DEIPYLE.—GLYPTOBARIS. 405 
stout, longer than the head and prothorax, moderately curved, somewhat closely punctate, the apical 
half a little more sparsely punctured in the Q. Prothorax rapidly narrowing from the base, densely, 
finely, confluently punctate, and sometimes with an abbreviated smooth median line. Scutellum hollowed 
in the middle. Elytra sharply, narrowly striate, the stria faintly punctate, the interstices flat, rugosely 
punctate, and with a very fine, more or less distinct, raised line on each side. Pygidium broad, rather 
convex, and closely punctate in the g, smaller, flattened, and rugosely punctured in the ¢. Beneath 
coarsely and densely, the abdomen very sparsely and finely, punctate, the prosternal cavity sharply 
defined and almost smooth. 
Length 34-44, breadth 2-23 millim. (d 9.) 
Hab. Guatemata, San Isidro, Pacific slope (Champion: 3 2); Panama, Volcan de 
Chiriqui (Champion: ¢ ). 
Five specimens, the one with the larger pygidium and more closely punctate 
rostrum assumed to be the male*, the two from Chiriqui in very fresh condition. 
The elytra are bare in places, the ochreous hair-like vestiture thus forming fascie and 
interrupted lines. 
2. Deipyle seminuda, sp.n. (Tab. XX. figg. 9, 9a, 2.) 
Rhomboid-ovate, short, feebly convex above, very shining, rufo-piceous ; the upper surface clothed with a few 
small, hair-like, yellowish-white scales, those on the elytra condensed into two faint interrupted fasciz 
(one basal, the other median), the under surface almost bare. Head closely punctate, obsoletely foveate ; 
rostrum arcuate, moderately stout, much longer than the head and prothorax, sparsely punctate, a little 
smoother in the @. Prothorax rapidly narrowing from the base, sparsely, minutely punctate (except 
along the smooth median line), the punctures becoming coarser at the sides and along the basal margin. 
Elytra short, narrowly crenate-striate, the interstices broad, flat, obsoletely seriato-punctate, feebly 
costate towards the sides and apex. Pygidium very short, closely punctate. Beneath coarsely and 
closely, the abdomen and the median portion of the prosternum very sparsely and finely, punctate. 
Anterior cox rather small, separated by more than their own width. Legs slender. 
Length 23, breadth 13 millim. (¢d @.-) 
Hab. Panama, Bugaba (Champion). 
One pair, the male partially abraded. Shorter, smaller, and smoother than 
D. induta. the vestiture very sparse and fine, the under surface almost bare, the anterior 
coxe smaller and more widely separated, the pygidium very short and inconspicuous, 
the legs more slender. 
GLYPTOBARIS. 
Glyptobaris, Casey, Aun. N. York Acad. Sci. vi. pp. 466, 520 (1892). 
This well-defined genus includes Baridius (Calandra) lituratus, F., from 8. America, 
B. rugatus, Boh., from Mexico, B. rugicollis and B. evulsus, Kirsch, from Colombia, 
and Onychobaris rugicollis, Lec., from N. America, the last-mentioned insect (the 
specific name of which proves to be preoccupied) forming Casey’s type. ‘The different 
species are very closely allied and variable, and they are by no means easy to 
distinguish. The males have two transversely-placed tubercles on the basal portion 
* The sexes of the Palearctic Baris spoliata, Boh., differ in the same way in the form of the pygidium.
