last segment broadly, arcuately emarginate at apex. Prosternum

 long, erect, inconspicuous hairs ; prosternal process narrow, strongly, 

 arcuately elevated between the coxal cavities, and broadly rounded 

 at apex. Legs long, coarsely, densely punctate, somewhat rugose, 

 sparsely clothed with moderately long, whitish hairs; femora sub-

 expanded toward the tips.

2^y^g._Xj.S.N.M. No. 43706. Collected by Brother Koberto, of 

 the La Salle School, Habana, in the Province of Pinar del Rio, 

 Cuba, in 1930, and labeled " Estacion Experimental Agronomica, 

 Cuba, No. 9437." 



Remarks. — Described from the type, a unique male. 



This species is allied to callidioides Serville, but it differs from 

 that species in being uniformly black, and with the elytra coarsely, 

 confluently punctured. 



Subfamily Cerambycinae 



PSEUDOEME, new genus 



Head broad, feebly concave between the antennal tubercles, the 

 front vertical, and wider than long. Mandibles short, robust, 

 arcuate, entire, and rather acute at apices. Ligula corneous. Palpi 

 3-jointed, the maxillary twice as long as the labial, and the apical 

 joints elongate-triangular. Antenna slender and shorter than body 

 in the female, more robust basally and longer than the body in the 

 male, densely ciliate beneath; first joint robust, subcylindrical, with- 

 out a cicatrix at apex, and shorter than the third joint. Eyes large, 

 coarsely granulated, and deeply emarginate. Pronotum about as 

 long as wide, feebly constricted at base, even on disk, rounded but 

 not tuberculate at the sides. Scutellum transversely oval. Elytra 

 elongate, parallel, slightly flattened, and rounded at apex. Abdom- 

 inal segments subequal in length. Mesosternum flat, and very nar- 

 row between the intermediate coxal cavities, which are open exter- 

 nally. Prosternal process very narrow, and not prolonged behind 

 the anterior coxal cavities, which are nearly contiguous, and strongly 

 angulated externally. Legs moderately long, subequal in length; 

 femora robust, flattened, and strongly, abruptly clavate; posterior 

 tarsus with the first joint as long as the following joints united. 



Genotype. — Pseudoeme poolei, new sjJecies. 



This genus belongs to the tribe Gemini and is allied to Oeme New- 

 man, but it differs from that genus in having the maxillary palpi
