310 MEMOIRS ON THE COLEOPTERA 



time ago under the name Aneflus Hnearis Lee. No notes regarding 

 its habits or food-plant have been received. 



Tribe CALLICHROMINI. 



Under this heading I would place all our remaining Cerambycids, 

 except the Clytini and Lepturini and in addition a few aberrant 

 and very limited tribes necessitated by aberrant forms, such as 

 Necydalis. As a section of the subfamily it is distinguished from 

 the preceding tribes principally by having the eyes very finely 

 faceted. 



Callimus Muls. 



A genus of small slender species, with flattened entire elytra and 

 finely faceted eyes. The species are rather numerous in the Pacific 

 region and in Eurasia but are wanting on the Atlantic coast. The 

 four following seem to be undescribed and constitute two well de- 

 fined sections of the genus, represented by ruficollis and cyanipennis 

 of LeConte, who erected for them the genus Pilema, said by Bates 

 to be the same as Callimus: 



Callimus longicollis n. sp. Rather slender; head, antennae, legs and 

 under surface black throughout, the pronotum bright red, largely black 

 at apex and base, the basal black area bilobed anteriorly; elytra bright 

 steel-blue; head about as wide as the prothorax, with rather long neck, 

 finely, closely, longitudinally punctato-rugose, the antennae (cf ) slender, 

 filiform, not quite as long as the body, the third joint much shorter than 

 the fourth and slightly shorter than the first, the erect flying hairs long 

 but sparse; prothorax much longer than wide, obtusely tuberculate at the 

 sides behind the middle, trituberculate on the disk, which is polished 

 and impunctate throughout, very feebly tumid along the median line 

 anteriorly, flat and rugulose toward the basal margin; scutellum small, 

 subquadrate; elytra three times as long as wide, nearly a fourth wider 

 than the prothorax, parallel and straight at the sides, conjointly semi- 

 circularly rounded at apex, the sutural angles acute and very minutely 

 prominent; surface alutaceous or subopaque, strongly, closely punctate, 

 the punctures closely serial in arrangement, a little smaller apically; 

 under surface finely chagrined and subopaque; prosternum red, the coxae 

 and their lateral angulation black; legs moderate, with long flying hair; . 

 Length (cf) 6.2 mm.; width 1.3 mm. California (Kaweah). 



Allied to ruficollis but smaller and differing in its impunctate and 

 basally unimpressed prothorax, the latter with the sides converging 

 from the post-medial rounded prominence to the apex and bisinuate, 

 the apex rounded and narrower than the truncate base.
