332 PHYTOPHAGA.—SUPPLEMENT. 
130 (a). Diabrotica quatuordecim-punctata. (Tab. XLITI. fig. 14.) | 
Black, the antenn and legs fulvous ; the head testaceous; thorax testaceous, with four black spots ; elytra 
closely punctured, testaceous, each with seven black spots (1, 2, 2, 2). 
Length 3 lines. 
Head with a deep fovea on the vertex, the latter with two black spots; the antenne extending to the middle 
of the elytra, fulvous, the third joint twice as long as the second, the fourth much longer than the pre- 
ceding one; thorax one-half broader than long, the sides rounded anteriorly, the surface impunctate, with 
two fover and four black spots, the latter placed transversely before the middle ; scutellum black ; elytra 
closely and rather strongly punctured, testaceous, each with seven black spots—one at the shoulder, two 
immediately below it, placed transversely, one near the lateral margin below the middle, another near the 
suture a little lower down, and two near the apex, placed transversely ; underside black ; legs fulvous. 
Hab. Mexico, Omilteme in Guerrero (H. H. Smith). 
A single specimen. The elytral spots are placed in two longitudinal rows, the four 
outer spots at equal distances near the lateral margin, and the three inner ones at 
‘unequal distances near the suture. In the position of the spots the present species 
differs from any of its congeners in this section. 
Diabrotica nitidula (p. 563). 
To the localities given, add :—Mexico, Cordova (Sallé, Hoge). 
150 (a). Diabrotica semiopaca. 
Piceous, the head in part, the thorax, and femora flavous ; elytra black or bronze-black, opaque, closely and 
finely punctured in rows, the interstices finely transversely rugose; the third joint of the antennz 
elongate. 
Length 13 line. 
Head piceous on the vertex, the latter minutely granulate, and with a central depression, the lower part of the 
face flavous, rather convex, with a central ridge, the labrum piceous; the antenne extending to the 
middle of the elytra, piceous, the lower four joints fulvous, the third joint nearly three times as long as the 
second and as long as the fourth ; thorax twice as broad as long, the sides narrowly margined, slightly 
constricted at the base, the disc with a deep oblique depression on either side, the surface impunctate, 
flavous; scutellum black ; elytra with very close and distinct rows of punctures, the interstices minutely 
granulate and finely rugose; underside piceous ; legs fulvous, the posterior tibie and the tarsi nearly 
black. . 
Hab. Mexico, Acapulco in Guerrero (Hége), Yautepec in Morelos (Flohr). 
The head and the underside vary in colour. The long third joint of the antenne, 
and the blackish, opaque, and slightly rugose elytra are the chief characters of this 
species. 
Diabrotica longitarsis (p. 567). 
To the localities given, add :—Mexico, Jalapa (MZ. Trujillo). 
159 (a). Diabrotica ribbei. 
Black; antenne fulvous, the third joint elongate; thorax flavous, depressed at the sides, impunctate; elytra 
finely and irregularly punctured, flavous, a spot on the suture at the base and the posterior third black.
