TELAMONA. 145 
5. Telamona salvini. 
Telamona salvini, Dist. Ent. Monthly Mag. xvi. p. 11 (1879) '. 
Hab. GuatemMa.a, Chinautla 4100 feet (Salvin 1), Guatemala city (Champion). 
The specimens from the two localities differ somewhat inter se, and may belong to 
two different species. The insect is distinguished by the truncate dorsal process; it is 
very closely allied to 7’. spreta, Goding, and is perhaps not really distinct from it. 
The latter species has the dorsal protuberance broadly and evenly truncate as in 
T. salvini, but it is set further back from the metopidium and has the two apical 
angles rounded ; in 7. salvint the hinder angle is sharp and somewhat produced, and 
the front angle is more broadly rounded. | 
The colour of this species, like that of the other. members of the genus, is variable ; 
the pronotum in the type specimen is almost unicolorous brown, with darker markings 
behind, whereas in the example from Guatemala city it is much mottled with griseous 
and fuscous-brown. 
6. Telamona albidorsata, sp.n. (Tab. IX. figg. 8, 8a.) 
Fusco-picea, nitida, pronoto fortiter, postice rugosius, punctato, ad latera maculis minutis albidis irrorato et 
dorso fere ab apice protuberantie ad apicem posticum sat late albido, ill4 elevata, simplici, vix porrecta, 
apice rotundato, antice abrupte in metopidium sinuatim declivi, postice lenius in processum posticum 
mergente, apice hujus nigro, humeris obtusis, leviter prominulis; tegminibus apicem prothoracis super- 
antibus, parte apicali infuscaté; pedibus piceo-testaceis. 
Of a fuscous colour, with the pronotum furnished with a broad and distinct white or greenish-white band 
along its whole upper ridge from near the apex of the dorsal protuberance to the apex of the posterior 
process; the sides, too, are irrorated with small spots of the same colour; the dorsal protuberance is 
simple, slightly porrect, rounded at the apex, abruptly and with a very slight sinuation declivous in front, 
and behind merging with a strong and even sweep into the posterior process, with which it forms a very 
obtuse and hardly perceptible angle behind the middle; tegmina fusco-hyaline, clearer on the external 
margin and broadly infuscate at the apex ; legs pitchy testaceous. 
Long. 94 millim. ; lat. int. hum. 42 millim. 
Hab. Mexico, Rinconada in Vera Cruz (Schaus). 
One male specimen. 
7. Telamona satyrus, sp. n. (Tab. IX. figg. 9, 9a.) 
Brunnea, piceo griseoque variegata, capite leviter, pronoto sat fortiter punctato, postice rugoso; humeris ut in 
specie precedenti valde prominentibus, auritis; protuberantia dorsali simplici, haud truncata, apice 
rotundato, in metopidium sat abrupte declivi, postice ad basin fortiter impresso et sinuatim in processum 
posticum mergente ; tegminibus hyalinis ad apicem et interdum in medio brunneis; pedibus testaceis, 
tarsis infuscatis. 
A rather large species, of a brown colour, variegated with fuscous and griseous ; pronotum strongly punctured, 
with traces of rugose raised lines at the sides; shoulders strongly prominent, auriculate ; dorsal protuber- 
ance nasute, rounded and slightly deflexed at the apex, with a deep and strong, though small impression 
on each side at the base; the dorsum, if viewed from the side, extends in a broad sinuation into the 
posterior process, which is long and nearly reaches the apex of the tegmina ; the latter are hyaline, with 
the apex at least brown or smoky ; legs testaceous, with the tarsi infuscate. 
Long. 103-11 millim.; lat. int. hum. 7 millim.
