This is a very variable species. Figs. 1 & 2 represent Mexican forms in the collection 
of Dr. Signoret, and exhibit the maximum of melanism. Figs. 3 & 4, on the contrary, 
portray the extreme of albinic variation, and represent Guatemalan specimens. 
NEOBORUES, gen. nov. 
Body shining, pilose, and punctate. Head almost vertical, very broad across the eyes, which are very promi- 
nent. Antenne with the basal joint about as long as, or a little longer than, the head and very slightly 
incrassated, the second joint about twice as long as the first, very slightly thickened towards apex. Pro- 
notum long, its length generally almost equalling its breadth, the lateral margins nearly straight, being 
only very slightly concave about centre; posterior margin moderately convex. Corium with the margins 
slightly dilated and convex. Rostrum reaching the intermediate coxe. 
_ Neoborus has some superficial affinities with Systratiotus, Doug]. & Scott, a genus 
recorded by Dr. Reuter as occurring in Texas. 
1. Neoborus saxeus, n.sp. (Tab. XXVII. fig. 5.) 
Ochraceous, coarsely punctate; anterior and posterior margins of the pronotum very narrowly luteous; 
seutellum luteous, with a central basal piceous spot; eyes, an anterior transverse rugosity to pronotum, 
clavus, and costal margin of corium pale castaneous ; corium with a pitchy spot before inner base of cuneus, 
which is luteous; membrane piceous; body beneath and legs ochraceous, apices of the femora more or 
less castaneous, apices of the tarsi piceous. Basal joint of the antenne black; base and apex of rostrum 
piceous. The pronotum and corium are coarsely and the scutellum sparingly punctate. 
Long. 43 millim. 
Hab. Panama, Volcan de Chiriqui 4000 to 6000 feet (Champion). 
2. Neoborus scaber, n. sp. (Tab. XXVII. fig. 6.) 
Allied to the last species but larger, paler in hue; the eyes black; scutellum with the whole disk piceous; 
clavus (excluding extreme apex) and corium (excluding two pale linear fascie) infuscated; cuneus 
infuscated, its outer margin and apex luteous; membrane piceous; body beneath and legs pale ochraceous ; 
margins of sternum and abdomen piceous; femora and legs more or less annulated with brownish ; 
apices of the tarsi piceous; antennew black, base of the first and basal half of the third joint luteous. 
Tong. 5 millim. 
Hab. Guatemata, Cerro Zunil (Champion). 
8. Neoborus hirsutus, n. sp.. (Tab. XXVII. fig. 7.) 
Head and pronotum ochraceous ; eyes and a central longitudinal line to head, two subbasal transverse streaks, 
and some anterior lineate marks to pronotum, scutellum, and corium shiny fuscous ; cuneus reddish, its 
apex and margins luteous; membrane fuscous, the cellular margins ochraceous ; legs and antenne ochra- 
ceous. (Body beneath imperfectly seen, owing to the specimen being carded.) 
Long. 5 millim. 
Hab. GuateMaLa, Pantaleon (Champion). 
In this species the pronotum is somewhat shorter and broader at the base than in 
the two preceding species, thus attaining a subgeneric position.
