I have seen a dozen specimens of this species, including those from Guatemala, in 
the British Museum, named by Boheman?. The prothorax in southern specimens is 
sometimes entirely rufo-testaceous. B. insidiosa resembles B. nodosa; but it is 
considerably larger, the elytral elevation is not so prominent, the exterior limb is 
blackish-zeneous, and the prothorax is usually black, the anterior margin excepted. 
The five Panama examples have the elytral elevation a little stronger and more acute 
than in those from Guatemala. 
5. Batonota sexplagiata, (Tab. VIII. figg. 6; 6a, profile.)

Three specimens of a Batonota from the Pacific slope of Guatemala agree with 
‘Wagener’s description ! of B. seaplagiata, except that they have the ground-colour of 
the elytra green (instead of black), and the head, underside, and legs entirely black. 
The anterior edge of the broadly expanded margin of the elytra is straight to the 
humeral angle, this part being distinctly concave in the closely allied B. rufo-ornata. 
6. Batonota rufo-ornata. (Tab. VIII. figg. 7; 7 4, profile.)

Hab. Nicaracua }, Chontales (Janson 2, Belt). 
By mistake, Baly described this species twice. I have seen ten specimens of it, 
varying only in the ground-colour of the elytra, from greenish-eneous to bluish-black 
or black. The type is figured. 
7. Batonota godmani. (Tab. VIII. figg. 9; 9a, profile.)

Three examples of this species are contained in the Baly collection, one of which is 
figured.
