Hab. Mextco®® (Mus. Vind. Ces.), Cuesta de Misantla (MZ. Trujillo), Temax in 
Yucatan (Gaumer). 
Var. 3. The corium piceous, with the outer margin towards the base and a patch along the middle of the 
apical margin ochraceous. ( 9.) . 
Hab. Mexico, Temax in Yucatan (Gaumer). 
In the typical form of this species the elytra have a very small black spot on the 
disc of the corium, this being sometimes quite obsolete. ‘The variety maculipennis, 
Stal, has the discal spot much larger, often forming a broad more or less interrupted 
transverse fascia. The variety 6, of which a single specimen only has been received, 
has the corium dark, with the exception of the outer margin at the base and a space 
along the middle of the apical margin; this form is very like C. infestans (Klug) 
(=renggeri, H.-S.) *, which has a stout, thickly pilose rostrum, with the first and third 
joints nearly equal in length, the produced anterior portion of the head broader and with 
the sides straighter, the connexivum black at the apex in both sexes, &c. In all the 
varieties of C. dimidiatus the base of the clavus and the apex of the corium are infuscate 
or black. The insect varies greatly in size, this being especially noticeable in the females, 
the elytra in the largest of these not reaching as far as the apex of the sixth segment 
and the connexivum being very broad. The single specimen seen from Honduras, a 
female, is much longer than any of those received by us. We figure a male of the 
typical form and a female of the var. maculipennis, Stal, both from Yucatan.

“Mexico”; the locality, however, requires confirmation, the insect being only recorded from Chili, Paraguay, 
and the Argentine Republic.
