THE CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST. 61 



D. cyaiieo-macuiaia, nov. sp. (Jac. in litt.). 



Head and thorax yellow ; antennae, except the extreme base, black- 

 Thorax bifoveate and depressed ; scutel yellow ; elytra yellow, slightly 

 dilated at the rear thickly, coarsely and subseriately punctured, with a 

 large cyaneous blue spot occupying the whole apical third, leaving the 

 extreme margin narrowly flavous to the tip. Body beneath paler yellow, 

 legs yellow, with tibire, tarsi and upper surface of apex of femora black- 

 Length, 5j^ mm. 



Five examples, Callanga, Peru. 



This species has been distributed with the manuscript name cyaneo- 

 viaculata Jac. Of what purport to be three co-types sent me by Messrs. 

 Staudinger & Bang-Haas, two belong to a different genus. The antennae 

 attain the apical spot ; joint 3 a trifle shorter than 4. The thorax is finely 

 but obviously punctulate, while the elytra show here and there fragments 

 of smooth lines between the punctures. In one of the specimens the 

 apical spot includes the side margin, in the typical form it does not. 



D. cyaiieo-plagiata, nov. sp. 



Head yellow ; mouth-parts dark ; antennae black, piceous at base, 

 joints 9-1 r flavous, with extreme tip of last dark. Thorax flavous, 

 bifoveate, a sublateral dark streak on each side, not attaining either edge ; 

 scutel flavous ; elytra flavous rufous, dilated behind, coarsely thickly 

 punctured, with a common apical cyaneous blue spot, which does not 

 attain either the side or apex. Body beneath flavous, legs flavous, with 

 apex of femora and tibiae and tarsi black. Length, 41^ mm. 



One example, Peru, green label (Callanga ?). 



Superficially like cya?ieo-fnaculata, but the light joints of the antennae 

 and the black streaks of the thorax at once separate it. The elytral spot 

 is smaller ; the elytral punctuation is coarse, subseriate in the disk, and 

 becomes obsolete behind and at the sides. 



A CORRECTION. 



From the description of Gnorimoschema septentrionella, in the 

 December number, p. 422, some words have been left out. The descrip- 

 tion of the hind wing ot the insect should read : Hind wing Ù2iiV. grey — 

 dries with a gloss. Fringe lengthening towards the body to 3^2 milli- 

 metres at the longest part, light brown. — T. W. F.
