medially, the ventral surface with larger, shallow, separated punc- 

 tures. Length 16-17 mm. 



cf. — Colored like female but more coarsely sculptured; cl}'peus 

 shorter, finely punctured, and in addition with a few shallow 

 punctures, its fore margin more incurved ; flagellum rufous api- 

 cally; space between hind ocelli slightly greater than that between 

 them and eyes; first joint of median tarsi stout, curved, clothed 

 with pale hairs within, not much, if anything, longer than half 

 its tibia. 



Chapada, March, November. Five females, two males. Seems 

 to be close to M. anomala Sauss. There is quite a distinction be- 

 tween the males of this species and angulosa Sauss., in the shape 

 of the first joint of middle tarsi. 



Nortonia carinulata Spin. (= Montezumia carinulata (Spin.) Sauss.). 



One specimen. Chapada, November. In the six-jointed max- 

 illary -, and four-jointed labial palpi, this insect differs from 

 Montezumia, in which genus de Saussure placed it, founding there- 

 for the division Parazumia, which name will probably take prece- 

 dence over Nortonia, which was not described until twenty-five 

 years later. . ,^ .^ ^,.,
