nearly spotless grey. 
4. Lepturges sejunctimacula. 
L. infilato coloribus similis, sed minor et postice minus angustatus, elytris utrinque prope apicem macula atro- 
fusca insulata primo intuitu distinguendus. Atro-fuscus, flavo-cinereo indutus, thorace vittis duabus 
(antice intus curvatis), elytris lineola basali (suture parallela), gutta humerali, plaga magna mediana 
laterali valde dentata, maculaque integra ante apicem nigris; antennis pedibusque rufo-testaceis, fusco 
plus minusve maculatis ; thorace trapezoidali, spina laterali (conica, acuta) juxta angulum sita, margine 
valde obliquo inter spinam et basin; elytris oblique obtusissime truncatis; femoribus paullo incrassatis, 
haud pedunculatis.

Hab. Mexico, Cordova (Sallé); Nicaragua, Chontales (Belé?).—Sourn America, 
Upper Amazons’. 
A Mexican specimen from the Sallé collection agrees closely with the typical example 
from the Upper Amazons; but other Mexican specimens, and all those I have seen from 
Chontales, differ in the dark spots of the elytra (especially those on the sides and near 
the shoulders) being less connected, and in the basal spot (near the scutellum) forming 
an elongate streak. These latter make some approach to L. fragillimus from the 
Amazons, to which I formerly referred them; but on the examination of a long series 
of both sexes I am inclined to consider them quite distinct from that species..
