232 SUBFAMILY X. CURCULIOXIX.i:. 



third extending from second to fifth striae; antenna) and legs nearly black. 

 Beak shorter than thorax, rather stout, nearly straight, flattened and finely 

 tricarinate above. Thorax longer than wide, gradually slightly narrowed 

 in front, sides nearly straight, constricted near apex; disc uneven, with 

 short deep grooves and ridges and a broad shallow dorsal channel in- 

 terrupted at middle. Elytra nearly one-half wider than thorax, humeri 

 oblique, sides feebly converging behind the base; intervals broad, feebly 

 convex, each with a row of very short whitish bristles. Length 4 4.3 mm. 



Dunedin, Fla., Jan. 9 April 4. Described from Enterprise. 

 Fla. Recorded from Irviugton, New Jersey, July 12. 



329 (- -). BAGOITS MACULATUS sp. uov. 



Oblong-oval, robust. Black, densely clothed with clay-yellow and 

 slate-gray scales, the pale ones forming a median stripe on head and beak, 

 a broad stripe each side of thorax and numerous small spots and dots over 

 the elytra; the white spot on third interval near declivity small, round, 

 subconical; funicle of antennae, tarsi and apical third of tibia? dark red. 

 Beak three-fourths the length of thorax, rather stout, curved, densely scaly. 

 Thorax subcylindrical, as long as wide, sides nearly straight, strongly con- 

 stricted near apex; disc coarsely and densely granulate and with a shallow 

 median groove. Elytra behind the humeri one-half wider than thorax, 

 humeri oblique, prominent, subangulate, sides feebly converging from be- 

 hind the humeri to declivity, then strongly so to apex; striae fine, intervals 

 slightly convex, the fifth with a small white tubercle on declivity. Tibiae 

 stout, strongly curved near apex, and with a long stout hook; tarsi short, 

 the third joint not broader nor emarginate. Length 4 mm. (W. 8. B.) 



Dunedin, Fla. ; Feb. 14 March 24 ; two specimens from be- 

 neath boards near ponds. The large size, distinctly maculate 

 elytra and tibia* red only near apex, separate this from all others. 



330 ( ). BAGOUS LUXATUS sp. nov. 



Oblong-oval, robust. Black, densely clothed with clay-yellow and 

 fuscous-brown ocellate scales, the former covering the head and beak and 

 forming a broad stripe along each side of thorax and elytra; this stripe 

 with an oblique spur extending from basal third of elytra to a broad, 

 lunate white spot, concave behind, which crosses the suture at apical 

 third; antennae, except the club, tibiae and tarsi reddish-brown. Beak 

 shorter than thorax, rather slender; front with an oblong fovea. Thorax 

 as long as wide, sides almost straight, feebly constricted near apex; disc 

 with a faint median channel, covered with rather coarse granules. Elytra 

 behind the humeri one-half wider than thorax, humeri oblique; sides 

 feebly converging for three-fourths their length, then strongly so to the 

 compressed and subacute apex; third, fifth and seventh intervals more 

 convex, the third more so at apical fourth, the fifth with a small conical 

 tubercle on declivity. Length 3.4 mm. (W. 8. B.} 



Ft. Myers. Dunedin and Lake Okeechobee, Fla., scarce; March 

 1 22. The arrangement of the pale and dark scales on elytra 

 taken with the oblique humeri separate this from all other 

 species.
