ANTODICE. 
Antodice, Thomson, Syst. Ceramb. p. 128 ; Lacordaire, Gen. Col. ix. p. 900. 
A genus very closely allied to Hrenica, differing only in the closer approximation of 
the eyes on the crown, and the rounded, instead of acute, apices of the elytra. The 
long antennal scape, which distinguishes the typical species of Hrenica, is not constant 
in that genus; otherwise it would be a good differential character, the scape in Antodice 
being short. Neither is the notch of the middle tibie, pointed out by Lacordaire as 
distinguishing Antodice, here of systematic value, as it is well developed in Hrenica 
hirticornis. 
The geographical range of Antodice is similar to that of Hrenica; but it extends a 
little further north, into Mexico.

mediis elytris, signaturis tribus prope apicem (quarum prima S-formis est) eretaceo-albis ; corpore subtus 
usque abdominis apicem lateraliter albo-maculato; antennis pedibusque fulvis, illarum articulis a tertio 
dimidio apicali fuscis. 
Long. 6 lin.

AMILLARUS. 
Amillarus, Thomson, Arch. Ent. i. p. 312 (1857). 
The following is the only known species :— 
1. Amillarus apicalis. (Tab. XV. fig. 14.) 
Amillarus apicalis, Thomson, Class. Long. p. 44 (1860), g’. 
Amillarus erythroderus, Chevrolat, Journ. of Ent. i. p. 189 (1861), ¢ 2, 
Amillarus mutabilis, Bates, Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. ser. 3, xvii. p. 482 (1866), ¢ 2°. 
Hab. Nicaracua, Chontales (Belt); Panama (Boucard).—Soutn America, Colombiat, 
Venezuela’, Amazons?. 
The males have the apical portion of the elytra to a greater or less extent black ; in 
the females the elytra are entirely black. The legs vary in colour, at least in the speci- 
mens from the Amazons. My. Belt obtained only one female example from Chontales.
