LEPTINOTARSA.—DORYPHORA. 255 
Head sparingly punctured and very finely semirugose, the vertex with a blackish spot; antenne black, the 
basal five joints fulvous; thorax three times as broad as long, widened at the middle, the anterior margin 
slightly convex, the posterior margin strongly rounded, the sides slightly converging towards the apex, 
the surface opaque, fulvous, finely and rather closely punctured, the interspaces exceedingly minutely 
punctate or coriaceous, all the margins (or the, basal and apical ones only) very narrowly piceous ; 
scutellum dark fulvous; elytra strongly convex, testaceous, their epipleure fulvous, a subsutural stripe, 
two shorter stripes placed anteriorly (the outer one connected with a stripe turned obliquely upwards), a 
transverse band about the middle, eight or ten spots beyond the middle, and a small spot at the shoulders, 
blackish ; underside blackish-green, with the sides of the breast obscurely fulvous, sometimes paler ; legs 
entirely fulvous. 
Hab. Mexico, Pinos Altos in Chihuahua (Buchan-Hepburn), Ventanas in Durango 
(Hége). 
Like several of its congeners, L. typographica has the elytra marked with dark 
stripes; these stripes, however, in the present species are confined to the anterior 
portion, the posterior part being spotted—five spots running parallel with the suture, 
and some others forming two additional rows on the outer portion of the disc, the spots 
bounded anteriorly by a transverse band at the middle; the short stripe near the 
shoulders is joined in front to the second discoidal one.

Labidomera suturella (p. 240). 
To the Mexican localities given, add:—Temax in Northern Yucatan (Gaumer).

PROSICELA (p. 241). 
Prosicela tibialis (p. 241). 
A renewed examination of this species, which proves to be apterous, has convinced 
me that the true place for it is in Elytrosphera. 
DORYPHORA (p. 242). 
Doryphora semiambita (p. 245). 
To the localities given, add:—Mexico, Jalapa in Vera Cruz, Tapachula in Chiapas 
(Hoge), Teapa in Tabasco (H. H. Smith); Guatemata, El Rincon in San Marcos 
(Richardson), San Juan in Vera Paz (Champion). 
Apparently a common insect in Tabasco. 
Doryphora decorata (p. 250). 
To the locality given, add :—Pawnama, Volcan de Chiriqui (Champion).
