Eab. North America, Texas.— Mexico, Yucatan 1 ; Guatemala, Capetillo, Duenas 

 (Champion). 



This seems to be a common species in Guatemala, to judge by the numerous speci- 

 mens received; it varies greatly in size, as much as from 2 to 4 lines, and maybe 

 recognized from the following species by the elytral fulvous band, which is more slender 

 and of greater extent, and by the fulvous colour of the tibiae. The figure is that of a 

 specimen from Capetillo. 



4. Euryscopa scapularis. 



Euryscopa scapularis, Lacord. Mon. p. 505. 

 Eab. Mexico. 



The difference between this and the preceding species is but slight ; the legs in the 

 present one are blackish, and the fulvous spots on the elytra more square-shaped. 



PROCTOPHANA. 



Proctophana, Lacordaire, Mem. Liege, v. p. 490 (1848). 



Two species only are included in this genus— one from Colombia, the other from 

 Brazil. The former has also been received from Central America. 



1. Proctophana basalis. 



Proctophana basalis, Lacord. Mon. p. 492 1 ; Dej. Cat. 3rd ed. p. 440. 



Eab. Nicaragua, Chontales (Belt). — Colombia 1 . 



The single specimen obtained by Belt does not differ from the Colombian form.
