444 BRUCHIDES. 
9. Bruchus godmani. (Tab. XXVI. fig. 3.) 
Convexus, elytris quadratis ; densius vestitus, fusco-ochraceus; elytris ferrugineis, subvariegatis, versus suturam 
plaga fusca ornatis; pygidio utrinque versus apicem fusco-notato; prothorace anterius angusto, ante 
scutellum elevato ibidemque lineis duabus brevibus anterius conjunctis spatiam angustam depressam 
includentibus ; femoribus posterioribus versus apicem dente elongato, et quatuor brevioribus armatis ; 
antennis maris longissime ramosis. 
Long. 33 millim. (capite deflexo). 
Hab. Panama, Bugaba (Champion). 
Only a single example of this graceful insect was obtained, and no doubt it is a male. 
It is allied in many respects to B. juno, but the armature of the femora is intermediate 
between that of the species just mentioned and that of B. brasiliensis; the four teeth 
joined to the larger one are each shorter than its predecessor, the first of them evidently 
springing from the long tooth. The rest of the structure seems very similar to that of 
B. boops. 
10. Bruchus calderensis. 
Convexus, pallide griseo-vestitus, parum variegatus; antennis pedibusque anterioribus testaceis, illis apicem 
versus crassis, articulis penultimis fuscis; elytris ad humeros et ad marginem exteriorem minus argute 
nigro-maculatis; pedibus posterioribus nigro-fuscis, griseo-vestitis, tarsis testaceis ; metasterno anterius 
leviter declivo ; femoribus posterioribus dente elongato posterius tridenticulato armatis. 
Long. 3 millim. (capite deflexo). 
Hab. Panama, Caldera in Chiriqui 1200 feet, Tolé (Champion). 
This species is allied to B. albotectus, but is not half the size of the smallest examples 
of that species, and the metasternum is more rounded and gently declivous in front. 
-The thorax is very narrow in front, with the sides concavely arcuate and the hind angles 
acute, a little raised longitudinally along the middle, and a little depressed on each side 
the middle near the base so as to cause a not very well-marked callosity on each side ; 
it is densely clothed with pallid griseous pubescence and only very obscurely maculate. 
The elytra are very finely striate, the striation being concealed by the very dense pallid 
pubescence, which is maculate only at the shoulders and at the sides a little behind the 
middle; they are without depressions or elevations. The pygidium is densely clothed 
with pale tomentum, and not distinctly maculate. The under surface is blackish, clothed 
rather closely with pallid pile. The antenne have the joints 6-11 each broader than 
long. The hind femora are strongly arched above, little inflated beneath, armed near the 
extremity with a long acute tooth, and with three smaller teeth forming an extension 
backwards of its posterior margin, much as in B. longicollis and the allies; the tibial 
spur is elongate, quite as long as the entire breadth of the tibie at its extremity. 
I do not observe any sexual differences among the four examples that were obtained 
of this species. 
11. Bruchus confinis. 
Convexus, dense pallide griseo-vestitus, parum variegatus, prothorace medio late brunescente ; elytris, presertim
