ANTHOCORIS. 325 
5. Anthocoris variicornis, n. sp. 
Comparatively broad, black, the elytra fuscous, with the margins of the embolium ochreous; the antenns 
with the basal two-thirds of each of the joints 2 and 3 ochreous; the legs ochreous, with the apices of 
the tibiz and tarsi, and the femora to near the tip, black ; opaque, sparsely clothed with a very fine 
golden pubescence, which is subserially arranged on the elytra. Head and pronotum rugulose, the inter- 
ocular portion of the former nearly twice as wide as one of the eyes, the latter small, the pronotum not 
sinuate at the sides; antenne comparatively short, joints 1 and 3 subequal in length, 3 about twice as 
long as 1, 4 longer than 3. Elytra as in A. variipes. 
‘Length 33, breadth 13 millim. (@.) 
Hab. Panama, Volcan de Chiriqui 8000 feet (Champion). 
One mutilated specimen. It is perhaps an extreme form of A. variipes, but the 
relative lengths of the joints of the antenne are different. 
6. Anthocoris rufotinctus, n. sp. (Tab. XIX. fig. 24.) 
Narrow, nigro-piceous, the posterior lobe of the pronotum rufo-testaceous, the elytra sordid ochreous, with the 
apical half of the corium infuscate and the outer edge of the cuneus rufescent, the membrane uniformly 
smoky; the antenne with joints 1 and 4 fuscous, 2 rufo-testaceous, and 3 ochreous ; the legs piceous, the 
anterior and intermediate tibize, and the bases of the tarsi, ochreous; opaque, sparsely clothed with a fine 
golden pubescence. Head (except in front) rugulose, somewhat exserted, the interocular space slightly 
wider than one of the eyes, the latter small; antenne rather slender, joint 2 a little more than twice as 
long as 1, 3 much longer than 1 and shorter than 4; rostrum reaching the anterior cox. Pronotum 
rugulose, rounded at the sides in front, very feebly depressed on the disc. Elytra parallel, smooth, the 
membrane with the outer nervure only distinct. 
Length 21, breadth Z millim. (¢.) 
Hab. Guatemaa, Cerro Zunil (Champion). 
One specimen. Much smaller than J. variipes, the head more exserted, the antennz 
not so stout, and with the second and third joints entirely pale, the pronotum not 
sinuate at the sides and with the posterior lobe rufo-testaceous, the cuneus rufescent 
externally. 
7. Anthocoris dentipes, n. sp. (Tab. XIX. fig. 25, ¢.) 
Narrow, deep black, the shoulders of the elytra obscure ferruginous, the tarsi testaceous at the base ; opaque, 
the head and the anterior half of the scutellum shining, clothed with a widely scattered golden pubescence, 
which is serially arranged on the elytra, and also with a few long, erect, blackish hairs. Head smooth ; 
the eyes large in the male, much smaller in the female; antenne rather short, stout, joint 2 thickening 
outward and about two and one-half times the length of 1, 3 longer than 1 and a little shorter than 4. 
Pronotum slightly depressed on the disc, rugulose, rounded at the sides in front. Elytra parallel to the 
apex of the embolium, smooth, the membrane without distinct nervures. Anterior femora in the male 
armed with a short tooth on the lower side towards the apex. 
Length 25-27, breadth 4-1 millim. (¢ 2.) 
Hab. Panama, Tolé, Pefia Blanca (Champion). 
Two specimens. The male (which is ‘ina mutilated condition) has the anterior 
femora armed with a short tooth beneath, exactly as in the Brazilian Zopherocoris 
armatus, Reut., the type (@) of which is before me; it is also much narrower than the 
female and has large eyes. The female has the femora unarmed and the eyes quite
