COPTOCYCLA. 187 
6. Coptocycla marmorata. (Tab. X. figg. 2, 9; 24, profile.) 
Subrotundate (3), broad oval (2), convex, dilute flavo-testaceous, shining; the elytra with the suture, the 
humeral callus, the punctures, and some scattered spots and markings castaneous or rufo-castaneous ; the 
legs and antenne testaceous or rufo-testaceous; the body beneath black, with the sides testaceous, the 
abdomen testaceous or rufo-testaceous, the segments broadly infuscate or black in the middle. Antenne 
elongate, slender, filiform, the apical five joints slightly thickened, joint 3 twice as long as 2, 3-11 sub- 
equal in length. Prothorax as in C. dorsoplagiata. Elytra very much wider than, and about three times 
as long as, the prothorax, conjointly rounded at the apex in both sexes, very deeply sinuate-emarginate 
at the base, with prominent obtuse humeri; the disc convex, feebly transversely gibbous below the base, 
and excavate on either side of the suture before this, with rows of very coarse deep punctures, which are 
' interrupted by a >-shaped smooth elevation extending from the post-basal elevation outwards and by 
various oblique or transverse raised spaces which here and there connect the interstices, the latter smooth 
and very uneven; the margins moderately expanded, becoming narrow at the apex, smooth, reticulate, 
and subhyaline, separated from the dise by a row of deep punctures, and transversely plicate internally a 
little before the middle. Claws simple. 
Length 9-93, breadth 8 millim. 
Hab. Mexico, Venta de Zopilote and Mescala, both in Guerrero (H. H. Smith). 
Three specimens. Allied to C. leprosa, but smaller; the elytra feebly gibbous, with 
less expanded margins, the interstices here and there connected by strongly raised 
oblique or transverse elevations; the body beneath partly black. 
7. Coptocycla rufonotata. 
Rotundate, convex, dilute flavo-testaceous, shining ; the elytra with a short streak on the humeral callus, the 
summit of the post-basal elevation, and the punctures rufo-castaneous; the antenna, legs, and under 
surface flavo-testaceous. Antenne and prothorax as in C. dorsoplagiata, the prothorax obsoletely canali- 
- culate at the base only. Elytra one half wider than, and three times as long as, the prothorax, conjointly 
_ rounded at the apex, very deeply sinuate-emarginate at the base, with prominent rounded humeri; the 
disc convex, feebly transversely gibbous below the base, and moderately excavate on either side of the 
suture before this, deeply foveate in the centre before the middle, and with rows of coarse deep punctures, 
which are interrupted (the sutural row excepted) by slightly raised smooth spaces extending outwards 
and downwards from the post-basal elevation, and by a broad, slightly raised, smooth, impunctate, post- 
median fascia, the latter widened externally and extending forwards to the ante-median marginal plica 
and posteriorly to the apex (enclosing a punctured ante-apical triangular space near the suture), the inter- 
_stices smooth ; the margins exceedingly broadly expanded, becoming narrower (though still wide) at the 
apex, smooth, reticulate, and subhyaline, separated from the dise by a row of rather fine punctures, and 
transversely plicate a little before the middle. Claws simple. 
Length 103, breadth 10 millim. 
Hab. Costa Rica (Gaéd, in coll. Janson). 
One specimen, evidently of the male sex. This insect resembles C. leprosa, from 
which it may be known by the elytra being feebly gibbous, more broadly margined 
at the apex, and with the rows of punctures interrupted posteriorly by a very 
large, smooth, slightly raised, impunctate space, the latter obliquely cut off in front 
and. enclosing a triangular punctured space on either side of the suture before the 
apex.
