presented by Mr. James Ridings, to whom I dedicate it. It has somewhat 

 the appearance of being a very small specimen of C. Andrewsii Harris, 

 but ou comparison the differences are very apparent; the great diversity 

 in size, the smooth thorax, and the strise of the elytra continuing regular 

 to almost the tip, are characters readily observed. The punctures on the 

 thorax of Andrevjsii cover a considerable portion of the surface, which is 

 also transversely rugose. The thorax of the species above described is 

 not at all rugose, and only a few scattered punctures are visible about the 

 posterior margin; the sides of the thorax are more angulated and more sud- 

 denly constricted posteriorly than in Andreicsii ; the lateral margin of the 

 elytra is regularly and broadly rounded and not flattened or straightened 

 as in the latter species. 



Cyclocephala lurida n. sp. 



Yellowish-brown, punctured; head black; elytra mottled with brown. 



Hah. Texas. (Coll. Entom. Soc. Phila.) 



Body yellowish-brown, punctured. Head black, coarsely punctured be- 

 tween the eyes, smooth on the vertex and basal margin^ clypeus dark ru- 

 fous, roughly and densely punctured. Thorax deeply and sparsely punc- 

 tured, with a smooth dorsal line which divides a large dusky mark on the 

 dorsal surfice; a small, brown, shallow impression on either side before 

 the middle. Scutellum yellowish margined with black, sparsely punctur- 

 ed. Elytra irregularly mottled with brown, somewhat sparsely punctured; 

 humeri prominent; sides deeply impressed near the humeri; suture black. 

 Beneath minutely and closely punctured and clothed with erect yellowish 

 hairs. Legs yellowish-bj'own, punctured; femora slightly tipped with 

 black; tibial spurs black; tarsi brown. Length 7 lines. 



Four specimens from Western Texas, presented by Dr. Geo. H. Horn. 

 The punctures on each elytron are so arranged as to form apparently three 

 smooth, irregular, longitudinal lines, each line being bounded on either 

 side by a regular row of punctures; otherwise the punctures are irregu- 

 larly scattered over the surface. The clypeus is shaped as in immacidata. 

 But the form of the body is more robust than that of the latter species. 



CORYMBITES FULVIPES n. sp. 



Black, clothed with a short whitish pubescence; legs bright fulvous. 



Hah- Virginia. (Coll. Entom. Soc. Phila.) 



Body very elongate, black, shining and clothed with a short whitish
