CHRYSODINA, 185 
Of this curious species more than twenty specimens were obtained by Herr Hoge 
during his second expedition. 
9 (a). Chrysodina pilosa. 
Carysodina pilosa, Lefévre, Bull. Soc. Ent. Fr. 1887, p. clv °. 
Hab. Panama, Bugaba, Volcan de Chiriqui (Champion '). 
This is a pubescent species which differs from C. pubescens in the closely punctured 
and more shining elytra and their much longer pubescence ; the thorax is very strongly 
rugose-punctate, and the elytra are finely granulate, with more distinct rows of punc- 
tures; the pubescence is long, silky, and whitish in appearance. 
9 (ps). Chrysodina fulvicornis. 
Below blackish, the sides of the breast and abdomen metallic greenish, the antenne and legs fulvous; thorax 
reddish-cupreous, minutely punctured ; elytra metallic green, rather remotely punctate-striate. 
Length 1] line. 
Of subcylindrical, oblong shape; the head metallic green, rather strongly but not very closely punctured, the 
space above the insertion of the antenne obscure cupreous; labrum and palpi fulvous; antenne scarcely 
extending beyond the base of the thorax, fulvous, the last five joints thickened ; thorax strongly transverse, 
widened at the middle, the sides moderately rounded and narrowed towards the apex, the surface extremely 
finely and rather remotely punctured, bright reddish-cupreous; elytra metallic greenish, proportionately 
strongly punctate-striate, the punctures becoming finer towards the apex, and (like the striz) somewhat 
remotely placed; legs fulvous. 
Hab. Mexico, Cerro de Plumas (Hége). A single specimen. 
C. fulvicornis differs from C. championi and C. ornaticollis in its smaller size and 
different shape, and in the fulvous antenne and legs. 
Chrysodina purpureicollis (p. 109). 
To the Mexican localities given, add :—Pinos Altos in Chihuahua (Buchan-Hepburn), 
Ciudad in Durango (Forrer), Juquila (Flohr), Zacualtipan in Hidalgo, Jalapa (Hége). 
Chrysodina cupriceps (p. 109). 
To the localities given, add:—Mexico, Tapachula in Chiapas (Hége). 
The broad, oblong shape, less transverse thorax, proportionately long antenne, broad 
scutellum, and medially constricted prosternum, give C. cwpriceps a very different facies 
to the other members of the genus Chrysodina; it might, perhaps, equally well be 
placed in Noda, near NV. curtula, Jac., a species of nearly similar shape and structure. 
Chrysodina minuta (p. 110). 
This species was provisionally placed by me in Chrysodina, although the more elongate 
shape and long prosternum suggest the possibility of its requiring another genus for its
