ART. 22 NEW CERAMBYCID BEETLES FISHER 15 



broad area surrounding the eburneous spots, where the surface is 

 nearly glabrous, and coarsely punctate, with a short, white hair 

 arising from each puncture ; each elytron ornamented with two pairs 

 of widely separated, rounded, eburneous spots, the inner spot of the 

 basal pair slightly longer than the other spots. 



Abdomen beneath densely clothed with long, recumbent, brown- 

 ish-yellow pubescence, which nearly conceals the surface; surface 

 finely, densely punctate, more coarsely on the prosternum. Middle 

 and posterior femora bispinose, with the two spines of each femur 

 long and about equal in length. 



Length, 21.5 mm. ; width, 5.5 mm. 



Type locality. — Guantanamo, Cuba. 



Type. — In American Museum of Natural History. Collected at 

 light. May 25, 1911, by C. T. Ramsden. 



Remarks. — Described from the type, a female. 



This species can be separated from the other described species of 

 this genus from the West Indies by having the apical angles of 

 the pronotum strongly swollen, and by the small rounded eburneous 

 spots on the elytra being broadly surrounded by a nearly glabrous 

 blackish area. 



EBURIA PORTORICENSIS, new species 



Female. — Form rather broadly elongate. Above and beneath 

 reddish brown, the legs and antennae slightly paler, surface nearly 

 concealed by the dense, brownish-white pubescence, except around the 

 eburneous spots, where it is nearly glabrous, and each elytron orna- 

 mented with two pairs of small, oblong, eburneous spots. 



Head transverse in front, deeply, arcuately, transversely grooved 

 behind the epistoma, narrowly, longitudinally grooved between the 

 antennal tubercles, which are strongly elevated and Avidely separated, 

 densely clothed with long, recumbent, yellowish-white pubescence, 

 which conceals the surface; eyes deeply emarginate, separated from 

 each other on the top by about the width of the upper lobe. Antenna 

 slightly longer than the body, basal joint slightly more coarsely 

 punctured than following joints, and all joints rather densely clothed 

 with short, recumbent, whitish pubescence, with numerous long, erect 

 hairs on the underside of joints; first joint robust, strongly clavate, 

 and one-half as long as the third joint, which is slightly longer than 

 the fourth; joints 4 to 10 subequal in length; eleventh joint slightly 

 longer than the tenth. 



Pronotum as long as wide, and slightly narrower at apex than at 

 base; sides sinuate, parallel posteriorly, feebly, obliquely narrowed 

 anteriorly, and armed on each side with a long, acute spine near 

 middle, and a large, obtuse, glabrous callosity near the apical angle ;
