Allied to A. cylindricus, Bates, from the Amazons, which differs in having a narrow 
tawny-coloured fascia near the apex of the elytra. <A closely allied species occurs near 
Rio de Janeiro. 
A very large number of examples were captured by Mr. Champion; all were found 
by beating the withered, still attached, leaves of fallen trees in fresh clearings in the 
forest.

A. antennato et A. binotato quoad formam similis, sed letius coloratus. Angustissime ovatus, castaneo-fuscus 
politus, vertice thoraceque vitta laterali, elytris utrinque vitta basali ab humero usque versus medium 
discum curvata maculisque duabus posterioribus (altera obliqua subreniformi longe post medium, altera 
minori irregulari paullo ante apicem) ochraceis, guttis nonnullis ochraceis et nigris apud suturam et discum ; 
capite et thorace grosse et discrete punctatis; elytris versus apicem gradatim angustatis, apice oblique 
breviter sinuato-truncatis, angulis suturali et exteriori acutis; corpore subtus polito, lateraliter fulvo- 
maculato; antennis nigris, articulis 1°-3™ totis, 4°, 9° et 10° basi, griseis ; mesosterno vix elevato, supra 
plano vel concavo. 
Long. 4-5 lin. 6 QD. 
Hab. Panama, Volcan de Chiriqui, Bugaba (Champion). 
Similar in form to A. antennatus, but the apex of the elytra rather more strongly 
notched, with the broader external angle of the notch and the sharp sutural spine 
generally longer. In markings it differs conspicuously in the much more compact 
ochreous tomentum and sharper definition of the broad vitte and spots. 
Same habits as the preceding.
