(34) Oodcnias acohsoiiia, sp. nov. 



Ovatum, nitidum, elytris $ aenescentibus, $ subcupreo-nitentibus. Rostrum $ 

 brevius, nitidum, subtiliter punctatum, apice baud dilatato. Antennae graciles, articulis 

 2 basalibus funiculi elongatis, subaequilongis. Oculi convexi. Pronotum nitidum, 

 subtiliter punctatum, antice fortiter angustatum. Elytra nitida, crebre punctulata, 

 punctis quae majora sunt, seriatim dispositis, striis levissimis, vel obsoletis. Tarsorum 

 anticorum lobi mediocres. $ %. Long. 4 — 4'5 mm. 



This species is closely allied to the two preceding, but is a smaller and more 

 shining insect. The puncturation of the elytra shows some variation, the punctures 

 which are disposed in series being considerably coarser in some examples than in 

 others, the density of the interstitial puncturation also varies. 



Hab. Kauai, a few examples taken in the mountains at an elevation of 4000 ft. 



(35) Oodevias aenescens Bohem. 



Oodemas aenescens Boh., Eug. Res. p. 138, t. 2, f. 6. 



(Plate VIII. fig. 23.) 



Hab. Oahu and Lanai mountains. Remarkable for the extremely coarse punctu- 

 ration of the base of the abdomen beneath. The length of the first and second joints of 

 the funiculus of the antennae is a little variable, sometimes one and sometimes the other 

 being slightly the longer.
