from Ciudad in Durango are much smaller than the type figured, measuring only 
9 millim. (instead of 12) in length.

‘‘ Oblongo-ovata, modice convexa, subnitida, dilute citrina, marginibus albidis, diaphanis ; antennis extrorsum 
nigris; prothorace semicirculari, immaculato, extrorsum confertim reticulato; elytris crebre alutaceis, 
punctis sat profundis, remotis, hinc inde seriatis impressis; subtus margine macula basali suturaque 
apice, nigris.—Long. 10, lat. 7 millim.”

This species is compared with P. ovata, and stated to be nearly one half larger 
than that insect. I am unable to identify it amongst the large number of Mexican 
Physonote before me.
