The 
female has a longer and smoother rostrum than the male. In the last-mentioned sex 
the first two ventral segments are depressed down the middle and the anterior tarsi are 
clothed with long, fine, projecting hairs. P. tenuirostris seems to be distributed in 
collections under the MS. name P. glabrirostris, Chevy. 
5. Pantoteles marmoratus, sp.n. (Lab. XI. fige. 1, 1a, 2 .) 
Oblong-ovate, dull, piceous, the rostrum ferruginous, the tarsi black; mottled above with small pale ochreous and 
fuscous scales (the vestiture of the prothorax apparently a little denser along the middle and at the sides, 
and that of the elytra showing a tendency to form a median and a subapical fascia); the under surface 
uniformly clothed with pallid scales, Head densely, finely punctate, sulcate between the eyes ; rostrum 
straight, slender, about as long as the prothorax, depressed and sparsely punctate.at the base. Prothorax 
transversely rounded at the sides anteriorly, constricted and much narrowed in front ; densely, finely 
punctate and obsoletely carinate. Elytra moderately long, much wider than the prothorax, subtriangular, 
the humeri rather prominent ; finely punctate-striate, the interstices flat, densely punctulate. 
Length 43, breadth 22 millim. (@.) 
Hab. Panama, Caldera in Chiriqui (Champion). 
One specimen. Less elongate than P. tenuirostris, the elytra shorter, more trian- 
gular, and relatively wider at the base. ‘The vestiture is similarly coloured in the two 
forms,
