130 RHYNCHOPHORA. 
shortly pubescent ; antennz fusco-piceous, cirri of the funiculus fine, club rounded-oval, with a single 
evident suture. Prothorax subtransverse, slightly constricted in front, finely margined and bisinuate at 
base, the sides and apex slightly and separately rounded ; with very fine scattered punctures, coarser at 
the extreme sides, interspaces with traces of strigillation, the median line impunctate, not elevated. 
Scutellum rounded. Elytra a fourth longer than the prothorax and equal in width, finely margined at 
the base, subparallel-sided to the middle; with rows of punctures, which appear striate in certain lights 
only, rather stronger at the base, interstices subconvex, with single series of fine punctures, usually 
double at the base, and of small tubercles on the declivity. Underside black, thinly pubescent. Legs 
pitchy-black, the knees and tarsi reddish. 
Hab. Panama, Bugaba, Tolé (Champion). 
_ The three specimens taken have the cirri of the funiculus short and fine ; nevertheless 
they have a slight frontal impression, so that their sex is uncertain. 
The prothoracic punctuation varies, particularly towards the sides, where it is much 
stronger in one specimen than in the other two. 
4, Loganius exiguus, sp. n. 
Oblongus, nitidus, niger, antennis et pedibus rufescentibus ; prothorace haud trausverso, subtiliter punctato, 
basi marginato ; elytris punctato-striatis, interstitiis squamis erectis uniseriatim instructis. 
Long. 1°7 millim. 
Mas. Fronte impressa. 
Oblong, black, shining. Front (3) impressed, shining and transversely carinate between the antennz ; front 
(@) dull, subconvex, shortly pubescent; antenne testaceous-brown, funicular cirri conspicuous (¢), 
fine (2), club infuscate, oval, with two evident curved sutures. Prothorax as long as broad, little 
narrowed in front, base finely margined, sides and apex separately rounded; disc with a few squamous 
hairs at the sides and apex, finely punctate, the punctures a little coarser laterally, and absent over the 
middle line, interspaces with reticular groundwork, Elytra one-third longer than the prothorax, finely 
margined at the base, subparallel for the anterior half, thence obliquely narrowed towards the apex ; 
punctate-striate, interstices subconvex, on the hinder half with single rows of fine punctures bearing 
short squamose sete. Underside black, strongly punctured along the front of the metasternum. Legs 
piceous-red, the tibiz slender, with the third tarsal joint bilobed. 
Hab. PANAMA, Bugaba (Champion). 
Of this little species two males and a female were taken. It approaches L. atratus 
in form and sculpture, but it is very much smaller and separable by the possession of 
setee on the elytra. 
5. Loganius minusculus, sp. n. 
Oblongo-ovalis, subnitidus, niger, antennis tarsisque testaceis ; prothorace haud transverso, semielliptico, 
dense longitudinaliter punctato-strigillato; elytris obsolete punctato-striatis, interstitiis subconvexis versus 
apicem breviter uniseriatim setosis. 
Long. 1:6 millim. 
Oblong-oval, black. Head dull; front thickly pubescent on either side towards vertex and transversely 
carinate above mouth ; antenne brown-testaceous, funiculus obsoletely appendiculate, club rounded-oval, 
with one evident suture and traces of a second. Prothorax as long as broad, bisinuate and finely margined 
at base, the sides obliquely rounded, the apex obtuse; disc with a few short stout hairs towards 
apex, with oblong punctures and close longitudinal strigillation. Scutellum rounded. Elytra as wide
