From the short diagnosis given, it is impossible to say whether this species is 
correctly placed in Cneorane. 
METACORYNA (p. 605). 
4. Metacoryna levipennis. 
Black, the head, antenne (the last two joints excepted), thorax, and anterior legs flavous; head and thorax 
impunctate ; elytra dark violaceous, impunctate. 
3. Antenne with the ninth joint enormously dilated, concave below, the apical two joints short and pointed. 
Length 14 line. 
Hab. Guatemata (coll. Jacoby). 
Of this species I have received a single male specimen from the Stuttgart Museum. 
It may be known from M. fulvipes and the allied forms by the flavous antenne (the 
last two joints excepted, which are black) ; and by the ninth joint in the male being 
enormously dilated (instead of the eighth, as in M. fulvipes). In this respect M. lav- 
pennis agrees with M. guatemalensis, but in that species the antenne are nearly black, 
and the dilated joint is pear-shaped (not rounded). It also differs from M. guatema- 
lensis in the thorax being much shorter and transverse, and the elytra entirely 
impunctate and of a metallic violaceous colour. The four anterior legs are flavous ; 
the posterior femora are piceous (the posterior tibie and tarsi are broken off). 
5. Metacoryna pretiosa. (Tab. XLIII. fig. 20, ¢.) 
Black, the head metallic violaceous; the thorax flavous, impunctate ; elytra violaceous, very finely punctured 
anteriorly. 
¢. Antenne with the eighth and ninth joints very greatly thickened. 
Length 2 lines. 
Hab. Mexico, Chilpancingo in Guerrero (H. H. Smith). 
A single specimen. MV. pretiosa( ¢ ) agrees in the structure of the antenne with the 
corresponding sex of M. fulvipes, but differs from it in the colour of the head, elytra, 
and legs. The antenne have their lower joints more or less stained with fulvous; in 
the male sex the fifth to the seventh joints are gradually widened, the eighth joint 
greatly dilated and pear-shaped, and the ninth smaller. The head and thorax are 
impunctate, and the elytra have a small longitudinal depression close to the suture 
near the base.
