324 PHYTOPHAGA.—SUPPLEMENT. 
CORALA (p. 482). 
. 8. Coraia apicicornis. (Tab. XLIII. fig. 6.) 
Pale fulvous, the antenne (the apical joint excepted), the middle of the breast, and the legs partly, black ; 
thorax with seven spots, strongly rugose; elytra obscure fusco-seneous, rather strongly rugose, glabrous. 
Length 32 lines. . 
Head longitudinally grooved in the middle in front, with a blackish patch on the vertex, the latter strongly 
rugose, the rest of the surface pale fulvous; labrum and palpi black; antenne extending to about the 
middle of the elytra, black, the apical joint fulvous, the third and fourth joints equal, the seven basal 
joints shining, the others opaque; thorax twice as broad as long, the sides strongly widened or suban- 
gulate at the middle, the posterior angles acute, the surface obsoletely impressed at the sides, strongly 
rugose, testaceous, with four piceous spots placed transversely before and three others, larger, below the 
middle; scutellum black, strongly punctured ; elytra obscure sneous or nearly black, closely rugose, the 
epipleure distinct nearly to the apex; underside pale fulvous, the middle of the breast black; the knees, 
the lower portion of the tibiz, and the tarsi black; tibie distinctly sulcate; the first joint of the posterior 
tarsi as long as the following two joints together. 
Hab. Mexico, Ventanas in Durango (I/ége). 
A species easily known by the seven-spotted thorax and the variegated legs. It 
agrees with Coraia in having the third and fourth joints of the antenne equal in length ; 
the epipleurz, however, are prolonged beyond the middle of the elytra, and the surface 
of the latter is glabrous and rugose. Numerous examples. 
| NESTINUS (p. 483). 
5. Nestinus longicornis. 
Obscure fuscous or fulvous, finely pubescent, the antenna, tibie, and tarsi nearly black; thorax irregularly 
rugose, with two fovese and three black spots; elytra very finely rugose, pubescent. 
Length 34 lines. . 
dg. Head finely rugose on the vertex, the frontal elevations smooth and shining; antenne nearly extending to 
the apex of the elytra, black, the fourth joint much longer than the third, the following joints gradually 
shortened ; thorax nearly three times broader than long, the sides rounded at the middle, the angles tuber- 
culiform, the surface with an oblique fovea on each side, rather shining, irregularly rugose and punctured, 
with three small blackish spots placed transversely; scutellum fuscous, pubescent, its apex truncate; 
elytra parallel, convex, very finely and evenly rugose, and sparingly clothed with short greyish pubescence, 
the epipleure rather narrow, disappearing below the middle; the first joint of the posterior tarsi as long 
as the following two joints together ; claws bifid. 
Hab. Mexico, Matamoros Izucar and Atlixco, both in Puebla (Hége). 
N. longicornis might easily be mistaken for Coraia maculicollis. It is, however, less 
robust; the structure of the antenne is different; and the elytra have no trace of the 
bluish hue peculiar to Coraia. The female is more dilated posteriorly, and the antenne 
in this sex are, as usual, shorter. 
TRIRRHABDA (p. 484). 
1 (a). Trirrhabda vicina. 
Pale flavous, the antenne black; head and thorax strongly punctured, the former with the vertex, and the
