784 REVISION OF THE AMYCTERIDES, iv., 



under the name of '■'■dohns, Boisd.(?)," proved to be a specimen of 

 >S'. subsequens. 



While I think it likely that this synonymy will prove correct, 

 I do not think it advisable, at present, to sink Macleay's name 

 for Boisduval's. 



SCLERORINUS SUBCARINATUS, n.Sp. 



^. Elongate, ovate; of median size. Black, opaque; without 

 clothing above, save for a few minute scales in depressions; with 

 conspicuous patches of golden-yellow pubescence on the sides of 

 the prothorax, the metasternum, and first abdominal segment; 

 with a bright golden-brown median vitta, and a few, long, black 

 seta^ intermingled. Set fie black. 



Head continuous with rostrum above; the external, rostral 

 ridges continued back on to head, but not carinate, with a nar- 

 row, median line free from setj^, but not raised, elsewhere strongly 

 nigrosetose. Rostrum little excavate, external ridges subparallel; 

 median carina raised, not very prominent, separated from head 

 by a small fovea; sublateral sulci rather shallow, deeper, fovei- 

 form at base. Prothorax (5x5 "5 mm.) moderately strongly 

 rounded at sides; apical margin lightly sinuate above, with pro- 

 minent, ocular lobes; disc closely set with small, rather depressed 

 granules, frequently subconfluent, but nowhere obsolete, except 

 immediately along anterior margin; sides only granulate above. 

 Elytra (10-5 X 6"5 mm.) rather strongly rounded on sides; base 

 moderately deeply emarginate, humeri prominent, noduliform; 

 disc rather deeply striate, with small, open punctures in strij^e, 

 each subtended by a seta; interstices raised, costiform, narrower 

 than the stride, edge very obsoletely serrate, serrations more 

 definitely granuliform on the more lateral interstices, and on the 

 declivity, each with a long, decumbent seta. Sides with closely 

 set, rounded, depressed granules on the interstices, the latter not 

 costate. Beneath, flattened. Anterior femora not ridged; 

 middle and posterior tibise with a deep, subapical emargination. 



9. Similar to (J, more ovate; sculpture similar, but elytral, 

 intrastrial granules distinct; beneath, convex, the median vitta
